The confirmation hearing for Gen. David Petraeus to be ISAF commander began a few minutes ago. The second day of the Elena Kagan Supreme Court nomination hearings began around 9 a.m. They're on the cable networks for the most part. FOX, CNN and MSNBC are dipping in and out of the hearings depending on who's speaking.
The Kagan hearing is being shown live on C-SPAN 3 and online at C-SPAN here.
The Petraeus hearing can be viewed online at the Senate Armed Services Committee Web site here.

"
How can the GOP possibly confirm this woman? If they don't filibuster kagan there is no reason to support the party as it currently exists
I've never seen anyone less qualified"
Agreed, 100%. If the (R)'s don't take a stand here, that only gives conservatives all the more reason to abandon the GOP and look to other groups like the Tea Party. They must grow a backbone and filibuster kagan, she would be a disaster for the Constitution.

Amen to that. The Dems have 51 votes. I just don't see what the GOP has to gain by voting yes on this woman. Seems like they have a great deal of credibility to gain by filibustering or voting no. The excuse, I suppose, is we don't oppose their nominees and they won't oppose ours. But they do oppose ours, all the time. Stop being so damn polite, for the love of God!
On a personal note, she is ugly, boring, arrogant, and condescending, and I so do not want to have to look at her for the next. 40. years. When she says "the American people" I want to slap her little rich girl face.

Which is evidence that Kagan is not qualified to be a supreme court justice.
A person with a track record of using an executive position to promote activism should have no place in discernment of constitutional law

Hey which KTM do you ride? I rode a 1975/76 350 (Mint 400) back in the day and it was tuned and ported.

So I guess for the first time SCOTUS will have two lesbians. I guess they can par-tay with Big Sis and Uncle Janet when she comes to town.
