That's why he won't even schedule a hearing.

Grassley Admits Conservative Groups Are Behind His Supreme Court Blockade

Submitted by Ari Rabin-Havt on Thursday, 4/7/2016 10:39 am In 2005,

Sen. Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, accused Democrats of being beholden to “far left pressure groups” and “out of touch with the vast majority of Americans” when it came to judicial confirmations. Today, Grassley admits that “conservative groups are very much behind” his obstructionism as chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee, where he has refused to so much as hold a hearing on President Obama’s Supreme Court nominee Merrick Garland. 2005: “The reality is that today's Democrat Party seems to be beholden to far left pressure groups who know their radical agenda for America can only be implemented by judicial fiat. I am sad to say that the other party has expressed an unquestionable loyalty to what is probably their base but a base out of touch with the vast majority of Americans.” 2016: “Conservative groups are very much behind what we’re trying to do,” Grassley said following a town hall event at Northwestern College in Orange City. “They figure that if this president appoints somebody, you’re going to have a lot of negative freedom-of-religion decisions, a lot of negative gun decisions, a lot of negative political-speech decisions. So we want to make sure the court doesn’t veer to the left.” Grassley said on the Senate floor yesterday that he only wants to confirm justices who “vote in a way that advances conservative policy.”

1. Democracy and the constitution have been annoyances for these folks for a long

time, at least they are admitting they want activist justices who will transform the country into their complexion.

2. Grassley is a traitor to the GOP. He is saving that nomination/appointment

for Pres. Sanders.

8. His base are the Ultra-Conservative

Germans in and around the Pella and Iowa City area. Appears he is suffering from Alzheimer's early stages.

5. Ahh the old "out of touch with the vast majority of Americans" line

They love repeating that one despite polling on issue after issue that paints a different story.

Like on this one for instance...


SCOTUS Nomination: What Polls Say

The death of Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia has opened a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court. After Obama nominates someone to replace Scalia, do you think the Senate should (hold hearings and vote on whether to accept the nomination), or should the Senate (NOT hold hearings, which would block the nomination and leave it to the next president)? Do you feel that way strongly or somewhat?
Should hold hearings: 63 percent
Strongly, 44 percent
Somewhat, 19 percent
Should not hold hearings: 32 percent
Somewhat, 6 percent
Strongly, 25 percent
No opinion: 5 percent

7. I find it interesting how

he and his buddies keep outing themselves thinking nobody can undo them.

This election is going along like the wildest roller-coaster ride in history... so far and it's only early April. I can't even imagine what everything will look like in October and then there's that inevitable "surprise" thing.
