Posted at 09:56 AM ET, 09/22/2005 Sen. Feinstein votes no. Vote Yes: Specter (R) No: Feinstein (D) Sen. Feinstein cast her vote no, saying she did not like Roberts answers to her questions and those of other senators, and particularly as "the only woman on the committee," remains unvconvinced that he will act as Chief Justice to uphold basic rights of all Americans. The committee has taken a break for a floor vote.

Has he lost his mind?

He's gotten to the point that he actually believe that just because he thinks and then says something, it's true. He has lost what little mind he had.

He has no concept of the fact that the electorate is the body that must determine the direction the country takes, and they can only do so through their elected representatives.

I love "Scumer" for his name.

It was a typo at first and when was arrowing back to fix it I said, "Hey! That works anyway" and left it as is.

Now,following Scumer who doesn't want the electorate to determine the direction of the country, we have Dippy Durbin, who believes that a judge should be more concerned with his emotions than with his brain. As if his "heart" will understand the difference between arguments made on behalf of opposing sides better than his mind. How can anyone ever believe Democrats are good Americans?

And now Roberts is being excoriated for being careful about saying how he feels. These guys are truly "a piece of work."

Yes, if they had their way regarding precedent, the Dred Scott decision would still be in effect!

" Feinstein seems overly wrapped up in the fact that she has a vagina."

Such a profound observation. LOL...

Court TV is replaying Schumer.

I loathe that sanctimonious piece of crap. Isn't there just one Democrat politician who is able to be honest and forthright....Just One?????

I have said this before:

Socialist democrats ALL legislate from the bench...which we know already.

However, they assume that we will too! That is their error. The Clintons were total political junkies 24/7, and believed everyone else...including Republicans were as well.

They, Socialist Democrats, cannot see anyone being different than themselves.

Schumer is not worth discussing. He is totally off his nut, and all we can do is await his own self destruction.

I rolled my eyes when Kennedy said he's voted for Republican justices in the past. He said this would be the first time he's voted no. LOL!!
