Democratic Sen. Patrick Leahy struggled to pin down Judge Neil Gorsuch Tuesday on President Trump's controversial travel ban, as the Supreme Court nominee smoothly sidestepped questions relating to the policy currently on hold by the courts.
Gorsuch instead directed the contentious cross-examination into more general terrain where Gorsuch could advocate for religious liberty, without commenting on the specifics of the case.
“I will apply the law,” Gorsuch vowed, during the second day of his Senate confirmation hearing.
Leahy initially had tried to get the 10th Circuit Court judge to comment on the notion of a “religious litmus test for entry into the United States,” in apparent reference to Trump's attempt to suspend immigration and travel from six mostly Muslim countries and the refugee program.

Leahy is an ossified a$$hole and should leave.
Yes, he is as you said. The hearings remind me of the lawyers in Congress. It sickens me. We need more business types.
Even Shakespeare realized the abhorrence of lawyers. His famous line “Kill all the lawyers!”
When do the democrats ask him about abortion? When do they leak the paid operative claiming he talked about coke bottles 30 years ago?
Frankenstein is the poster child for the uselessness of the RAT Party.
Fail
It was a Coke can.
From what I’ve read we actually did have a Muslim ban in the past & we certainly had an immigration policy that gave preference to those who are culturally similar to the US, until Ted Kennedy screwed it up.
Don’t these people know any history?
It was New Coke.
As you know, history is only something to be used when it favors them.
In history, the Democrats just loved those Russians and their cuddly warm Soviet Union. Suddenly, in 2016 and 2017, the Democrats didn't love the Russians so much.
In recent history, the Democrats despised Comey. Now lately, they like him again.
As a caller pointed out today on Rush, the Democrats were furious with Comey, because they thought he caused Hillary to lose. Suddenly, they switched villians, and now they blame Russia, and have stopped criticizing Comey. And if I understand their reasoning, they can tie President Trump and Russia to Hillary's loss, as opposed to tying President Trump and Comey to Hillary's loss. It sells better. They turn on a DIME!
I thought it was cherry coke.
Anita Hill testimony:
“One of the oddest episodes I remember was an occasion in which Thomas was drinking a Coke in his office. He got up from the table at which we were working, went over to his desk to get the Coke, looked at the can and asked, “Who has pubic hair on my Coke?” On other occasions, he referred to the size of his own penis as being larger than normal, and he also spoke on some occasions of the pleasures he had given to women with oral sex.”
Comey thought Hillary would win. He made the statement that they were looking at her emails so he could clear her of everything right before the election. But his horse, or old nag, came in second. Now he’s stuck. There’s no telling what they got on that fraud.

Leahy is a fat old libtard.
I liked Gorsuch’s confident reply.
He shut Leahy down.
I still cant stop saying Leaky Leahy.
Lord forgive me...I was praying for the ancient windbag to stroke out, on national TV! His face was getting redder and redder...I could almost see the stagnant old blood vessels getting ready to explode!
How about that kook from Minnesota? You can bet she never looked at anything, to a significant degree, regarding Hillary, Obama nor anything else.
What a fake.
I don’t wish for anyone’s death but why do these politicians, both sides, live for f****** ever? Serious question. Is it the lack of stress in their lives?
With a pubic hair on it.
