People Democrats should blame for the Federal Courts?

1. Harry Reid. He was arrogant and stupid, and didn& #39;t realize that when you change the rule, the other team always gets an at-bat.

Here is Mitch telling him I told ya so...in 2013.

2. Barack Obama. He helped ignite the worsening blockade of justices under Bush, and thus, GOP had no patience for his hypocrisy as President. He tried to filibuster Alito, failed, killed a number of other judges.

Then, he compounded matters. How?

Obama was the slowest President to nominate judges in modern history.

"Obama is set to end his term with dozens fewer lower-court appointments than both Clinton and Bush achieved in their first four years..."

And this was with a DEM SENATE MAJORITY! https://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/18/us/politics/obama-lags-on-filling-seats-in-the-judiciary.html">https://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/1...

"Mr. Obama’s record stems in part from a decision at the start of his presidency to make judicial nominations a lower political priority, according to documents and interviews with more than a dozen current and former administration officials..."

"But a good portion of Obama’s judicial record stems from a deliberate strategy. While Bush quickly nominated a slate of appeals court judges early in his first year, Obama moved more slowly and sought relatively moderate jurists who he hoped would not provoke culture wars..."

Liberals are constantly angry at conservatives, but the simple truth is that Obama bears a large portion of the situation we are in today.
