Schumer, Dems, disgusting hypocrites when it comes to Supreme Court

Schumer, Dems, disgusting hypocrites when it comes to Supreme Court
Remember Gorsush was approved unanimously by Senate when confirmed to Federal bench. 
It was obama who said "elections have consequences"
Washington Times
"Senate Minority Leader Charles E. Schumer said Thursday that Democrats will attempt to filibuster Judge Neil Gorsuch’s nomination, saying he would tilt the Supreme Court too far away from what Democrats want to see. “After careful deliberation I have concluded that I cannot support Judge Neil Gorsuch’s nomination to the Supreme Court,” Mr. Schumer said, announcing his filibuster on the Senate floor. The speech amounted to a challenge to Republicans, who may now have to decide whether to trigger the “nuclear option” and change the chamber’s rules to curtail the power of the filibuster.

Mr. Schumer, who four years ago himself voted to trigger the nuclear option on all other nominees, told Republicans not to follow his lead. Just last year, when Democrats thought they’d win the White House and the Senate, their outgoing floor leader Sen. Harry Reid said they themselves would trigger the nuclear option to get Hillary Clinton’s nominee through.
