Hahahahaha!! Thanks for that!!

[Hoodlum91]

Who is this guy?

[altura]

I'm glad you and Delphi have each other.

It's so sweet.

[hoosiermama]

Was he put up to this by Jesse J......Katrina.....Katrina.

[Sea2ShiningSea]

Congressman John Lewis, D, Georgia

[TomGuy]

Surely, Rep John Lewis's comments are not serious.

Because Roberts was 10 years old when the Civil Rights acts were passed, that disqualifies him. lol


Unbelievable.

I guess no one under age 60 can be a SC J, if Lewis sets the standard. Then in another decade, 70 as minimum. Then in two decades, 80.

Where do these people come from? I'm ready to rip my hair out because of these people. Sounds like Jesse, Al, and NOW.

[Hoodlum91]

Thanks...what a fruitcake.

Brown has got writings/speeches that would make each and everyone of the dembos go absolutely ballistic especially what she thinks of the new deal. I for one would love to see her on the supreme court. Don't think it'll happen, unfortunately.

What'd be perfect if the dembos would filibuster Robert's...nuke option is implemented...then next nominee would slide through....which IMHO, would be Janice Brown.

Ginsberg looks like an alien from outer space and Clinton looks like the slug that he is in that picture.

One of the agenda items (something about Iran/Contra?)apparently distressed Turbin...

It was about a case involving Bob Jones University in which John Roberts was barred from being involved within two years of serving as a clerk to Justice Rehnquist.

It did indeed amount to nothing, much like Mr. and Mrs. Durbin's boy

"Must have put the CSPIN call screeners in a tizzy!!!"

Mind if I borrow steal that term for C-spam? 'C-Spin' works much better!

[maryz]

U.S. Commission on Civil Rights woman (Jennifer Braceras) is good -- unequivocal support for Roberts and answering the objections (which she considers specious).

[Eagle of Liberty]

Just made it. How is he doing today? Any firworks?

LOL! Love that comic.

[altura]

Well, the lab, Bubba, has psychiatrists.

[CatOwner]

"...nuke option is implemented..."

Keep dreaming! Our side in the Senate does not have the spine/cahones to pull that off. Sad but true.

[ChadGore]

Re: my #831 . . is that person you where looking for ?

[msnimje]

She's utterly disgusting

And don't forget, Darth Bader-Ginsberg's view are the same as those of the ACLU.

[shield]

If they filibustered Roberts, of all people...LOL...you bet they would in a heartbeat!!!

[rwa265]

How old was Chelsea at that time?
