Is Kennedy really shaking?

No, I was just kidding

[sageb1]

I've been trying to talk O'Reilly into interviewing Chomsky. :)

[maggief]

He needs a shot of scotch and a waitress sandwich.

[tiredoflaundry]

My husband recieves Alumni stuff from his school ALL THE TIME! He throws it out without even opening it!! Gawd!

[Mo1]

These questions are a COMPLETE joke

[syriacus]

Dear Tedward.

Please ask Schumer why he belongs to an organization which excludes women as full members.

Here's a question that Chuckie will dodge-- "Can a woman belong to your lodge?" Female Masons he'd thwart, But he'd help gals abort. His thinking is such a hodge-podge.

Haha! Alito's wife laughed at the way Tedward tried to phrase his question.

[antceecee]

It is very disturbing to watch the likes of Feinstein and Kennedy question the integrity anyone.

[Semper Paratus]

Actually, Bill Schneider is the worst of CNN

Have watched him for years and he has yet to find a poll that he can't do a liberal spin on.

[andrew2527]

cool, thanks.

[pabianice]

Ted Kennedy knows integrity.

[retrokitten]

Does he assume we are all idiots?

Yes.

His tone of voice- is hilarious...like he CAUGHT ALITO in a lie or something...

He had a horrible constipated look on his face to go along with it, too.

[finnman69]

Kennedy "I only have a few minutes left" this is after asking for a few minutes"

[Terriergal]

Ah now I get what he's accusing him of. HE doesn't like the idea that Alito thought the ROTC *should* be allowed on campus.

[Peach]

Oh, and Kennedy is an anti gun zealot. So it was pretty surprising to find out that his bodyguard, Chuck Stein, was arrestesd at teh Russell Senate Office BUilding for carrying unregistered weapons.

The weapons weren't pea shooters either. He was carrying a handgun, TWO submachine guns and 146 rounds of ammunition.

See - it's protection for me but not for thee.

[Dane]

Ted Kennedy is making the spanish inquisition look like Mother Theresa, unfreaking believable.

The libs are nuts.

[Cboldt]

Alito is plainly FED UP.

Being a nerd, he likely resents the waste of time when more difficult and material questions could be in the air.

[conservativebabe]

Let's see if the rebuttal strategy holds true after Grassley gets up.

Hope he smacks down Kennedy next.

[Howlin]

my husband just came in, asking why i watch this; then he saw kennedy and died laughing

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

My staff reviewed the issues of Prospect, from 1983-1985.

What a surprise, the drunkard and blowhard doesn't do his own research.

Will wonders never cease?

[rwa265]

Ain't blowing up; just fizzling.
