LIVE THREAD: SJC hearing on the NSA surveilance program - C-span 1; 9:30 am EST

Posted on 02/06/2006 6:08:53 AM PST by ken5050

Good Monday morning, once again, fellow political jinkies. The NFL season may be over, but the political season inside the Beltway is 24/7/365. So join us, if you can, as those wacky Dems on the Senate Judiciary committee reprise their pitiful efforts to once again smear President Bush and score political points..

In video from outside the NSA Hearings, Senator Dick Durbin is questioned by Paul Mirengoff for Pajamas Media and Power Line. Durbin is a little confused about who we are.

Kennedy just said he's hopeful.

I guess he realizes the constant mantra that "we're concerned" didn't play well.

Yes it is about the asbestos bill.

Reid accused Spector of allowing lobbyists to write the bill.

Guess a lot more was said that brought Specter to near apoplexy. Accused Reid of slander, etc.

Fatboy is a bit subdued so far...

Is he sloshed?

What's his purpose in asking questions whose answers are classified?

Is to get a public non-response? ("reluctance" to respond - as he just called it?)

After the rudeness we just saw from Schumer and crew, Kennedy is sounding downright polite.

Next he'll bring up the telegraph companies...

And that Samuel Morse and Hiram Percy Maxim are stooges of the Bush administration.

That's mother-in-law thank-you, not mother! Allthough, as mothers-in-law go, she's a real mother!

Specter: Kennedy just mentioned that we would renew or look at the voting rights act, especially in light of Coretta Scott Kings' death.

We're going to look at that and we'll schedule hearings early on. They have to be comprehensive and it's a matter of great concern to everyone on the committee.

Riiiiight. They aren't so concerned that they'll permit a photo id requirement for voting.

Uh oh...

Is that a wine glass I see...?
