There was never a time when one of Bush's or any other Republican presidents, or Democratic, nominee was rejected out of hand without even the courtesy of meeting with  the nominee Gerald. Never. Lyndsey Graham a couple of days ago talked about what a precedent setting situation this is. All the BS about Dems doing this and saying that mean squat when the reality is that no nominee ever was not even given meetings, hearings, votes in the Judiciary Committee and then discussion and votes on the Senate floor. Never happened before Gerald. Can't ya see where this precedent goes from here? Are you okay with the partisan political gridlock in DC? It's going to get worse if McConnell succeeds in keeping Judge Garland from even getting a hearing let alone a vote.
