Chuckie looks deeply troubled, concerned and perplexed in that picture.

Is it just me, or does it look like he lost his nail clippers?

[AliVeritas]

Let him keep talking... he's stalling in hopes the prep docs on Graham and Alito come.

[DollyCali]

If Alito were a dog, his hair on back would be on edge, he would be snarling & his tail would NOT be wagging

[Peach]

I'm going to do some stuff around the house; I just cannot take even the sound of Schumer's voice. He isn't really asking or saying anything but trying to insinuate that he has something terribly important to ask Alito.

[Not A Snowbird]

I may have to mute Chuckie. His arrogance is making my head hurt.

[saveliberty]

:-) I just don't want us to get ahead of the process. I want it to go smoothly but these Dems are like chronic flat tires with bad breath

[ilovew]

My former best friend once told me that conservative essentially means close minded. It always pisses me off when people use that argument.

Persona non gratia [sic]

Chuck Schumer will act so superior
As he guts an opponent's interior.
He pretends he's so wise,
But it's only a guise,
And his motives are always ulterior.

nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!

Looks to me like he had a "man"-icure.

[tioga]

schummer........is roe settle or not......mm, he is an idiot.........

[AliVeritas]

He gets a Clark Kent curl in the front when Chuckie starts.
Alito, don't answer... tell him you can't comment. No wonder Kim Gandy went straight after him after last break.

FOX is the worst news show out there ... except for all the rest of them. :-)

Which is not to say that Fox is perfect, just to say it is better then anything else out there. Still rely far too much on AP for background and filler. AP poisons their info well. They would be better off partnering with the better Bloggers and cut lose from AP. AP is basically a DNC run front group. Their complete lack of anything approaching balance poisons Fox News information well.

Schumer: "Judge Alito - Yesterday you made me bend over and grab my ankles. it hurt all night long. it was quite embarassing. now I'm mad. you're a liar, aren't you, aren't you Judge Alito? Admit it. You're a liar. and you know who else is a liar? Clarence Thomas. He sat in that same chair years ago and said the same things you did. And he was a racist too."

Pretty pathetic Schumer here ... I think he'd better bend over again because Alito is cocking & loading at this moment ;)

[shield]

He was impressive during the Roberts hearings, too.

[saveliberty]

If you happen to run into your former best friend, your response can be that a conservative is a liberal who has been mugged. (quote is from Howie Carr and it works :-)

[conservativebabe]

I simply cannot fathom anyone showing such disrespect toward a decent human being, as Schumer is right now.

It is inexcusable and reprehensible.

[maggief]

Sorry! heh.

[AliVeritas]

Time to invoke the Gins rule. She didn't answer the Roe question btw.
