Leahy Lambastes Roberts' 'Radical' Stands

And may I be the first to lambaste Leahy for his leaking of national security secrets?

[Thebaddog]

If I remember correctly, Leahy's record as a prosecutor was that he went after cow tippers. His record as a senator on the Intelligence Committee was that he leaked sensitive information that would get you or me jail time for the same infraction.

Quite something to have a "Demokratic Socialist" calling anyone radical..Leahy is nothing but an enemy of his own country...communist POS...period!!!

[Corin Stormhands]

Senator Leahy, the Vice President is on line one...

[NavySEAL F-16]

And, he read this under his "apple tree"?

[diverteach]

So having morals and a spine makes you a radical Huh?

[JoeSixPack1]

So Leahy has emerged from sitting uunder the apple trees and this is it?

[Aetius]

Well, if Roberts isn't as conservative as we hope he is, you'd think that he will remember who it is who has supported him and who has attacked him.

[Hardastarboard]

In any sane country, Leahy would have been hung for treason by now. The fact that he's still in the Senate is criminal.

[sgtbono2002]

Blame it on the people who put him there.

"among the most radical being offered by a cadre...

Notice how easily the language of armchair Communist revolutionaries slips from Leahy's lips... I fully expect that the next statement to issue from his office will complain about the "imperialist running dogs and their lackeys", or have "El Che vive" as its theme...

[Zeppo]

Leahy spoke out as several officials said People For the American Way, a prominent civil rights group...

No doubt the AP would also describe the National Rifle Association as "a prominent civil rights group"... ( < /sarcasm>)

[FROGTOWN CONSERVATIVE]

Old Leaky strikes again

[BenLurkin]

I don't think he would have cared for our founding fathers either.

[SandRat]

So, Sen Depends (aka Leaky Lehey) the Vermont Democrat said in a statement that Roberts' views were "among the most radical being offered by a cadre intent on reversing decades of policies on civil rights, voting rights, women's rights, privacy and access to justice."

Radical like what telling the truth, being honest, moral, and a true Christian.....?

[FlipWilson]

Bold prediction, the dems will find some reason to fillibuster Roberts. I hope they do fillibuster because I believe they will lose big time.

[John Lenin]

They are waiting to get even more insane during the hearings. Watching the RATS self destruct is a joy. Yes, they really are this stupid.

[Soul Seeker]

What happened to the ""Gentleman" Senator? LOL

And wasn't the WAPO recently making the case the Dems had conceded? Well, I suppose it's possible and this is just show for their kooks that vote for them, but I will never trust these people.

Until Roberts is confirmed and on that Court, and they are all dead, only then trust will be given they are through trying to sabotage him.

And, I think folks had better prepare themselves. Should we eventually get to that 5-4 Constitutionalist marker, the Libs aren't going to suddenly concede defeat. I wouldn't be a bit surprised fs we get a Court that functions as it should, if they suddenly think it a grand idea to use the tactics they used against Nixon, Reagan, Bush etc...against the Justices on the Court.

[FlingWingFlyer]

A Commie calling a Supreme Court nominee "radical." ROTFL!! Leaky Leahy cracks me up. How anyone can take that moron serious (series) is beyond me.
