Regardless of whether it was Reagan or Bush 41, the fact remains that both of them had, as in the present day, a Congress controlled by Democrats who had the ultimate say on whether or not a judicial nominee was confirmed. That was before the time period when the Democrats felt that a president's nominees should be confirmed because elections have consequences.

True PS and that's why the courts are and will always be political and to think otherwise is naive.The courts have always reflected , in some degree, the popular interpretation of the law.I am for one, sick of people from the left and right ,telling me what the founders would think about issues we face today. Would we have ant rational idea how to deal with the concerns of citizens in this country 250 years from now. Arrogant, presumptuous nonsense.IMHO, of course.
