    Maybe a few. I think he did a lot for AIDS, and I don't think he was a bad dude, just surrounded by bad people.

    I'm pretty sure 1 of those 2 are either Granny Clampett or Lou Holtz and the other is the worst excuse for both a man and a senator we have ever seen.

    The one on top is Roger Ebert. He was a movie reviewer for the Chicago Sun Times and had a TV show with Gene Siskel, another movie critic. They made famous the "Thumbs Up, Thumbs Down" rating. Both are dead. Siskel at 53 and Ebert at 70, both from cancer-related issues.

    You'd probably get more out of Siskel and Ebert today than you would Mitch McConnell.

    Obama's masterful move of putting up a moderate judge has definitely put the GOP in a quandary. Three republican senators have already broken ranks and said that the nominee should be put up for a vote.

    I have to agree. He's moderate and 63 years old. You could not have asked for anything better coming from a Democrat President.

    Heaven forbid Hillary wins the Presidency, she would put up a really liberal judge, nothing close to Merrick Garland.
