In attempt to simply obstruct President Obama again, the GOP in the senate claims they are doing the right thing by refusing to even consider allowing a vote on or even a meeting with his nominee for the Supreme Court.
Ignoring that the president was elected twice to do the job of president, they claim they need to wait until after the next election because the nominee should comply with the will of the people.
Apparently people elected Obama twice without expressing their will.
But that ruse loses its supposed validity when Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson recently called for a PERMANENT blockade of any nominee by President Obama or his successor if that person is a Democrat.
So if the will of the people is to have a Democrat as president, it should be ignored.
For those who are not familiar with Senator Ron Johnson:
He condemned “The Lego Movie” because the bad guy is a heartless businessman intent on destroying the world for profit.
“That’s done for a reason. They’re starting that propaganda, and it’s insidious.”
He actually took the hit on the evil businessman character personally because in 2010 when he faced off against Russ Feingold, he felt he was compelled to because
“I was sitting home, watching Fox News, and Dick Morris came on and said… ‘If you’re a rich guy from Wisconsin, step up to the plate. And I kinda looked at [my wife] Jane and go, ‘Is he like talking to me?’”
While claiming there should be no negative feelings toward him as a rich guy because he is a self made man, he actually made his money as an executive at a plastics company owned by his father-in-law, a company that then paid for what was referred to in the press as a self-financed campaign in 2010.
So, like Trump who thinks a million dollar gift from his father means he is a self-made man just like the Schlepp who starts his business with a small bank loan and a lot of hope, Johnson made himself by marrying the right woman.
He was so eager to demonstrate his opposition to the Affordable Care Act that he filed a lawsuit against “Obamacare” in order to make coverage more expensive for people who work on Capitol Hill. H claimed not doing that was a presidential “abuse of executive authority.”

“I believe I have an obligation to try and reestablish the checks and balances that our founders put in the Constitution to limit the size and power of our government,” Johnson said about his filing.
He was upset that members of Congress and their staffs have to sign up for coverage through an exchange. The thing is this provision is in the Affordable Car Act because Republicans had wanted it in the law.
The case was thrown out.
When the senate held a hearing before the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on the Iran nuclear deal, Johnson, the chairman of the Senate Homeland Security Committee, lectured Energy Secretary Ernest Moniz, an M.I.T. physicist, on “electro-magnetic pulse weapons.”
When Moniz said he had no idea what Johnson was talking about Johnson told him h would forward some information to him.
To add to his objection based on irrelevant fiction, a political action committee supporting Johnson ran a television ad featuring an image of President Obama shaking hands with Iranian President Hassan Rouhani which was obviously fake as the two had never met.
When asked if he objected to this photo that was obviously photoshopped, Johnson informed the interviewer that he had no idea what photoshop was.
For reference, he is five years younger than I am, and I know what photoshop is.
In the build up to the it-never-happened Ebola outbreak, Johnson said he saw the threat of ISIS militants intentionally infecting themselves with the Ebola virus and then traveling to America as a “real and present danger.”
“Well, it’s certainly something I’ve been thinking about ever since this Ebola outbreak started. You really don’t even want to think about. You really don’t even want to talk about, but we should do everything possible to defend ourselves against that possibility because I think that is a real and present danger.”
FBI Director James Comey had to point out, that this was not happening.
Johnson also believes that affordable contraception is easily distributed over the Internet, “sunspot activity” is responsible for global warming, the Great Recession ended before President Obama took office, and sees public investment in alternative energy as roughly the same thing as “the Soviet Union.”
And now he has announced that the senate should wait for the people to express their will about a Supreme Court nominee, but if the GOP does not agree with their expression, they should simply ignore it.
