Today Show/NewsBusters who-is-Liu ping.

Oh, and just for good measure, in 2003 he co-authored an article in the Georgetown Law Journal with . . . Hillary Rodham Clinton.

LOL! Did she sue him afterwards?

[strange1]

"It would've been helpful if there had been more ammunition. If there in fact had been something there they could directly link Judge Alito to."

Damn Alito for being the person he is. Why oh why must he be so perfect. /sarcasm

[beyond the sea]

It started off with a bang and ended with a whimper."

Hmmmm ..... I must have missed the bang.

Peggy Noonan did well describing Biden's bloviating:

****

"The great thing about Joe Biden during the Alito hearings ............ that he is incapable of staying on the river of a thought, and is constantly lured down tributaries from which he can never quite work his way back--you can see him batting the little paddles of his mind against the weeds, trying desperately to return to the river but not remembering where it is, or where it was going."

"little paddles of his mind" --- ROFL

You've got to be kidding me .... HAHAHAHA

"It would've been helpful if there had been more ammunition..."

Re-interpretation: Why didn't Alito give us more bullets, so we could shoot him with them.


Another paraphrase: I love the smell of Desperate libDems in the morning. They reek.

I caught a couple of minutes. Long enough to hear Timmy try to blame the Pubbies for making Mrs. Alito cry.

Nice try, Timmy.

And I noted the prof was from Berserkley :) Explained a lot.

Noticed your "LauerL".

A harmonic convergence! :)

Peggy Noonan also went on to say about Biden's meandering, listless, and confused bufoonery:

"Biden is like "a garrulous uncle after a drink". Made me wonder what Chappaquiddick Fats was ----- the dirty old, stumbling perv down the alley after the whole bottle?

[TomGuy]

Right.

The complaint for day 1 was that the Dems weren't 'aggressive' enough.

So day 2 was when they were in attack mode, when Kennedy had his rant with Specter, when Mrs. Alito left the room in tears, because the Dems seemed to feel they needed to ratchet things up.

On day 3 they seemed somewhat subdued, as if they had read the overnight polls and came off looking like donkeys' posteriors and decided to tone down the personal attacks.

It just wasn't too good for the Dems, all around.

Should another SC vacancy occur, we might see more fireworks to ensure a more liberal nominee. Providence might assist a couple of the elderly ones who, so far, refuse to retire.

Not kidding! Check out second para of Liu's official faculty profile:

I hope that Judge Alito orders Teddy's feeding tube removed, as it is quite obvious that the senator is brain dead.

who is Liu

I'm pretty sure he interned for Ginsberg.

[YaYa123]

I watched the panel which included Professor - Ginsburg Clerk - Hillary Co-Author- Liu. ( A most articulate, youngish, bookish man of Asian persuasion )

Even as Liu opined Alito wasn't sufficiently PC, liked it when cops beat up on 8 year olds, and might be anti-black, he praised to the heavens Alito's brilliant mind.

When Liu was challenged by Republican senators for cherry-picking a few cases to prove his biased point, instead of defending his opinions, Liu countered with even more praise of Alito's strong points.

Last night on FOXNews, Brit's panel agreed, (even Mira), that the panel of witnesses was unnecessary. Just like the last few days of democrats' pummeling Alito with bogus and nasty atttacks, the panel did nothing to harm Alito's confirmation.

Goodwin Liu = Friend of Hillary Clinton

That's all Russert needs to know for them to be an impeccable source.
