    The Senate would never approve such a thing.

    Never underestimate the ineptitude of the US Senate.

    Senator McConnell and the rest of his GOP sell outs voted to end the filibuster. Now the Senate can vote someone like Holder in office.

    It.....could.....work!!! 😲

    But of course, there are a myriad of sell outs like Holder who will do anything Obama wants him to do, so does it really matter? The appeal to Holder is that conservatives already loath him. It would be like rubbing salt in their wounds. 😵

    It's logical to think the plan, because of timing of Holders resignation, may be Holder appointed to Supreme Court to replace Ginsberg. Because of age, she may be asked to resign by Obama to make a position for Holder.

    Even if Republicans win the Senate that will not prevent a "lame-duck" Democrat Senate from approving Holder.

    Even if Republicans win the Senate by only a seat or two and a Holder nomination is made after the new Republican members are sworn in, a confirmation vote is still likely. McCain stated when the two Justices (Kagen and Sotomayor) were up for confirmation that he felt the President deserved to get the appointees he wanted and Graham follows him like a pet poodle. Plus there are Snow and Collins who are really liberals.

    So, don't be shocked if there is in future a Justice Holder.

    Holder belongs in jail for Fast and Furious.

    I miss your point. What does the membership of Knights of Columbus have to do with Holder being a Supreme Court Justice.

    Perhaps you meant this post for another forum topic?

    He may own it but has little control, unless he favors gay marriage.

    To think that incompetent idiot could be on the Supreme court, sends a chill down my spine...
