No Right Wing Whining About Obama’s Nomination of Lesbian?
The remarkable news about the nomination of Jenny Durkan to the US Attorney position in Western Washington is not that she is an out lesbian with a family and kids, but that the extremists on the right wing don’t have much to say about it. Perhaps they haven’t noticed yet?

1. they clearly haven't been notified (the talking heads)
they're all sitting waiting on the announcement of a SCJOTUS who is not a right-wing Republican in every way to blow their powder upon!

2. Delayed reaction, then?
Not a premature one as per usual?

3. They've already promised that they'll whine and bitch about whoever
it is anyway, so it may be moot whether she's a lesbian or not. The right wing are a miserable group of people who aren't satisfied until absolutely EVERYone is as miserable as they are.

5. They're waiting until the nomination. By 2012 the Senate will have 96 members and SCOTUS 7
the Repukes will contest every Senate election they lose next year, and won't approve any SCOTUS nominees. And Hapless Harry will do nothing
