She's pathetic! Her little "ohhhhh kaaaay" was supposed to be dismissive. Give it up F-swine, your out of your league.

I would not be relaxing quite yet, as the Democrats are placing all their hopes on Schumer. He is expected to get downright nasty when his turn comes.

The Dems have read the tea-leaves and they know they are losing. I hear that the quote from the MSNBC babe about them "not laying a glove" on Alito, has got them ginned up for the later sessions.

I will relax when/if the Schumer session goes well.

He has lost weight noticeably. He also never released his medical history (tho' I must admit I don't see why any candidate should release more than the basics but it's become customary), so who knows what he may have caught earlier.

Uh-oh, I wonder if this might effect his sex life - I mean if he did have a stroke.

Great idea! I have been doing that for years and won't give it up.

It is funny when I have to carry it into the house though. LOL! Somehow a "small" tree winds up being 6ft.

This is a great improvement because a couple of years ago, a small tree was 7 and a half feet. LOL! And oh did I have a fun time getting that up LOL

...how do machine guns effect interstate commerce?

If a state were to set up roadblocks to violate the Insterstate Commerce clause, Peterbilt et al could mount them on the front of the trucks to get the commerce through. There. See how easy?

DiFi clobbered in print by Kate O'Beirne of NRO ...

DiFi is, I think, the "best" (most effective) antagonist so far. Leahy was next best. Interesting that DiFi's first line of attack is commerce clause and federalism, under the issue of gun control.

Now she's moving on to Roe, where I think her attack won't be very effective. He's good at explaining his methods and application of legal principle. She's looking for a specific example, which she won't get ;-)

Hi...I haven't had acces to TV today, and only minimal for computer. I will read the entire thread tonight, but I trust Alito is doing ok. Your comment about Schumer being the Rats' lst hope seems to indicate it.

I will read along through the rest of the thread. Thanks to all who comment and report for those of us who can't watch!

I don't hate them. I just don't respect them and for them that's worse.

They realize, probably after MANY calls from constituents, that the judiciary is probably THE MAIN REASON they are in power - so they best do their best on this front if no other!

They remember Miers.
