About impeaching Justice Beer Bong Weenie Waver

[Stinky The Clown]

We have time. Maybe even best to wait until we get the Senate back. WE impeach him in the House and then WE convict him in the Senate. There is no time limit, no rush since he is there for a looooong time. I prefer we want until we can go all the way to his removal. And allow a Democratic president to replace his ass.

1. DURec for thread title alone

!!

[CousinIT]

2. Yep. That got a rec from me too! Great and most appropriate title! n/t

[ismnotwasm]

5. Me three!

[50 Shades Of Blue]

8. Me four!

[11 Bravo]

44. Happy to be #5!

[Newest Reality]

3. Great Title.

I had to pause, but the name immediately evoked the referential image.

Duzy!

[sharedvalues]

4. OR we just add two new justices to nullify his vote

And we do have time.
In 2021, Pres Liz Warren can expand the Supreme Court by two justices, needing only 51 votes in the Senate.

[vlyons]

10. No, he needs to be impeached

His confirmation was a complete sham. He lied to the Senate. Plus the DOJ "investigation" was corrupted. He needs to be made an example.

Justice Weenie-Waver -- we gotta make that stick.

[Scarsdale]

12. Someone was desperate

to get him on the Supreme Court. He got his mortgage (over $1 million) paid, credit card debt over $200,000 other debts were paid, too. Why him? Surely there were plenty of DECENT people who could have qualified for the position, without all that uproar? Now he will live off taxpayers for the rest of his life. The quality of the candidates for the SC has been tarnished forever after this fiasco.

[vlyons]

13. SCOTUS was tarnished with Clarence Thomas, who also lied

and was a sex predator. Kavanaugh "auditioned" for the job by writing articles in legal journals that basically supported the the thesis the the POTUS is above the law.

[Scarsdale]

24. Yes, it was.

The gop sends their worst applicants for the jobs. We have never had a president as bad as tRump, either. Apparently, Thomas has done next to nothing, or even spoken much since he got the job. Just collect a paycheck for life.

6. LOL! That's a great title!

Bear bong weeny waver!!

I had no trouble figuring out who that was.

The standard for Supreme Justices has sure taken a nose dive!

[leftieNanner]

7. Ah, Stinky

But you do have a way with words!

And I agree with your op. We can't let this drop off the radar, but we do have pressing issues on our plate now. Let's take our time and do this right.

[EveHammond13]

9. see Time to Fight Dirty by @DavidMFaris. @FixtheCourt #UnpackTheCourt

[bucolic_frolic]

11. Yes, Moscow Mitch stole the seat and Trumputin stole the election

so we are out 2 SP Justices. Not fair by any measure.

[gademocrat7]

14. Spot on, Stinky!

[KT2000]

15. Your title

this is why I love DU!

[3catwoman3]

16. Not there is anything even remotely musing...

...about Kavanaugh being on the court, but your name for him is hysterical.

[fierywoman]

17. You forgot "Boofer" (;-)

[magicarpet]

18. I'll boof to that....

Oh wait,... I don't like alcohol enemas,.. I'll pass on that.



Plenty of time once we gain control and impeach Kav in the Senate.

Bye bye you Fascist prick.

[llmart]

19. Your thread title gave me the best laugh of the day!

Now it's off to sleep with a grin on my face.

Sometimes it's the little things.

[TwilightZone]

20. Problem is, we need 67 votes.

It's the same process as removing the president. While I wholeheartedly agree that he needs to go, I don't see the votes, even if we make big gains in the Senate in 2020.

[AdamGG]

22. There's no way they'd get 67 votes and it would diminish from the effort to impeach Dump

And, the fact that he waved his dick around in college isn't as impeachable as the partisan stuff he did hacking Patrick Leahy's documents.

[Tiggeroshii]

36. Theres a way. Just unlikely.

We would need a net gain of 20. There are 23 GOP held seats up. Winning 20 of those would give us 67.

[AdamGG]

48. Look at the 2020 Senate map

There's 4 seats we can maybe pick up (AZ, CO, IA, ME), but that's the max. Wyoming, Idaho, Oklahoma aren't going Democratic any time soon.

[Tiggeroshii]

50. seems unfeasible right now, for sure.

But if we did as well with this map in 2020 as we did in 2008, we would already be 4 away from 67. Long shot? Yes. Physically impossible? No.

[Laura PourMeADrink]

21. Focus on the source of the evil first

[Grasswire2]

23. I saw a compilation video of his crying yesterday but I can't find it again.

It was hilarious.

[NCLefty]

25. But he gets to make rulings while we're sitting back chilling...

No offense, but the unlikely possibility we will get to him... later... isn't very comforting.

We're already dealing with that with Trump. "History will judge him harshly." Zzz

[Tiggeroshii]

26. We would need a net gain of 19 democratic seats to convict.

I dont think this is impossible, but certainly will be quite difficult.

[Polybius]

33. It's impossible to net 19 in 2020

Unless you mean by 2022 or 2024.

[Tiggeroshii]

35. There are 22 or 23 gop held seats up in 2020 last i checked.

So technically i think it is possible, but obviously very unlikely.

[Polybius]

37. Ok, and 35 seats up total

So of those 35 we would have to go like 27-8. So yeah possible but better chance of winning a he lotto two weeks in a row. Many safe republican seats are up.

[Tiggeroshii]

38. Not quite lottery status, methinks

Depending on how popular trump is at that point, I put our chances at between 1 and 500 and 1 and 1000.

Also this is the same map we won 8 seats in 2008. McCain wasnt close to unpopular as trump could be come election day.

[Polybius]

62. Well, we'd have to go 32-3 to get to 67 Dems

There are 23 Republicans defending seats. We need to win 20 of those 23, and then win all of our own seats that we're defending. Yikes.

[Tiggeroshii]

63. Yes

But I'm dreaming here: If we won all the seats that we won in 2008 +Arizona and Maine that look likely already (+11) plus all of the well funded races we will likely have in Texas, Georgia(2), Kentucky, Tennessee, Nebraska, Sourth Carolina, well.. even in that unlikely scenario we get only 18: Still 2 short. Which would make it so we would only need to flip 2 republicans for impeachment. Meh. I'll keep dreaming!! Forget about a blue wave.. this would be like a blue asteroid.

[Tiggeroshii]

39. Same map in 2008 we won 16 out of the 35 seats up.

Last edited Mon Sep 16, 2019, 03:42 PM - Edit history (1)

If we do just as well, we will win 63 seats. If we do just a little better, getting just 4 more than 2008, we win 67.

[Polybius]

61. Your math is way off

The 2008 Senate election that you mentioned only had a net gain of 8 seats (which is still huge) for the Democrats. Winning 16 of 35 is irrelevant, as there are a different number of Republicans and Democrats every cycle.

We need a net gain of 20 seats in 2020 to get to 67. Winning 20 out of 35 isn't even close to being the same. We would have to go 32-3 to get to 67 Dems. Let that sink in for a moment. If we were to go 35-0, we would net gain 23, since there are 23 Republicans defending seats out of the 35 that are up. Never in the history of the country has a Party netted 20 seats.

Absolute best we can hope for is net gain of 8 again, which is good for 55 seats.

[Tiggeroshii]

64. I realize that now.

Again I"m dreaming. See my other reply to your post.

[we can do it]

27. Yes exactly

[Cha]

29. Revenge best served

ice cold.

Beware "weenie waver" the Dems are coming for you.

[jimmyzvoice]

30. Along with other reasons..

this is why we MUST flip as many Republican seats as we can to make the Senate as blue as it can be!!!

[Always Randy]

31. don't rule out Impeaching Clarence Thomas---Ginny could not stand the gossip

she has become the social darling of the right-wing--a reopening of the original hearing ----prompted by a few Senators------like Kamela Harris---could lead the way a press coverage that would embarrass the Thomas' ----as they should be-----and under the right amount of that pressure --he would step down ----under the guise of retirement -----would DU members support an appointment of Anita Hill to SCOTUS ------no need to bandy it about ----just the meme is enough to get Ginny fired up---I like to call her Gin&Tonic Ginny because of her playing the PHONE RANGER in a late-night call to Anita Hill-----which was recorded on the campus security system
Her lobbying activities have occasionally been raised as a potential source of conflict of interest for her husband. Luring her in to the fan fare should be easy and the new members of Congress could play a key role-----we can turn back the clock------

[CaptainTruth]

32. The title of your OP made me literally LOL

And I agree, impeach when we're in control & can remove him.

[bucolic_frolic]

34. A Moniker for the Ages

Justice Beer Bong Weenie Waver

Seriously, this is the good stuff!

[samplegirl]

40. First it must be

proven true before anything can be done.

[maxsolomon]

41. 2/3 of the Senate.

Highly unlikely.

[shraby]

42. You have a knack for calling a spade a spade.

[TruckFump]

43. AMEN!!!! EOM

[3Hotdogs]

45. Looks like the new, weeney wavin' sex charge balloon has been deflated.

One "victim" can't remember the incident. The witness for the other victim has worked for Hillary.

Lets hope the loan payoff charge continues to hold water.


Meanwhile, the primary candidates who jumped on the bandwagon to impeach B.B.W.W., are now looking like fools.

[OKNancy]

46. It's stupid to impeach as long as Trump is in office

and would name the replacement. If the Senate would even vote against him.

[Maven]

47. Stinky, you are a DU treasure.

Never change.

[TimeToGo]

49. Who paid his debt?

[smirkymonkey]

65. That is the million dollar question.

Something really stinks here. Justice Boof has a lot to answer for, not the least of which is his disgusting behavior as a high-school and college student. He has been and still is corrupt and impeachable. His finances alone are enough to go on.

[onetexan]

51. Yes, keep the pressure on

[standingtall]

52. All this talk of impeaching Kavanaugh is distracting us from impeaching Trump

nt

[Auggie]

53. K&R

[berni_mccoy]

54. You presume Trump will Win re-election.

There will be no point to impeach if he loses.

Even if we win the Senate back, they won’t be seated in time to impeach Trump if he’s on his way out.

And there is no way we are picking up 2/3 majority.

[Stinky The Clown]

56. I do?

[berni_mccoy]

57. Maybe I missed the sarcasm...

[Stinky The Clown]

58. There wasn't any sarcasm on that point. The OP was, I thought, clear.

We should wait until we have both houses and the white house and *then* we impeach and change the court. That could well be in 2020/21.

The OP had an intentionally funny title. The underlying point, however, was quite serious.

[berni_mccoy]

59. Totally my bad, for some reason

I thought you were talking about the orange one.

[Stinky The Clown]

60. No worries, my friend!

Just wanted to clarify.

Its all good!

[LiberalFighter]

55. He needs to serve time in prison too. Not just be impeached.
