LOL: Neil Gorsuch's New Book Laments Loss Of Civility

[Soph0571]

Justice Neil Gorsuch is following the path of Supreme Court colleagues-turned-authors in a new book in which he laments the loss of civility in public discourse.

The 52-year-old justice wrote “A Republic, If You Can Keep It” because Americans should remember that their political opponents “love this country as much as we do,” Gorsuch said in an interview with The Associated Press in his Supreme Court office. The book is being published Tuesday.

Hypocritical fuckers, every single one...

[gulliver]

1. Accepting a stolen Supreme Court seat was bad for the country he supposedly loves.

[GoCubsGo]

2. Says the guy whose political party's MO is the demonization of political enmies,

and painting them as unAmerican. Go fuck yourself, Neil. I can't wait to see your crappy book on the shelf in the Dollar Tree in a few months. Still won't buy it, and I doubt anyone else will, either

3. --- hope my copy gets here soon.

I'm almost out of bird cage liner.

[CurtEastPoint]

4. With a heartfelt dedication to Moscow Mitch?

[Soph0571]

5. Of course and a picture credit...

[Joe941]

12. From Russia with love.

[bdamomma]

6. That's pretty good

let's get under his skin he deserves it.

[paleotn]

7. F you, Neil.

His side has done more to NOT keep the republic than anyone since 1860.

[JI7]

8. fuck these people

[Farmer-Rick]

9. RepubliCONS who side with Putin and support

Putin's many puppets do not love this country. They only love themselves. Moscow Mitch, Traitor Trump, the NRA, the suck up Supremes, all of them love Russian money much, much more.

[mountain grammy]

10. Go fuck yourself Neil

Civil enough for ya?

[zaj]

11. No matter who the messenger is, it true

[dalton99a]

13. Fuck Neil Gorsuch

[Mc Mike]

14. The Fascism Forever Club, and other clubs that were definitely jokes at the time:

15. So civility now includes total rejection of civility towards President Obama?

The current President started his run by rejecting the citizenship of his predecessor.

[FakeNoose]

20. I believe that was the whole point of Chump's candidacy

...to get revenge against Obama. All Chump ever cares about is getting revenge, and he has said as much in his books. It's easy enough to fake civility with totalitarian despots though.

[DFW]

16. That is sort of like John Bolton lamenting the loss of pacifism.

Or Donald Trump bemoaning the disappearance of chivalry.

Have a beer, Neil. I'm sure fellow Justice Brett will tout its soothing, therapeutic qualities.

[Pepsidog]

17. These Republicans have no shame

[sharedvalues]

18. You mean "Illegitimate Justice Neil Gorsuch's New Book"

Dems should be calling for Gorsuch’s impeachment. It will never happen in today’s Senate. But we should build popular support for impeaching Gorsuch. And yes, the Constitution allows the House to impeach judges for the reasons they deem proper, including being nominated by a president who stole the election into a stolen seat.

[dchill]

19. In a better world, that would be a big step...

...toward a better world.

[sharedvalues]

21. Yup. In practice in this world here's what we can do :)

- talk about impeaching the Trump judges- get the idea out into the zeitgeist

And when we take the White House in 2020:
- expand each court by two seats for every Trump judge, to nullify their votes. This is totally possible: can be done with simple majorities in Congress and with the president in D hands.

[dchill]

22. Sounds like a plan.

[bluecollar2]

32. +100...n/t

[Guy Whitey Corngood]

23. So it's a comedy? That's nice.... nt

[sharedvalues]

25. +1

Lol

[BlueStater]

24. By a man who only has a SC seat because a corrupt party stole a vacancy from a sitting president.

Screw off, Neil.

27. That's rich.

Governing by Owning the Libs - When a president’s entire motivation is to antagonize the people who didn’t vote for him.

Here's a DU thread on the Slate article, https://www.democraticunderground.com/100212432960 but this is what really stood out to me, cuz this is exactly what the GOP & republicans believe.

Levitz was responding to the president’s expressions of contempt for Puerto Rico, as another hurricane closed in on the island, and to a Trump-Pence fundraising email declaring, of the Democrats, “this is our country, not theirs.”

There is an undercurrent of "Only we are true Americans" throughout the entire republican party.

[applegrove]

28. I posted an article about calls to civility by the right. It was an old South strategy

to shut up liberals:

29. says the guy who STOLE someone else's seat

GO FUCK YOURSELF, GORSUCH

[kentuck]

30. I'm pretty sure he was a pawn in its decline?

He permitted himself to be nominated as Supreme Court Justice, knowing that Merrick Garland had been on hold by Mitch McConnell for a year. Mr Gorsuch knew that. Yet, he permitted it to continue and to allow his name put forth. Did he have to do it? Would almost everyone else have done it? After all, Supreme Court Justice.

31. This grown ass Detroit Girl has some words to share with him about his life choices

Damn few polite
