Feingold sez: "If I only had a brain."

[nuffsenuff]

Graham is just doing what the Dems were doing...

Alito is in. We all know it.

Why not counter the left's attacks on Bush's wiretaps? I like it.

I posted my picture here about a year ago. Some FReepers were overwhelmed, so I had to take it down.

LOL.

Put your picture on here.

Megyn saw mine here ................. dinner at 8:00.

;-)

I think he's following up on some F'gold blather

[Zesta]

You got permission from her husband for that dinner?

I like what he's saying but I don't think it's appropriate for Alito's hearing. He's going to get the Judge in trouble if he answers the way Lindsey wants him to.

[WillT]

I'm not digging Graham's line of questioning either, he is not helping the cause at all. Alito looks bewildered by his questions, and frankly, Graham appears a bit wild-eyed and tanked.

[BreitbartSentMe]

Peek-a-boo
I can't see you...

Maybe that's how the Dems are going to fight Alito's confirmation...

[Zesta]

A really bad transplant! Greasy bird feathers is what it looks like.

"Has anyone read Blankley's "The West's Last Chance?" Great book, highly recommended reading..."

I'm only on the 3rd chapter, but so far haven't found anything I can disagree with. The Nightmare Scenario could easily happen and quite probably will.

I'm going to loosen things up with Megyn before dinner with this gem:

Three old women are talking about their aches, pains and bodily dysfunctions.

One seventy-five year old woman says, "I have this problem. I wake up every morning at seven and it takes me twenty minutes to pee."

1. An eighty year old woman says, "My case is worse. I get up at eight and I sit there and grunt and groan for half an hour before I finally have a bowel movement."

The ninety year old woman says, "At seven I pee like a horse, at eight I crap like a cow."

"So what's your problem?" asked the others. "I don't wake up until nine."

LOL.

no president was above the law when pressed on Bush administration policies on torturing prisoners

Dontcha love the way Reuters puts this. As if the 'torturing' was a US policy and a foregone conclusion.

[Palladin]

Well, I can't draw my image of it, but the thumb is down and back, like in the Uncle Sam poster of "I want you".

[SE Mom]

I was unaware of that tidbit..

[netmilsmom]

I think he is doing fine.

[defconw]

Alito is handling it just fine.

Biggest laugh of the day comes from a Republican joking about Abramoff - good move Lindsay.....geez
