Oh, Schumer thinks that the States have no laws against odometer rollbacks!

I hope the rats try and filibuster, it is only going to blow up in their face.

After the way Kennedy pissed off Specter yesterday, ol' Arlen himself is ready to push the button on the "nucular" option. What a foolish, foolish move by Ted. He went ballistic over a phony issue and alienated Specter in the process.

Here we now are seeing the foundation of the Democrats: supreme federal laws.

I say give Schumer all the time he wants.

Just as long as the hearings end today. You'll notice he needs a written answer from Alioto already. Delay, delay delay is the tactic.

So glad Kennedy's witch hunt ended this morning to save face.

I hope the sob's do decide to fillibuster. What better way to get everyone's attention in the whole country that the dems have gone over the hysterical edge?

Before Alito started talking on Tuesday, I predicted the one week delay in committee, and a floor vote on Jan 31 (vs. the presntly scehduled 1/20). Now I'm not so sure. It's a political calculation in the hands of the DEMs, delay that is. My read of the tea leaves is that they will not delay. That is, I've changed my prediction from earlier this week (howz that for covering the bases?) LOL.

Their BIG PLAY already went pfffft!

Kinda like the Didn't guard the Iraqi Munitions Dump the weekend before the election. Those rats are so predictable. And predictably losers.

Schumer says federalism doesn't make sense. He may or may not be right, but if they don't, it isn't the court's job to change the constitution to make sense, it is the people's job.

You could just as easily argue that some of the rules on qualifications to be in congress don't make sense anymore, but that wouldn't make it right to throw them out without an amendment.

"Chuck's strategy today is to make sure Alito can't answer any questions -- that was Schumer doesn't look stupid.'

Then, Chuckie goes to the media and says, "He couldn't answer any of my questions."

Chuckie did that with Roberts. IIRC.

Kennedy called him a liar. I think that Schumer did too
