My guess is that they never existed--just like boy Clinton was never part of any "disobedience".
Didn't he say something about seeing churches burned when he was a boy and that turned out to be a lie, too? (I'm shocked!)
Do you listen at Murphy's?
Great beginning to this program.
Since he's a Klingon can Hillary be the man in the red shirt?
Yummy....is that sugar on the rim?? YaY...I love them that way!!
Thank you!
Thanks for the ping, Ali!
I'm tuned in online. The folks (owner) at Murphy's are union folks. CNN is the only station. I only go there to make fun of them. Plus it's close to the office.
;-)
What is the case that's contra to the ruling by the 9th Circuit? It's called Pierce v. Sisters or something that found that sex ed couldn't be taught it was the parents perview.
Heck with the Shirley Temple, I'll have a Mojito!! ;>)
The White House, as you know, is interested in having the matter concluded by the end of the year. I do not know that that is realistic. I do not know that that is unrealistic.What I do know is that we're going to do it right, and we're not necessarily going to do it fast.
If it can be done within the time frame by the end of the year and done properly with an opportunity to review Judge Alito's record and have the kind of hearings that are necessary for this kind of a very, very key position -- you hear it said often, but frankly not too often, that short of a declaration of war, the most important function of the United States Senate is the confirmation of U.S. Supreme court justice for lifetime terms.
They make the decision on the cutting edges of all of the big questions in our society.
As things have evolved, the Congress punts to the court, the executive branch punts to the court. And they have lifetime tenure and independence, and they have come somehow in our society to take on those cutting edge questions. So it is very, very important.
Transcript: Sen. Specter Discusses Alito Nomination | Oct 31, 2005
WASHINGTON (CNN) -- Confirmation hearings are to begin in January for Samuel Alito, President Bush's nominee for the Supreme Court seat now held by Sandra Day O'Connor, leaders of the Senate Judiciary Committee said Thursday.When announcing Alito's nomination on Monday, President Bush called for a vote by the end of the year. The judiciary committee's chairman, Sen. Arlen Specter, R-Pennsylvania, and ranking member, Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vermont, announced Thursday that the hearings would begin on January 9. ...
McCain said he is "very favorably disposed" toward Alito, but "it's my obligation to go along with the Gang of 14 and have periodic meetings and discussions."
Republican Sens. Mike DeWine of Ohio, Lindsey Graham of South Carolina, and Olympia Snowe of Maine have said they don't see Alito triggering the "extraordinary circumstances" standard the group had set that could initiate a filibuster.
LOL!
I am not complaining, I was just curious...because I, myself, was in and out.
