We have a rule in this household, Dog: If it hasn't got more than four legs and you kill it, you'd better be planning on eating it.

Mice are so small, they're not worth the prep time ;)

All I know is that there is a new kind of trap which doesn't let the mouse slip away and perhaps hide and die in the walls of your house. That's the kind you want; someone at Lowes would know.

The line up for today............get a bucket ready.

SPECTER: So we will proceed at 9:00 tomorrow, and we will have 20 minutes for Senator Biden, 10 minutes for Senator Feinstein, 10 minutes for Senator Durbin. And my expectation is we will not have a great deal of time for Senator Kohl. I'm not sure about Senator Feingold. And anybody else will be limited to 25 minutes on the final round, subject to the Leahy exceptional circumstance standard.

FNC interviewed Mr. Alito as he walked to thehearings today and he said it had been tough on his wife yesterday but she's okay today.

I wish someone would call Judge Napolitano as a witness; he served on their board and denies the charges about CAP the Rats have made.

Of course, he works for FNC so in the Rats deluded minds, this would just reinforce everything they think about conservatives and Fox.

I hope the democRATs continue to overplay their hand in the hearings. Causing Alito's wife to leave the hearing room in tears is making them look like bullies and thugs, which is accurate. This is turning into the Wellstone Memorial, and it could be happening to a more deserving group of dolts.

There was mention in the media that Lindsay Graham helped him...some on the left wailed..the NY TIMES said it was inapporporaite in the he would then be voting on him, after helping him...If Feingold decides to make an issue of it..look for Lindsay to take the gloves off...could get ugly..

Specter will put the kibosh to any serious dust up on that. Feingold may try to have Alito appear less than fully independent, but the "Graham must recuse himself" argument isn't going to go anywhere.

If Feingold tries that, he's foolish. Not that I'd mind seeing it ;-)

Last night on CNN, Biden was being badgered about Mrs. Alito's tears. Finally, Biden blamed Alito himself.

This morning, Biden is saying that the process is broken.

More like Biden just can't put a cork in it

I hope Alito can stand the heat today and kicks butt!

He's demonstrated his ability, in spades, to handle this group of inquisitors. I think the Senators will be brief, and respectful.
