Drubin is bringing up Manny Miranda discovering the memos about the plans of the dems. Our side did not handle that by focusing on the contents of the memos, but on Manny.

I don't recall that he hacked anyone's computers. Didn't he just come across this little goldmine in all innocence?

"When this is all over I think we should start a campaign fund to rid the Republican Party of its RINOs in the next election."

You won't have much left.

I fear that many of those you think of as "RINO's" fit very nicely into the traditional Republican ranks of pussy-footing pussies.

* Law schools and the legal profession are currently strongly dominated by a form of orthodox liberal ideology which advocates a centralized and uniform society. While some members of the academic community have dissented from these views, by and large they are taught simultaneously with (and indeed as if they were) the law.

* The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies is a group of conservatives and libertarians interested in the current state of the legal order. It is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.

* The Society seeks both to promote an awareness of these principles and to further their application through its activities. This entails reordering priorities within the legal system to place a premium on individual liberty, traditional values, and the rule of law. It also requires restoring the recognition of the importance of these norms among lawyers, judges, and law professors.

* In working to achieve these goals, the Society has created a conservative and libertarian intellectual network that extends to all levels of the legal community.

You should have heard (I swear I cannot remember WHO it was but it was a Dem senator) on Hardball, talking about how the decision about what was "extraordinary" would be left up to each individual senator. *Rolling my eyes*

Sounds like something Biden would say..

Durbin just said Miranda "stole" the memos by "hacking" into his staff computers. Hack.

They were NOT hacked

Senator Leahey CHANGED the software so the both sides had access to memo and documents

It doesn't take much effort to hack into the "My Documents" folder.

And now here's more Dem-quoting of George Will, "the grand guru of the conservative cause" according to Durbin.
