This is great news. Republicans are blocking all of Obama's nominations so it will take a while to even replace this guy (there are currently 109 vacancies in federal courts). The more overloaded and clogged up the courts are the harder it is for trolls to do real damage, especially now that they've lost their go-to guy.



Um tea-party republicans shutting down the federal courts isn't really something to be happy about.
