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.”

She should count her blessings. Ted Kennedy* usually leaves women dead in a car.

Which fully surpasses his cousin who rapes first then kills them with a stolen golf club.

Good Job, tolerant, inclusive, diverse and sensitive Dems. Well done. Now hit the Captial Brewery and celebrate your vileness.

How can something we all just WATCHED HAPPEN on C-SPAN, a national TV network, be "exclusive"?

I'd probably lose it and crawl over the desks right into some pompous ass Senator's face. Like a Carla Tortelli moment on Cheers.*~*

Ted Kennedy is nothing but a bully.”

From my pov, Ted Kennedy should not EVER be allowed to shake a moralizing finger at anyone else. Not with a dead girl on his resume.

I happened to see the headline on MSN this morning: "Round Three for Alito."

When did our advice and consent system turn into a match to beat the President's candidate into the ground with hopes of leaving him so damaged as to prevent his approval?

Something has gone seriously wrong here.

She was touched by Sen Graham's apology, then he started to tear up, then I started to tear up!

Then I just got mad at these bastards for their constant smears.

Yea, the Dems are nothing but liars and cheats. Not the easiest thing to deal with when the other party is trying to play it fair and honest.


Hey, soounds like how they want us to deal with the murdering Muslims. Play fair as they chop off heads.

Come on, guys, if Mrs. Alito cried, I'll bet that she wishes that she hadn't done that and would greatly appreciate it if we all pretended not to notice. The last thing that that good woman would want is to become the focus of attention and take the spotlight off of her husband's stellar performance.

**************

I agree. She's probably embarrassed. It can't be easy, living under the constant and unforgiving eye of the media.

But of course, the mainstream media will give these Dummycrat jerks a free pass. Can you imagine if Republicans had driven a member of Justice Ginsburg's family from the room?

"Insensitive"
"Overly Critical"
"Mean Spirited"
"Racist"
"Misogynistic"

Please fill in your own favorite - we can ALL play!

Just for fun, let's put James Gandolfini in the back row of the hearing room and see if these idiot Senators on the left think Tony Soprano has come to support his fellow Italian Alito. God knows they're stupid enough to believe Soprano's a real person.

And jumped up jesu in a sidecar, Kennedy! Can you at least summon up enough brain cells to get the gentleman's name RIGHT?!

It just grinds my gears that this imbecile Ted is allowed to continue being an elected official due to who his brothers were.

The voters of Mass. are so stuck on stupid it makes the other 49 states look bad.

I agree. And for that matter, who among us has not tried to publicly gang-bang a waitress in her place of work?
