Another political dipsh*t who doesn't know his a** from a hole in the ground yet is elected to office to govern everyone else. Does anyone else see something amiss here?

When Al D'Amato called him a p*tzhead, Schumer never denied it!

What we have here is a Job Interview. The Democrats in the Senate want to interview Judge Roberts in order to see if they should offer him the job of Supreme Court Justice.

As the article says very well, these guys don't understand the Constitution.

Schumer Confesses to Not Understanding Constitution

I do believe this is the first time that Chuckie's ever told the truth.

Seems like that should have been obvious. Never been outside of NYC or the Beltway. What do you expect?

I have heard Biden, Reid, and Schumer all say in the last month or so, that the reason it is so important to get the "right" Supreme Court justice is because the Supreme Court MAKES LAW!!!

Yeppers...they all said it...I noted it...and laughed!

I am looking forward to the midterm elections and specifically to the next time Durbin and Schumer are up; it would be a real wakeup call (they did not note little Tommi Daschle) to those whom shrill to loudly

The Judiciary Committee and the full Senate are entitled to know from President Bush's nominee for an Associate Justiceship on the Supreme Court of the United States basically one thing:

what does John Roberts believe is the constitutional function of courts in general, and the Supreme Court in particular—and of the judges who sit on those courts.

Until the Republicans extricate themselves from the judges-as-legislators mindset the Democrats have engineered—and in the process educate the American people about Separation of Powers, as the doctrine applies to John Roberts—they are playing the Democrats' game, and perhaps holding a losing hand.

Well said and entirely correct!

All nationally elected officials should have to take a proctored comprehensive test on the Constitution and pass with 90% or better in order to be put on the ticket.

I don't think Schumer and the rest of his clan are displaying their ignorance as much as they are exercising their arrogance. They first attempted to interfere with the nomination, a responsibility of the executive branch, and are now attempting to require conformity of the judiciary to their political ideology. Maybe it's ignorance as well as arrogance.

Wonder how many could pass the written test imigrants have to pass to become citizens? I venture to say we would be shocked.
