[precedence]

Judge Samuel A. Alito’s wife Martha left the confirmation hearing room in tears this evening, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) apologized to the Judge’s family for the behavior of his fellow committee members during the course of the last three days.

Sen. Graham said: “Judge Alito, I am sorry that you’ve had to go through this. I am sorry that your family has had to sit here and listen to this.”

Democrats on the Judiciary Committee have attacked Judge Samuel A. Alito over his membership in Concerned Alumni of Princeton and his involvement in the Vanguard case.

One senior Republican in the hearing room said of the situation: “After three full days of attacks against her husband’s character, Mrs. Alito had enough. Democrat behavior during this hearing has not only been wrong, it’s been embarrassing. Ted Kennedy is nothing but a bully.”

This is interesting, and bad news for the "shoot ourselves in the foot" DemoRats. Alito is considered qualified by the majority of Americans who won't be impressed by the shennanigans of the Dems on the committee. Their goal of "dissing" Alito will backfire and the public gets to see what ruthless hacks they really are. Alito will make an outstanding Justice.

"Ah, that's how Mr. Alito handles it!"
Nope. The poor guy has to listen since he has to give answers to their inanities. The recipe was for his wife.

I've never been more ashamed of being a Massachusetts resident than I have the past few days.

I work with an attorney, also a lib DEM, who clerked for Alito. He could not BELIEVE the crap the left was spewing about him. Maybe now he understands how conservatives are made.....

Did Sen. Kennedy offer to drive her home?

Mary Jo Kopechne could not be reached for comment.

I have this dream where Alito says "No hard feelings Senator. It's water under the bridge" and the room bursts with laughter as Teddy downs the Cutty Sark in his "water" bottle.

Bullfeathers!!

Those were kinder comments about this cretin senator than I could have mustered.

I suggest that Kennedy stay away from Bullhead City. The natives "carry" out here.

LOL!

THIS IS HUGH(sic)!

It will kill the Dims. They'll look like bullies, which they are.

And all emotion and sympathy will be on Alito, without him looking like a pansy.

It wasn't the booze stinging her eyes...

Ted Kennedy is nothing but a bully

He's so wrong about that. Kennedy is a plagarizer, adulterer, drunk, traitor to family and country, and most probably a rapist and murderer. And that's just off the top of my head.

Patience, Mrs. Alito. When your husband is confirmed to the Court, vengeance will come.

The ancient Greeks said revenge is a sacred act. Definitely in this case.

Will the MSM report this tonight?

Doubt it.

I was listening to Hannity on the radio earlier...and he played a clip of Kennedy trying to take control of the hearing. Specter put the smack-down on him but good. I could just picture old Teddie shaking and turning red. It was great.
