Heh, heh.

I would love see how the ABA screening committee would judge Kennedy's temperament, if he were ever-God forbid-up for a judgeship.

I can't remember who it was, but wasn't Dershowitz on the right side once recently? LOL! Just once, but I believe that he was.

Can't remember.

When old Joe was "rum running" I don't think he accepted a credit card or check for his services. Cold hard cash was the preferred method of payment. I have a suspicion the compound in MA has an underground vault loaded with cash. Just a guess, mind you.

I know this post is way late. I just connected to the thread.

I'm sure the dem witnesses to counter these very credible judges will be some thirty-something, rabid partisan ideologues from NARL and the ACLU. I imagine they will come off as pretty pathetic after this.

Talk about needing a shower, I switched to CTV after I read your post --- for about two seconds; that was all I could take.

They had Chuck Todd, the editor of "The Hotline," on the John Bachelor Show last night.

According to him there are only four or five major figures being targeted seriously by the DOJ.

I don't know how accurate that information is, but considering the blowback from the ABSCAM scandal I can't imagine them actually going after many scalps in Congress.

I have been unable to bring myself to turn on the TV.

It's all so distressing.

This reminds me of the terrible treatment John Tower got when he was nominated to be Secretary of Defense.

It will never end as long as the likes of Kennedy and Schumer control the RAT party.

Judge Trump Barry agrees with "every glowing statement" said about Alito. Emphasizes that Judge Alito reveres the rule of law and will serve as a marvelous Justice.

No only a target -- in the top five of the people they are looking at.

Watched a bit yesterday and found it interesting that Mr. Sam seemed most uncomfortable when people were praising him.

A man with true humility. I'm just so proud!

Alan Dershowitz also had a short-lived talk radio show, believe it or not.

His career was about as successful every that of other liberal talk radio "star," i.e. an unmitigated failure.

What's the over/under on the number of anti-Alito witnesses having pony-tails?
