Corker's still talking. I heard he's a short guy.
Claims he's 5'7". Here's he is pictured alongside 6'3" French President Jacques Chirac.

Is Corker for real!?

Listening to the "GOP" Chairman's opening is making me sick!

What an F#$%ing liberal moron. Talking about how those in refugee camps "just want to hug an American" how around the world they all love and want to be like America.

How the hell does this guy get voted into office spieling such "kumbaya" nonsense?

Corker has been “influenced” being in the senate for so long.

Term limits needed.

Cardin is a tool...unable to speak without reading his opening statement. At least Corker could speak using his brain.

It is amazing that the libs justify everything for the agenda - means to an end.

He seems to be attacking Tillerson for Russia’s deeds.

He won’t shut up. How many minutes does he have allotted? I keep toggling to the Weather Channel, then check FBN — and he’s still TALKING.

Every last one of them in this hearing should be sitting up there in a jester suit with bells on their hat so that they can garner all the respect that they deserve.

Tillerson should stop.

State that if the Senate FR Comm. will show him no serious respect by seating these proto terrorists then he will show them a similar level of respect and walk out.

What a sad circus.

Cardin....”Blah...blah...blah!”

Now asserting checks and balances after eight years of a dictatorship.

Thank you Mr. Trump. What a fine man and clear thinker this Mr. Tillerson seems to be. I now expect the Democrats to be distressed that he is not sophisticated enough to understand all the nuances of the political world.

Would be interesting to see how Hilly was grilled when she was up for this post , with nowhere near the international experience Tillerson has...
