This alone should disqualify him from serving on the Supreme Court. How can you have a judge that lies to get what he wants be judging others behavior?

My dad did not serve in the 2nd WW and nearly lose his life for it to come to this. He did die at 45 yrs., and I feel what he experienced contributed.

We are currently in a very low place in this country and I am hoping that we can recoup the "democratic process and decorum" that extreme amounts of money have helped to destroy.

(20,249 posts)Yes, we are at an extreme low. My Faith is sustaining me, but I'm only human like all others who feel anguish and not despondency, but just getting weary of all of this.
