I called my dim senator's office yesterday to grill the handler about her assertion that my senator needed more information. "Did the senator submit any written questions as White House counsel Gonzalez invited him to do? Did he sit down with Estrada? How does he expect to get more information if he doesn't do these things?" She then claimed that he wants to see DOJ memos. "Why would the DOJ change its rules for Estrada, other than that he's Hispanic? Don't you know how racist that sounds? Not a single nominee in history has ever had DOJ or Solicitor General or other internal memos released to the Senate when considering a nominee? Do you even know that? Does the senator know that? Why is the minority nominee being singled out? Why is a double standard being applied to Estrada?"
It's actually quite fun and best of all the call was free.
