(16,887 posts)4. It is sad. It is partisan. Its David Gergen.
Its all fact and it is what it is.
Frankly, I am glad to see the Democrats and Protesters fighting hard and pointing out the issues and partisanship. And frankly the truth about the (Anti)Republic Party

(28,136 posts)6. To me using the term "partisan" minimizes this
To me it's a fight for transparency.
It's a fight to get to the truth about this nominee in the public sphere.
It's a fight against those who favor secrecy.
Much bigger than partisanism.

(16,887 posts)7. Indeed it is Shred....which is why its important to focus on the fight and not worry about the term
"partisan"
Important to see the forest for the trees....

It's sad that it's come to this - that a partisan Supreme Court nominee is being touted by partisan Senators as someone who should be confirmed.

is when Rethugs do it.
