He's personalizing Roberts for the viewing audience, I believe. Oh. That makes sense. Maybe I reacted too quickly.

I guess it's his way of doing it I am not appreciating. He sounds so annoyed at Roberts. ...sounds like an attack dog, ......maybe he's seen some of our posts......and is trying to redeem himself. I still think hes a weeny and a milk toast and all those things for going with that gang of idiots in filibusters and all this is just making him look ridiculous,,,,,,,,,its not his nature

Thank you - I relish any opportunity that I may have to excoriate that pompous windbag. And to think I once lived in New York (shudder). I'll take my Senators (Judd Gregg and John Sununu) over theirs (Evita and the Putz) any day.

As much as LG ticks us off, remember that he was a brilliant prosecutor.

They don't like his supporting McCain among other things. They feel he's not representing their interests. He's a RINO in their opinion, and they don't take it lightly because his voters thought they were voting for a real conservative to fill Strom Thurmond's seat. In other words, he's weak. You see the evidence right here today.

LG wants to show that it should be okay to be a conservative and you don't have to apologize for it. LG is doing conservatives a favor.

He's grandstanding.

Everyone must understand. Lindsey is in TROUBLE. Ravenal is a well funded candidate that came in second in S.C. Republican primaries. It's a conservative state. It's a state that picked G.W.B. over McCain and ruined McCain's chances in 2000. It's a state that is furious over his actions with the Judge PACT, desire to raise taxes, questioning of the war, association with McCain.

Lindsey isn't trying to trip Roberts. He doesn't care that Roberts is there. He is trying to make his name as being a STRONG proponent of Reagan and come out of these hearings back in the good graces of his constituents.

That's all this is, nothing more.
And it changes nothing Linds. I'm still supporting ravenal in '08. :-)

I hope you're right.
Yes, I see now he is describing Ginsberg.

Well, Roberts can hardly comment on that either.

I think Sen Graham has been deviously brilliant by what he is doing...

Yep.

Graham knows Roberts is going to be confirmed and is setting up the confirmation fight for the next nominee. He's trying to grab the middle back from the Democrats and say there's nothing wrong with a lawyer advocating conservative positions for his or her client.

No, he's not grandstanding; he's mocking the Democrats.

It's pretty clever.

He is "acting" hostile in order to show the Roberts will not answer questions from either side and also to prove that Roberts is a conservative.

Yes, LG is grandstanding. He is throwing the crap right back in the dems' faces. Good for him.

Yes! He is double daring the dems to NOT vote for Roberts by using Ginsberg.

OK, now I'm in tune with Lindsay "on this."

Exactly.

Believe me, this was done for a specific purpose.
