“You have to confirm him to see what’s in the documents”!

Winner!!

[FES0844]

Ben Sasse was good also.

[onyx]

THANKFULLY, you are wrong.

[laplata]

We’ll have to cross that river if she ever runs.

[Political Junkie Too]

These 10 minute statements by the Senators of either side are meaningless... It is a ritual... They have all made up their minds anyway.

The same is true for "debate" in the "world's most deliberative body." Factions are established long before anything resembling debate begins; deal-making has replaced debating.

You are naïve if you think the Dems are not nasty, vile, dirty fighters.

[Rennes Templar]

And Jeff Flaky uses the time to bash Trump.

Senator Grassley has been masterful in handling the Demonic-rats.

I'll admit I was pulling my hair out at the beginning when he didn't gavel the hearing into order or call for the Capitol Police to remove the screeching harpies from the room, but Grassley showed pure genius in permitting the Demonic-rats to rant for an hour because they were actually itching for a brawling fight.

During the break, even Chris Wallace and Brit Hume praised Grassley, which, surprised me.

I still fault Grassley for not calling on the Capitol Police immediately after the first outburst, but not for his handling of the horrid Democrats.

…but Grassley showed pure genius in permitting the Demonic-rats to rant for an hour because they were actually itching for a brawling fight.

He let it go on because it will be used in TV ads this fall.

[onyx]

You'd better check my forum posts before you ever dare to call me naive about the viciousness of the evil Demonic-rats.

[laplata]

That’s the impression you presented in that post. Maybe the wording could have been better. I understand what you’re saying.

[onyx]

Another screeching harpie needs to be removed.

I'd love to slap the hell out of Blumenthal. He's one A-hole who has no business holding elected office, just based on his "stolen valor" lies.

[Publius]

This will all come back to haunt them in November. I can just see the TV ads now.

"This is the Democratic Party. Do these people look like they are ready to govern? Vote Republican."

[Baldwin77]

Why is Grassley giving Bloom more time ? The Dems would NEVER ever give a R. more time.

[Publius]

When your opponent is in the process of hanging himself, why not feed him some more rope?

[onyx]

No, I merely took issue with that poster's original statement (#58). It's always helpful to follow the entire conversation before commenting.

[Sarah Barracuda]

Blumenthal, the liar of Vietnam, he has the nerve to trash ANYONE..this is all being done to prolong the inevitable..they ALL know he is going to be confirmed, EASILY, it wont even be close, they know this, acting like spoiled children..bringing up the Heritage Foundation like its some horrible group..these people would have NO problem had Hillary Clinton won and she had anointed two commies to the Supreme Court

[laplata]

I agree. Thanks.

[onyx]

LOL

[onyx]

NO problem!

I despise Demonic-rats and had just posted that I think they’re going for the gold on Kavanaugh, despite their (apparent) losing numbers.

Hopefully, their UGLY behavior is a yuge turn-off for squishy Susan Collins.
