The Democrats on the Senate Judiciary Committee wound up looking like the group of boobs that their behavior has demonstrated them to be when the vetting of the William Rusher papers elicited no mention whatsoever of Samuel Alito in connection to Concerned Alumni of Princeton or anything else that could paint him as the bigot that Democrats insinuated he was:
Earlier, the panel's chairman announced that staffers had examined records of a controversial Princeton University alumni group once cited by Alito in a job application, but had found no mention of Alito. While the alumni group appeared to fizzle out as an issue in the hearings, Sen. Charles E. Schumer (D-N.Y.) told Alito that Democrats continue to be disturbed by some of his judicial views, making it "very hard to vote yes on your nomination."
Opening the fourth day of the confirmation hearings, Sen. Arlen Specter (R-Pa.), the committee chairman, announced the results of a records search that was requested by Sen. Edward M. Kennedy (D-Mass.) and that triggered the sharpest exchanges of the hearings among senators yesterday.
ROFLMAO
"What do the "People for the American Way" have on Sen Ted Kennedy????"
Comments I read from someone at the hearing relates as how Kennedy doesn't do squat, doesn't know squat his staff does everything. Thus, if they're relying on the bloggers etc it's easy to see how the BS gets into the mix.
Kenedy gives Geraldo a bad name.
I figure that Ted is so pickled by now, he's a meatpuppet for whoever it is on his staff who has the key to the liquour cabinet.
