I think this is going to be either a really boring day or a really boring day where Senators make 15 minute speeches on how Judge Alito will turn back time and destroy not only our Country and Constitution, but the very fabric of space/time itself and at the very instance he is sworn in the universe will cease to exist.

Hatch live on C-SPAN expressing concern that many DEMs on the panel, and some of the GOP, seem to already have their minds made up. I think he raises the GOP "examples" to avoind the appearance of being partisan.

"What we heard to day were long statements of charges ... the American people shoudl understand that what is said by the Senators is not evidence. The evidence comes from Judge Alito." (my prapahrase).

Reporter asks if Senators can't come to a conclusion by reading Alito's opinins. Specter charges slective reading, sicne Alito has so many opinions. Specter reiterates that charges without an answer back are not fair. Give the nominee a chance to speak his piece - you"reporter" are reading the charges of Senators as though they were criminal indictments (meaning there is evidence on the other side too, and Alito needs opportunity to speak).

Specter's comments here will make the news.

Well I am proud of Senator Doctor Tom Coburn, Texas Senator Croyne, Kansas Senator Brownback and one or two others.

Finally someone came down on the hypocrites calling themselves Dimocrats.

Corburn burned the hell out of these immoral lots like Illinois Senator Little Dickless Turdbin, New York Senator Chuckie Smucker and others.

I thought Corburns speech about the brutality of killing an unborn child and saying that those who purport killing these babies are the same ones who scream loudest about civil rights.

Alito has wings and will be confirmed.

Glad to see the thread. I saw some of it.....Feingold, et al made fools of themselves, in my opinion.

Especially the ones who said that the President does not have wire-tapping powers in war time.
