@Drnaline,
I get it now .
Yes , I agree with you on that - Dems seem to writhe in righteous indignation if one of their own is accused - " How can you Republicans be so mean ? " .
Some are also indignant when one of them is called on some outrageous statement or claim , but pounce on Republicans for the same action . They claim a double standard exists on the opposition , but live by one on their side .
According to Schumer , Bush should have appointed a "middle of the road " justice , but did they when in power ?
Bush won the election and Republicans control the legislature and many states , thus they DO have the right to appoint people of similar political stamp as the majority .
Let the battle over Alito begin !
