To people spouting about Republicans being obstructionists regarding the appointment of a new Supreme Court justice: Two points. Do they not remember when the Democrats blocked two of Reagan's appointments in 1987, forcing the Supreme Court to only have eight members for over 200 days? Do they not (more recently I might add) remember when our current president as a senator voted for a filibuster to occur when George W. Bush made a Supreme Court appointment? Stop being so near-sighted, and look at the precedent.
