Why so rude? I was just asking you a question. While not a judge, Hagel was the Secretary of Defence and according to the US Department of Deense at
Chuck Hagel > U.S. DEPARTMENT OF DEFENSE > Biography View was still a really important, high profile job that Obama could have picked a democrat for, but chose a republican for anyway.
What makes you so angry?

Very true. See? We do agree on stuff.

They are? It doesn't seem like any of them are mad.

It is? Isn't work for infrastructure like repairs of roads and bridges still being held up in congress? And yet people still blame Obama for this? (Don't get mad at me, I'm just asking a question).

Why not? It's Obamas duty to do it, and its in the constitution. McDonnell wants to block Obama from doing it the way he tries to block him on everything else, and republicans are mostly in the way as your post here suggests. Why are you against that, but "Ok" with Obama being blocked by nominating a new judge? (Don't get mad, just asking again).
Peace.
