Good Monday morning, fellow Freeper political junkies. One of the more ridiculous episodes of political theater is about to play itself out on the Senate floor, as the John Kerry-led democrats mount an exercise in political futility which will further expose their total irrelevance..So join us today, or drop in on occasion, for the festivities...

Thanks for the info on the Nixon appointees. It's just more proof that the Republican Party (and Conservatives) are far, far stronger now than ever. The 'Rats and the Left want to stop Alito as much as, or even more than the examples you cited -- but they just don't have either the votes or the PR juice to do it.

If you're looking up "stentorian" you'll find Kerry's picture.

The extraordinary circumstance has less to do with Alito than with the numbers on the court. That's unfair to Alito.

But Mr. Gore said he was sometimes inattentive and missed parts of fund-raising meetings. He told the F.B.I., according to notes of a 1998 interview, that "he drank a lot of iced tea during meetings, which could have necessitated a restroom break." New York Times, 3/11/00

Kerry is so insignificant. He has done NOTHING during his time in the Senate except bloviate.

Ideology is now an official "extradorinary circumstance" and having a constitutionalist on the bench is a "threat" to government.
