Rankin also asked about Moran's view of the President's Supreme Court nomination.
"I think we have the responsibility to have a hearing, to have the conversation and to make a determination on the merit," Moran said. "I can't imagine this president is going to nominate someone I find acceptable. I have a restricted view of what judges are supposed to do."
He explained the job of Supreme Court justices are to only interpret the consititution and the law as passed by Congress, not make the law.
"I think I have the responsibility to consider a nominee presented by a president and make a determination whether he or she is qualified," he said. "I'm willing to participate in the process. I don't think that will happen. The decision has been made."

Kansas Republicans need to take note of what our Senators do, not just what they say, during their once every 6 years re-election campaigns. As we see from our experience with RINO Senator Pat Roberts, once he was re-elected in '14, he betrayed Kansas by both voting to allow GOP Congress to rubber stamp their predecessors' Democratic Budget and shirk their duties to craft a conservative budget, that could have cut all funding for Planned Parenthood's baby parts auction business and Obamacare.
Tricky Senator Moran, with his looming 2016 re-election campaign in the offing, voted to allow that vote by voting yes on cloture (bring to a full vote of the Senate) for Democrats and his fellow RINOs to shirk their Constitutionally mandated duty to craft a 2016 budget. But since it is an Election year for Senator Moran, this strategy allowed Sen. Moran the opportunity to then go on the record as opposing the "No New Budget Just Renew the Democratic Budget Act" aka HR719 Continuing Appropriations Bill 2016.
Kansas do NOT be fooled by another RINO Senator positioning himself to betray your trust for yet another 6 years. We need to find an honest conservative replacement for Senator Moran before the June 1st deadline.
