I don't know why they even bother to show up and open their pie holes anymore.
It's all hot air and bluster when everybody with a pulse knows the outcome.
Loretta Lynch, after being kept waiting in the wings by the Senate for 5 1/2 months, was confirmed Thursday as the first African American woman to serve as attorney general.
Lynch was approved, 56-43, one of the narrowest margins in history for an attorney general nominee.

Just what this f-ing country needs.

Majority Leader Mitch McConnell of Kentucky, Should be stripped of his leadership position.
Kelly Ayotte of New Hampshire, Rob Portman of Ohio, Ron Johnson of Wisconsin and Thad Cochran of Mississippi. All need to be removed from office on their next election.Traitors all.
The other Republicans were Orrin Hatch of Utah, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina. These two are a surprise. Makes me wonder what they want.
Jeff Flake of Arizona, Mark S. Kirk of Illinois and Susan Collins of Maine. No surprises there. All three are nothing but RINO's.
Kirk is a gun hating son of a bitch that takes his orders from the Democrat machine in Chicago. That R after his name is supposed to be cover.
Collins is just as bad as Kirk, another gun hater with a fake R after her name.
At least both of my Senators showed that they have enough sense to know a communist bitch when they see one.
As a foreigner (Brit) I always watched/watch US movies and TV series with a touch of bemusement. Why? Because every single one has 'the head of Dept.', OIC, Senior manager, Senator, Congressman (damn is that PC? Or is it Congressperson now?)(and all presented as the best and most capable, and the only really caring, honest and hard-working official) as ….. a black person, and usually a black woman at that. The bemusement? Well, I wondered how come (what is it?) 13% of the population, the one with the worst crime/drug/alcohol/education stats, the most single mothers, etc., etc. could possibly allegedly produce all these 'superior' types to lead the rest of the country? (Oh and every gay man is a stylish dresser, dances really well, is a caring and sensitive soul and just all-round better than everyone else apparently too).
I thought, like TV over here (population <2% LGTBQWERTY, <2% black yet you'd think from watching TV here that they're the majority), that the PC brigade was simply presenting fiction/wishful thinking as fact. Where in the past the 'token' black person (obligatory even when inappropriate like historical areas where there were no black people) was always a late add-on as a minor bit-part 'menial', now I assumed they'd just swapped it for the token senior manager but …. it's the truth there isn't it? Every senior position is now given (mandatory, no debate or you're a racist, misogynistic patriarchal cis-something) to a black/minority woman irrelevant of qualifications, experience, ability or even basic honesty (with the caveat that they have to be of the 'right' political leaning of course). God help you (and us since we seem to be following you down that particular drain).
You do know that as a white hetro male you may as well now just report to the re-education camp straight away. You'll be sent there sooner or later whatever you do.
(Hi NSA/GCHQ, just for the record I'm neither racist, misogynist or homophobe having many black, gay and lesbian friends and colleagues which is how come I know they all aren't the best, don't all dress well and … I can dance better than all of them – I do a really mean John Travoltaesque routine, I even have the medallion and chest wig – please don't shoot the dog on the way in and I take an XXL in orange jump-suit).
Why do these posts have to judged on a 'first'. It doesn't change anything. First black / hispanic / female / fill in the blank.
I don't care about the skin color, religion, or political leaning - choose the best qualified PERSON and let it go.
I have a hard time believing that Lynch is the best based on what I said - is this her 1st time as a canidate ? How much job experience does she have at a job like this - what is her track record ? Were the appointments politically motivated or what it based on good work ?
skin color, religion, or political leaning make a hell of a difference
To ignore that is ignoring the obvious. To hell with being PC.
