I hope that the dogma that lives loudly within the judge (as, indeed, it does within me, too) reverberates around the room, bounces off the walls and quickens the consciences of some of those in the chamber.

Is it starting today? On Columbus day or tomorrow? This I gotta see, Democrats are going to do severe damage to themselves if they start in with false accusations.

It’s my understanding that these Committee Hearings will last 4 days so I would guess a Friday vote to get it out of Committee and to the Senate. Don’t know what happens there except in the end...she will be confirmed.....along Party Lines of course. God forbid the Dems vote honestly instead of politically.

Place your bets for number of Handmaid’s Tale (tail?) costumes in attendance.

I’m going for 15 inside the visitor gallery w/ another 50+ outside.

Today is just the senators bloviating with their opening statements. The real stuff starts tomorrow.

Believe no visitors are being allowed due to covid — someone can correct me if I’m mistaken.

You know the Democrats will viciously go after her adopted children and maybe her handicapped child - you know they are eager to and they won’t be able to restrain themselves. The Democrats are like rabid dogs.

So, will the odious Kamala, Senator “Shut Up” Hirono and Bluemenidiot interrupt Graham two sentences into his opening welcome and remarks like they interrupted Grassley?

I’m betting they do.

Klobichar wearing a “vote,vote,vote” face mask. I’m surprised no one is wearing a “Trump Sucks!” mask.

Sheesh, all her kids are going to be there too, except for the youngest.

Have at it, dems. If you try to Kavanaugh this lady you're going to look like the monsters you are.

“The Democrats are like rabid dogs.”

The Democrats ARE rabid dogs!!

For evidence I give you the 87 year old Dianne Feinstein hurling venom at Judge Barrett, now for the second time.

Speaking of 87 year olds, have they buried the execrable RBG yet? Or does a massive state funeral await?
