All Franken has done is complain about Robert’s court.

Ugh. Kerry just gave Kagan a big kiss. I think he whispered:

“Did you know I was a decorated Vietnam veteran?”

You all should know that we just were told that Senator Kerry is a decorated Vietnam War veteran!

If I was that partner and Elena Kagan asked me what I did ‘with all that money” I would have told her it’s none of her damn business.

Franken: the Robert's court has disregarded one hundred years of laws...

Franken in his twisted logic , said that the seat belt law for passenger vehicles would not have passed today as it did in the 1960s, if the capitalistic pig auto industries could have lobbied against it with advertisement...alluding to television advertisement. Franken doesn't like free speech.

That thing is actually helping choose our Supreme Court Justices. Anyone that thinks this country isn’t effed up is blind.

I don’t know how much of this I’m going to be able to take. Who is that smirking schmoe sitting next to Kagan. Anybody know?

Phew. Thank God, Kerry’s winding it up.

I’m sorry, but anyone who can praise both Breyer and Scalia has NO judicial temperament.

Is it my imagination or is Kagan staring daggers at Scott Brown’s back?

...alluding to television advertisement.

Fascinating ... he didn't seem to mind TV advertising so much when it kept a roof over his head, food in his stomach.

She almost looks like she wants to throw up on Senator Brown. What a face!
