Prior to 11/1/19: if you were on my ignore list, I was sticking to ignoring you thanks to great advise.
From 11/1/19 on: I will no longer be responding to comments back to people on my ignore list.
_____
Think long and hard about why you respond to nonsense. Please!

I would hope everyone would agree that counties with hundreds of thousands of people should have more than a single polling location.
Expanding the court is different than nominating an SC judge. It’s like losing in a football game because the other team played dirty so during the game, you change the rules to add additional time to the game. What the Republicans did was dirty. Similarly, the democrats have acted dirty in their treatment of Trump and his SC noms. I expect both sides to act dirty within the game. I don’t expect either side to change the game. Stacking the courts is too far. If it happens, so be it. You just can’t complain when the pendulum swings back.

In the 2004, NFC championship game, a panthers player went offsides and had a free hit at eagles QB Donavon McNabb. The player hit mcnabb injuring him for the rest of the game. The Panthers went to the SB because of a cheap hit. The player didn’t have to hit mcnabb but as Eagles fans, we had to live with it. If during that game, the Eagles passed a rule that stated FGs are worth 20 points instead of 3, would that be too far?
I could literally give dozens of these types of examples. One is a “cheap hit.” Denying Obama his right to name a SC nominee was a cheap hit. Stacking the court is changing the game to fit your needs. Personally, I don’t care because the SC doesn’t matter to me. But remember, these things tend to run in cycles and eventually, the Republicans, will have the senate, congress and president. Will you be ok when they act as fascists too?
