C-span keeps going in an out. Are they going to go for another round I heard something about Schumer but not sure if he too wants a third round, God help us.
Yep. Levin went off.
Leahy is SO SO SOOOOO full of false compassion I want to smack him...
EVEN Jeff Greenfield on CNN couldn't believe the treatment of the nominee...see NRO for quotes.
WOOhoo, I finally caught up with this thread!
A response in post 3339?
Mrs. Alito is not the nominee, she is his wife. Judge Alito is the one who has to stand the heat, not her. It's unfair to hold her to the standards of the nominee, which she is not.
Second, just purely from a political point of view, I'm glad she did cry. As I stated, this is pure politics: the headlines tonite and the commentary on the talking heads shows will now be the picture of her crying, the comments Sen. Lindsey Graham made, and how rotten the Dems have been during these hearings rather than the tiff between Specter and Kennedy this morning, which would have made the headlines into the organization Alito had allegedly been a member of and whether it was racist or not. So, I'm glad she got upset, as that is now the story, and not what Kennedy said intentionally in order to get headlines about how Alito was somehow a bigot. Bravo, Mrs. Alito. You done good, whether voluntarily or involuntarily.
BRIT HAS this on NOW
Also.... one of the top five the justice department is looking at for Abramoff is Dingy Harry.
So is that it for the night?
Tomorrow, then. At least Alito and his family can escape for awhile.
Recessed. Schumer is out looking for the worst cigarette made. 'Cause he got the worst sc*ewing of his life today. Kennedy is just looking for the nearest bar.
Just in time, huh? :)
yep, 3rd round tomorrow. ANOTHER day of getting NOTHING done for me.
lol!
I like him, too.... and the smear machine almost kept him from being elected last November.
Source?
BTW, I expect my smite button to be available for use first thing in the morning :)
Thanks for catching me up. The Senate disgusts me.
So are they doing round 3 tomorrow or did that get shot down?
