Rushpuglitards outraged over rapid selection of Sotomayer

GOP: "Obama is rushing his SCOTUS pick through!!!!"
Reality: Obama giving more time for Sotomayer than Bush did for Roberts.

"They want the shortest timeline in recent memory for someone with the longest judicial record in recent memory," lied pudfaced KY Sen. Mitch McConnell. "This violates basic standards of fairness and it prevents senators from carrying out one of their most solemn duties."

Judiciary Committee chairman Pat Leahy said McConnell should just shut his fucking pie-hole and think back a few years, as he is just trying to ensure that Sotomayor's confirmation timetable tracks with the one for Chief Justice John Roberts, who got a vote 72 days after Il DuceBag nominated him in 2005.

Well, he should have, anyway.
