Whoa, you mean Murkowski voted for cloture and Snowe, Collins, McCain and Graham voted against? Maybe the end IS near...

These Democrats are full of it.

As far as “qualifications” and “extraordinary circumstances”, where the heck was Dick Durbin and others when John Kerry tried to mount a filibuster of Judge Alito’s nomination, for example???????

“Asian-American”?

He’s either an Asian foreign agent, or an American.
The implied plea of victimhood and discrimination for someone claiming to be qualified to hold a seat on the circuit court would be laughable if it were not so pathetic and disingenuous!

I hope we have seen the last of this liberal socialist. Trying to appoint him to the most liberal court in the land - the 9th circus! Maybe, Obama has had enough kicks at this pig. He was nominated in 2009, 2010, and now 2011. Enough already.

Liu is your basic Chicom cheerleader. We really don't need more of his kind.

It's safe to assume that Obama put him up for this job because of his ideological and personal relationships with Big China.

I have no doubt that Judge Alito has the training and qualifications necessary to serve. He's an intelligent man and an accomplished jurist. And there's no indication he's not a man of great character.
~Senator Hussein Obama, January 26, 2006

The Kenyan said this yet he opposed Alito.

Screw the marxist bast*rd.
