Now says Roberts records on AA were in the Regan library and have become misplaced :)

Ted, have you checked with Sandy the Burgular?

Kennedy: EOC set up at suggestion of Dirksen. Didn't expect many complaints but have received many from the beginning.

They can stall, but if they start dragging it out much longer it's going to become obvious even to the maroons who support them. People aren't paying attention now anyway, they are focused on Hurricane Katrina and the upcoming TV season.

I don't think the Dems are willing to risk the criticism and backlash that will happen if they delay for too long. The only thing they'd have in their favor is an ineffective Republican leadership willing to exploit their drag-assing.

Roberts points out in memo, words saying EEOC was "unamerican" were not his words.

Kennedy playing CYA, pretending Roberts is wrong.

Roberts setting Kennedy straight on actual words in an EEOC memo. Telling Kennedy he has to read "the prior sentence". Kennedy blubbers he wants to "go on" as his time is getting short...

Dam. If you read the entire memo...
He even told him it was in that same paragraph.
Roberts smacked him down.

Ted Kennedy is having a little bit of Mental Jujitsu being performed upon him. He's getting his ass kicked by taking the memo out of context.

Now, how can Roberts REMEMBER all this stuff???? Man, a memo from 20+ years ago??? He is awesome.

"Kennedy wants to know what in Roberts' background gives people hope he will stand up for the little people? He must have missed the very same question asked yesterday."

You know, after years and years and years, I am getting REALLY SICK of liberal whining about "oppressed" minorities, women, disabled folk, transgenders, snails... etc -- glad I'm not up for the Supreme Court, I simply cannot imagine keeping my mouth shut in the face of Kennedy's blathering on and on and on about the same old Liberal BS.

... Ugh, now he's lecturing Roberts about having a heart. Yeah, tell that to the woman you killed, you hypocritical gasbag...
