[precedence]

Judge Samuel A. Alito’s wife Martha left the confirmation hearing room in tears this evening, the DRUDGE REPORT has learned.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) apologized to the Judge’s family for the behavior of his fellow committee members during the course of the last three days.

Sen. Graham said: “Judge Alito, I am sorry that you’ve had to go through this. I am sorry that your family has had to sit here and listen to this.”

Democrats on the Judiciary Committee have attacked Judge Samuel A. Alito over his membership in Concerned Alumni of Princeton and his involvement in the Vanguard case.

One senior Republican in the hearing room said of the situation: “After three full days of attacks against her husband’s character, Mrs. Alito had enough. Democrat behavior during this hearing has not only been wrong, it’s been embarrassing. Ted Kennedy is nothing but a bully.”

Nice progression photos - you even got my 16-year-old to laugh at that one.

IMHO these clowns make Barney Frank look straight.

In the spirit of being diplomatic about this matter let me be the first to say that the democrats on this panel a vile pieces of traitorous, cheating, murderous, America hating crap.

Chin up Mrs Alito, we got your back

[aligncare]

I've just decided. From now on, whenever I use the term Democrat, it must be preceded by the term, 'racist'.

Thank me very much.

If it weren't for the nameplate, I'd never recognize her.

[Atlas Sneezed]

Exactly what did you see?

[rocksblues]

I am of the opinion that all liberal/leftists enclaves be expelled from the union!

[Pharmboy]

I have it on good authority from Bob Woodward that Haliburton was in on this supplying artificial tears to Mrs. Alito.

All true. But, it's not like their political opponents are human or anything.

[jackieaxe]

Ted Kennedy is a drunk, gin blossomed, jerk. He thinks the nominee is named "Allie Ito", as in Judge Lance Ito's sister. After calling him "Allie Ito", he continued by calling him "Judge". Not for nothing but not knowing how to pronounce the nominee's name shows a total lack of respect for the nominee and for the Supreme Court. The irony that Ted Kennedy got away with manslaughter sits on the Senate Judiciary committee is not lost on anyone except for the most moonbat democrat. For the most part the Dems have acted like jerks, like the spoiled brats that they are. Unbecoming behavior of US Senators. The worst are Shumer and Kennedy. They both stretched the truth until it became a lie.

Just disgusting Democrat behavior.

46... NY has Schumer.

I'm planning on moving to a Red State, and soon.

During the Justice Clarence Thomas hearings. The Dems also want to send a message that if you're a good man or woman and not a leftist, you're going to be drug though these anal probes.

[madprof98]

If that's the best Massachusetts has to offer, can we expel them from the union? ;-)

Kick out California and New York while you're at it!

[Conservative Goddess]

Consider for a moment the implications to be drawn from the fact that that is the best attack they could muster. They are pathetic. I'm sorry that the Alito family has to go through this....but viewing it, it adds credence to the claim that others were chosen, perhaps even before or subsequent to Harriet Myers....but none accepted the call.....

In view of this, can you blame them?

[pointsal]

Ted's a slimeball and his eternal rewards are going to be appropriate.

[Delta 21]

Yikes, this thread is moving along quickly.

[Pharmboy]

Thanks for the tip...I will show it to my 16 y/o when I get home and expect a laugh!

[red irish]

I don't have cable can someone tell me what was said?
