alioto????
Bit heavy on the Irish Coffee's for breakfast?
Orca just call Alito Al Lee Oh Tow!
In his mind, the two phrases are synonymous. I've been using the term "Constitutional" (or even more specific phrases) to describe the territory between FISA and whatever a president has to do to offend the constitution.
Alli-oto....LOL
Somebody have throw up grafic please for Kennedy.Sell your soul Kennedy.
Good grief! Kennedy's wasting no time, is he?
"Judge Ali-oto"???????...he can't even SPEAK properly. Eegads..someone get that man to STFU.
Packing the Court (Dem. FDR did) is increasing the number of Justices on the Court. No such thing going on here.
Bush is merely replacing a retiring Justice.
They just make stuff up ... unemployment? That is contrary to facts. What is comes down to is the dems are LIARS and knowing these hearings are being aired on cable news channels (and tonight's evening news on the networks) are using this to blab what they don't like about President Bush.
How disrespectful of the judicial branch of government...
This fat glob has NEVER told the truth. Now he's on his favorite subject....kill babies!
OMG ... Kennedy - and not a cheer leader for imperialism presidency
This coming from a man who is a cheerleader for the terrorists
Huh?? .. Judge Allyoto ??... WTH ???
Democrats shouldn’t waste their time filibustering Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito. There are bigger fights coming down the pike.
Making Alito's kids listen to Kennedy bloviate about nonsense should be considered torture.
Oh! I didn't hear that, I don't have CSpan on. Thanks for clarifying.
Leahy is such a dork.
Caught that too huh?
Did you hear Arlen's comments? Did he talk about Roe again..?
yeah he does...
It's my cold:)I will be back in an hour.
