 The confirmation process for the Supreme Court nominee is on pause this week as the Senate awaits the findings of an FBI investigation. Unfortunately, it looks like no matter what the investigation finds, half of the country is going to be crying foul. It feels like an impossible situation. What can we do about it? We can TALK to one another. Is anyone happy with the way this is unfolding? How can we fix the confirmation process? How do we change the system so we don't wind up in this dysfunctional place again in the future? We need to trust that our Supreme Court is unbiased. It's hard to do that when the confirmation process has become so politically charged. What can we do to make sure Supreme Court nominees have overwhelming support from both parties? How do we restore the balance in the system? What are your thoughts?

This has been a hard time. Starting with the Republicans blocking Obama from making an appointment. (Actually going farther back when there was a block from getting Federal Judges - as far as I know it was a first in Supreme Court Justices) Your comment will be posted after it is approved.
