I feel sick. MSNBC just played someone who says that Judge Roberts has not distanced himself from the anti-civil rights group on the far right (or words to that effect). It was DISGUSTING.

I wish I got C-Span3 and could have kept up better with the hearings.

It sickens me that democrats ALWAYS bludgeon the best of men, because they have nothing of substance on GOOD men.

MSM plays right along and that is tragic.

I can get it on the computer, but I haven't been able to stick by the computer for most of the day. It's only being shown on C-Span3 and we don't get that channel.

Just read Lindsey Graham's statement from this morning. What a fantastic statement! My respect for him has increased a lot.

I absolutely cannot imagine sitting calmly in the room while being accused of being a racist. Despicable. Disgusting.

I've heard relatively little of today's testimony and maybe that's a good thing because I could literally get sick just listening to the accusations being hurled at Roberts.

Is Robert's still there? I thought he left after he completed his testimony?

There are bleeding hearts and there are hard hearts. And if I wanted to judge Justice Ginsburg on her heart, I might take a hard-hearted view of her and say she's a bleeding heart. She represents the ACLU. She wants the age of consent to be 12. She believes there's a constitutional right to prostitution. What kind of heart is that?

Right on!

YES! My "downtown Jackson Brown" looks very much like that Pug. Some Pugs have really cute faces and my Jack is one of 'em.

Thanks. I am not a lawyer but was a Political Science major in college, as well my daughter was. A nephew is a lawyer but chases the ambulance quite regular.

History, politics, and the law have always been favorite subjects of mine and I try never to miss a great lesson.

I think these hearings have been one for the ages. I would not have missed them for anything. I'm retired so my schedule was and is very, very flexible.

:)

Thanks; I've listened via computer a few times today. That's only good for when I'm actually near the study. If I had C-Span3 on my cable, I could listen to the testimony in nearly any room in the house or even outside because we have an outlet on the veranda.

They are just trolling for donations, and they can justify that"They Tried".....

This didn't turn out to be the much-needed DEM/LIB Donat-a-Thon that they hoped it would be....

You think all those LIB filled Gulfstream Jets and Limos come cheap??
