"You must stand up for what is fair and right:  Merrick Garland"

If Sessions gets approved as Attorney General, we only have the supreme court standing up for our rights under the constitution.

The republicans in the senate abrogated their constitutional duty when they refused to consider president obama's nomination of Merrick Garland to the supreme court.  With almost a year left in obama's term, they said that they wanted to wait until "the people had spoken." well, the people did speak: by almost 3 million votes they spoke for hillary clinton to choose our next supreme court justice. Careful academic analysis puts Gorsuch (Trump's SC nominee) to the RIGHT of scalia!  we expect you to fillibuster any nominee not named merick garland (or of equivalent moderateness and competence to him).

You must stand up for what is fair and right:  Merrick Garland will not be replaced by someone who will not protect the rights of workers, the environment, women's health et al.

Thank you.

We are gentle people, but we are people in motion...with a new explanation. Wear those flowers in your hair!

If you're going to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you're going to San Francisco
You're gonna meet some gentle people there

For those who come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
In the streets of San Francisco
Gentle people with flowers in their hair

All across the nation
Such a strange vibration
People in motion
There's a whole generation
With a new explanation
People in motion
People in motion

For those who come to San Francisco
Be sure to wear some flowers in your hair
If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there

If you come to San Francisco
Summertime will be a love-in there
