LOL! The wit of Chesterton... you've got to love it!

Alito said all he could.

He was a passive member due to the ROTC issue, never got that deeply involved, and is against any bad stuff authors of articles might have published.

Schumer belongs to an organization that excludes women.
Here's a question that Chuckie will dodge--
"Can a woman belong to your lodge?"
Female Masons he'd thwart,
But he'd help gals abort
His thinking is such a hodge-podge.

They've done themselves more harm than good. Even Dem callers to CSPAN during breaks are expressing disgust.

Chuckie-Schmuckie does a good job for the state. AARRGGHH

This is the problem Republicans simply must out grow. They HATE Fed Spending and LOVE the people who bring the Fed pork spending home in truck loads.

Schumer has a built-in global positioning device that ensures he's never more than five feet away from a camera.

I've been working on my christmas decorations for over a week now.

I've got about 10,000 lights down so far (and all 12 deer), only 20,000 to go. Then there's the indoor stuff.......

UpChuck didn't care to hear Alito's answer.

Has he from the onset or was he trying to get the best soundbites for the evening news? The man is an embarrassment to my State and is far too beholden to special interest groups.

I wish someone would ask him just what he's insinuating in his questions. Perhaps Cornyn will do that in his subtle but masterful manner.

From Scotusblog

12:42: Sen. Kennedy moves for executive session to subpoena these documents* from CAP. Specter says this takes him by suprise but Kennedy says it shouldn't because Kennedy sent a letter about this topic. Specter says he didn't receive it and refuses to rule. Kennedy wants to appeal. However, Specter says there's no decision to appeal. Specter says he'll consider it and that he's the chair and moves on.

* William Rushers personal letters and documents

Basically it was a shouting match and Spectre told K that he did not run the committee.

Both were shaking afterward

Well as a "regular" American, not accustomed to hating, I feel more hate for these men everyday.

Spector and Kennedy got into it over a letter that Kennedy's office was supposed to get over to Spectors office. It was a riot!

Kennedy said, "I KNOW you recieved it..." and Spector cut him off saying, "DON'T you tell me what I receieved and what I didn't!!"

Someone said CNN had the video on their front page.
