Check Out the Democrats Who Supported Gorsuch in 2006
President Trump’s nominee Judge Neil Gorsuch is set to succeed Justice Scalia on the Supreme Court and liberals are losing it.
But jump back to 2006 and there were a slew of democrats who approved of Gorsuch when George W. Bush submitted his name for the Senate’s consideration.

Here’s a list of Democrats who supported Gorsuch’s confirmation
Former President Barack Obama
Former Vice President Joe Biden
Former Sen. Harry Reid
Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
Senate Minority Whip Dick Durbin
Sen. Dianne Feinstein, ranking member of the Senate Committee on the Judiciary
Sen. Maria Cantwell
Sen. Tom Carper
Sen. Patrick Leahy
Sen. Robert Menendez
Sen. Patty Murray
Sen. Bill Nelson
Sen. Jack Reed
Sen. Debbie Stabenow
Sen. Ron Wyden
In a stunning about face, at least one person on this list, Sen. Wyden of Oregon, announced he would oppose the nomination, and asserted Gorsuch “harkens back to the days when politicians restricted a people’s rights on a whim.”
No senator who believes individual rights are reserved to the people, not the government, can support Gorsuch’s nomination.

A handful of Democratic senators indicated they would attempt to stage a filibuster.
“This is a stolen seat. This is the first time a Senate majority has stolen a seat,” Merkley said. “We will use every lever in our power to stop this.”
“A very large number of my colleagues will be opposed,” he added.
Gorsuch was not considered a controversial nominee when elevated to the 3rd Circuit. He was confirmed to the 10th Circuit on a voice vote with the support of many of the same Democrats who now pledge to stop him.

These Dems that approve of Gorsuch 2006 but are being hypocrites. No matter what the Dems in congress are refusing, disrespecting and denying anything that has to do with Trump. They will never be happy because Trump is president not Hillary Clinton. They don’t want America great and safe, they want to control Americans and run America down.They are self-serving obstructionist, they don’t care what the American citizens want or need, they’re about special interest and and self-govern. Power and Control this country and it’s people.
