I would think paying someone to disrupt a Senate hearing would be a pretty serious crime.

David French is wrong. Congresscritters are not glorified pundits. They aren’t glorified anything. They are craven cowards.

Well... Perhaps you should have hung in there a bit further. The Trump bash was brief, and after that, Sen. Sasse’s discussion of part what is wrong (there is way too much power in the hands of unelected and generally unaccountable bureaucracy) was quite good.

I assume he was lecturing Sotomayor and Kagan?

><

Uh, no, he was lecturing the Democrat Senators and others opposed to Kavanaugh.

I want to say that I was wrong about this great American. I watched him today with tears dripping down my old face.. that is one of the greatest orations regarding the the pathetic delegation of constitutional DUTY. Of Congress I have ever seen!! Sasse has been afraid of our President but I forgive him.

Like I said, he’s a nutjob. I’m hoping Gov. Ricketts challenges him in the 2020 primary and sacks his ass.

I have my doubts about Kavanaugh and his Bush roots and siding with the NSA.

The fact that never Trumper Sassehole likes him doesn’t give me much comfort.

I really liked what Sasse had to say today.

But my advice to him would be: get off your high horse re: insulting and demeaning President Trump. The lesson Saint Jeffy Flake learned was that if you make it a habit of saying nasty things about DJT, you’re also insulting Trump supporters. .....And we Trump supporters WILL have our revenge.

What is your opinion of his presentation at the hearing? I guess you missed it?

I’m not interested in anything but the defeat of this Never Trumper sociopathic nutjob in 2020.
