No, it was a trap. He had to answer. She would have nailed him on Supreme Court overturns on Civil Rights if he hadn't answered. He is ready for them.

[Mo1]

his answers are too long and she's getting ansy.

He has to sit through all their talking yesterday

Today he gets to answer the questions

[shield]

OK...I agree with that. They've learned from an honest answer as Bork gave. Whereas, Thomas had to invoke the lynching comment to receive a confirmation. Which is a sad state of affairs.

Thanks Mol, I'm on cloud 9!

Wow, he's actually going to answer? Maybe I'm wrong about his 'stealthness'!

This answer is pretty generic stuff.

Aack - there is an answer that I don't really like, that he finds privacy in the 14th amendment (or did he say liberty?) THis morning he said he found privacy in the 14th in answer to Specter, on the Griswold case. I have much less problem with finding privacy in the liberty clause of the Constitution - White's position in Griswold, IIRC.

They opened a new location at Caesar's Bay in Brooklyn last year.

In fact, that's where I got my new boots.

I never made the association with Senator Dim Bulb though.
