Good point.
Alito looks like he's waiting for a dentist to do a root canal.

Leahy appears to be abusing his platform to speak out against President Bush instead of focusing on Alito's hearing. Are you suprised ??
I'm not

Rush said that as soon as Orrin Hatch got the microphone, CNN went to a talking head. Can't let Republicans have any face time...

I have a sense that Sam may not be as deferential to the Dems as Roberts was..he might let it all hang out in a few responses.

Stopping by briefly. Praying for Alito to have endurance. I know being before a room of Senators with a higher opinion of themselves then is deserved is a tough job. I think I'll be able to be back in time for Alito's statement if it's at 1:00, we'll see. Looking forward to reading the comments about what occurs when I get back. :-)

Its obvious by now that the Democratic Senators are just playing to their MoveOn moneymen.
To: zeaal
Oh gag...here come's Kennedy. He is going to go with "equal justice under the law"...

Leaky says the President has been acting "outside of the law". WRONG. I think the president admits the surveillance is outside of FISA.
