He's an obstetrician.

In fact, his Dem. colleagues-Barbara Boxer specifically-have led a crusade to force him to renounce private practice back in Oklahoma

Good call.

That kind of thin skin makes her very vulnerable in a Presidential run. And her lack of humor

[saveliberty]

Right, sorry for the imprecise language. The lack of progress on Kavanaugh was traced back to her.

So anyone else think they are trying to set up a Filibuster? Look at the language. "Unanswered questions" was the same excuse the Democrats used against Estrada. So two questions. Will they Filibuster? Do they have the votes to block the Constitutional option? I think it would be a complete disaster but I am a firm believer in NEVER underestimating the stupidity of Democrat Leaders.

I think he's on the South Beach Diet.

He doesn't eat anything that couldn't fit onto South Beach.

I was thinking the very same ... this low display, devoid of well-deserved respect and dignity toward Judge Alito and his family .. even for their OWN sakes and reputations .. must propel us further to action. God help us and keep US from them, and it's by our actions (and God's grace) that will happen. This debacle has to be another clarion call to our activism and participation in the process, or the ugliness laid bare here was for naught, and we deserve what we get.

By the way, TheSwimmer thinks he can soften his disgusting, sodden reputation -- how many copies will the DNC buy?

Question: with which dog would you rather swim? (Nice girdle,Ted)

Not one single doubt EVER! NEVER, NEVER can these idiots be allowed back into power!!!

I can't believe there are some moonbats who are actually suggesting she run for President.

She has about as much chance of winning the presidency as Al Sharpton, who-interestingly enough-also took courses at Brooklyn College.

I think they have the voted scheduled for January 20th...they will debate next week for 3 days...

[MEG33]

Thank you!

[Pukin Dog]

No, I do NOT think there will be a filibuster. I think they will consider it, but not have the votes to pull it off. All this bluster is for their crazy constituents, who will threaten their funding regardless. They lost. There will be a lot of TALK about a filibuster, but in the end, Alito wins. Dems just want to make it ugly.

I don't think I'd go that far. I'm not convinced that McCain is really not a dem.

Me neither!

[RedBloodedAmerican]

got ping?

Poll lower right of page; fun place to poll; very liberal paper

I see the person who did the cover art for that book jacket took some liberties with Senator Kennedy's circumference.

When does the judical committee vote?

RE: Potential Alito vote on Jan 20 ...

the 32nd anniversary of Roe v. Wade is on Jan. 22, 2006

Solution to NOT having to bite the bullet and vote McLame is to work like heck in the primaries for getting someone we CAN support and vote for....and most importantly, get elected!

[Do not dub me shapka broham]

Figures.

Volusia Co.

[Txsleuth]

I saw Brian Ross on O'Reilly one night...talk about an a-hole!!!

[Cboldt]

Specter's original schedule is Committee vote on the 17th, Senate floor vote on the 20th.
