Leahy thoughtful? Please. He is thoughtful only in trying to figure out how to screw the White House and President Bush. And the scene between Trent Lott and Leahy was unbelievable. The judges have been nominated, why do the senators from those states have to crawl to Leahy and ask about the hearing schedule?
The Democrats are whining about not enough time to left in the term to schedule hearings for the nominees, but they scheduled Barbara Mukulski and the contraceptive coverage for federal employees today, also some hearing on anti-aging stuff. But judicial nominees? Forget it. Thanks a lot Jeffords.
