The Dem playbook
The Hill newspaper gives us a peek at the Democratic playbook for the Roberts hearings. Below are the attack assignments for the Democratic members of the Committee:
Kennedy -- civil rights
Leahy -- Bybee torture memo
Biden -- privacy, personal autonomyand the 9th Amendment
Kohl -- Property rights and civil liberties
Feinstein -- "judicial activism" and Roe vs. Wade
Feingold -- limits of executive powers
Schumer and Durbin have wisely refused to show their hand.

LOL!!
To work. I sit behind a desk at a computer all day. And the fact its after Labor Day didn't even cross my mind, but the fact its about 92 did. I can't say I've been faithful to that fashion tip for a few years now.
About the same age as Janice Rogers Brown:

Schummer must still be rehearsing in front of a mirror. ("Mr. DeMille, I'm ready" moment. LOL)
When do they come back?
any minute
LOL. For those of you not listening via C-Span, some woman was just talking at the stake out position, who said, "to continue the baseball analogy, Feinstein didn't lay a glove on him." LOL. That does not come from baseball.
I think this White House knows just what they are doing. I have all the faith in the world in them.
I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I
LOLOL.
"I'll stand with Justice Scalia."
And you think it's one or the other? I will also stand with Justice Scalia and expect that Hugh Hewitt would as well. Now what?
Still waiting for that Scalia (or is it Reagan Man?)quote.
Not too old then? Nearing 60.
Of course, you do realize, don't you, that if a judge can DEFEND life, then another judge can ATTACK life, right?
LOL, I wonder how many eyes rolled at that remark?
If stupid reporter questions were food, the world wouldn't starve.
That's not the case. I've been posting on FR a lot longer then you have and this is the first time anyones ever accused me of making something up. I have no reason to fabricate anything. If I find it, I will expect an apology from you.
In addition. I never said Scalia made remarks along those lines, as a response to Roberts nomination or in anyway even a reference to Roberts.
Too old for what? :-)
I can't get your link to work. :(
Sessions will be 60 this Christmas Eve....I feel like sending him a birthday present NOW!
To continue the baseball verbage and to add a bit of trivia: did you all know that Michael Luttig was a groomsman at John and Jane Roberts' wedding? Thought that was interesting.
