Up or Down Vote

May I answer the question about where it says “An Up-or-Down” Vote in the Constitution for the esteemed Congressman, (Robert Byrd), from the wrong-wrong side of the Isle?

Article II of the Constitution provides that the President "shall nominate, and by and with the Advice and Consent of the Senate" Dot-Dot-Dot.

It doesn’t say “Advise and Consent of the Committee” or more specifically, the Judicial Committee!

In order to have the Senate do the Advising, the nominee must make it to the Senate floor!

Therefore Mr Byrd, you have just been Shot down in Flames!
