GOP outmaneuvered Senate Democrats on Alito (Lib Rantings)

Using his tried-and-true playbook, President Bush first controlled the process, then set the criteria for approval, and then controlled the semantics.

I wish they'd get their story straight--Is Bush a witless moron or an evil genius?

[BenLurkin]

There is only one solution for their voters.

Join the GREEN party!

I love the sound of Leftist Hysteria. Welcome to permanent minority party status Losers.

I enjoy the aftermath of the Alito & Roberts confirmations.

All those promises from the lib leaders turned out to be lies that have driven the kook base further insane.

[dynachrome]

Vote for Cindy Al-Sheehan in California, also.

[new yorker 77]

I the days and months ahead their rage and paranoia will grow.

Hopefully triggered by decisions from the Court itself.

First, as they almost always have done for the past 26 years, Republicans have again outmaneuvered the Democrats. And that is what is really important...

We just did it again, Malcolm J. Gross. You were "maneuvered" into writing this piece - and the backlash from it will help us elect another President in a few short years. Thanks again, and keep an eye out for black helicopters.

[Darkwolf377]

I agree. Both times, the libs built up HUGE heads of steam...and then Roberts demolished any opposition with his brainpower, while Alito came across as so human that the bluster of the dem boobs looked mean.

I'm reminded of the Black Knight in Monty Python and the Holy Grail, railing about how he would destroy his enemy, only to have his arms and legs lopped off easily.

"That's just a flesh wound!"

Over at DUmmieville, they must be muttering "What happened?", in in their case, "What the F*** Happened?!?!?!?"

Great post.

[MNJohnnie]

Hopefully triggered by decisions from the Court itself.

Or President Bush getting a third SC appointment. :-)

[jazusamo]

I just learned that the press is in bed with George Bush and his administration. LOL Who is this guy Gross?

[Leo Carpathian]

That control was so complete

Yeaaaah! I can see Bush controlling puppets KenEddy and Scummmer, very clevvver!

[The_Victor]

What are we to make of it?

I'd go with the pterodactyl. The hat and broach are so passe.

" There was a time when Senate committees had lawyers who did the questioning and knew how to do it. The object of questioning in a legal hearing, which this was supposed to be, is not to draw attention to the question or questioner, but to the answer. Here, we got no answers and only more tedious monologues from committee members."

Do you think he was talking about Senator Biden here?

[jec41]

Yep, I agree you were out smarted and then out voted. I can't help it if you were dumb and out numbered. I might suggest that you participate more fully in affirmative action.

The Senate vote is the only vote we, the people, get on who is a Supreme Court justice.

I am still puzzling over this assertion. I guess this makes sense if you think Bush 'stole' the elections.. although trying to discern the thought processes of a moonbat is not for the light hearted =)

Man, can this guy twist concepts or what?

Ask anyone for his or her idea of a judge and you are almost certain to get the word ''conservative'' in the first sentence of the definition.

Judge Ginsburg. Hmmm ... no, I can't quite bring myself to put "conservative" next to her name.

Judge Alito may have a fine record, but it is not conservative. His whole legal career has been about advocating radical change in established precedents and accepted legal philosophies.

Which were liberal departures from accepted conservative constitutional jurisprudence. So does undoing liberalism make you a radical?

The Senate vote is the only vote we, the people, get on who is a Supreme Court justice.

The people had a vote in 2004 to see who got to nominate the next justice. Your side lost, loser.
