(Video) McCain condemns Durbin for his "back of the bus" insult to GOP senators

Sen. John McCain (R-AZ) today on the Senate floor ripped Sen. Dick Durbin (D-IL) for not--at least yet--scheduling a vote to confirm Loretta Lynch as the next US attorney general. Durbin said yesterday of the process "the first African-American woman nominated to be attorney general, is asked to sit in the back of the bus when it comes to the Senate calendar."

Durbin, as one a Marathon Pundit commenter recalled, voted against the nomination of Condaleeza Rice as the first African-American woman to be US secretary of state.

What's the hold up?

It took six years for the Senate to pass the Keystone XL bill. That's how long Harry Reid dragged his feet.

What's the rush. Lynch is hard-left radical nominated to replace another one.

She is not on "the back of the bus."

Durban of course compared our soldiers to Pol Pot.

Didn't Lynch call voter ID laws racist?
