Sessions is now quoting the Dems when Clinton was Pres and how they thought Judges deserved an up or down vote

Isn't the Judicial Committee basically the vetting process before coming to the floor?

I could see mayhem, if there were no process to inquire of the President's nominees and their standing.

Tell them to keep reading those quotes over and over again! They should put the quotes up on big boards!

One of the Pubbies just needs to ask Barbara in Wonderland to then VOTE AGAINST KUHL. It's as simple as that. If that many of her constituent groups are against her, have Boxer move the VOTE and VOTE against her.

Sessions needs to ask Chuckie to VOTE against Priscilla Owens, just VOTE against her.

We are getting a little bogged down in the senatorial process......again.

"I missed that one. I can guess she's not for them. Just let the majority vote. That's all we ask"

Pyes, one of them is this Judge Kuhl that she had been trashing. Thank God,Senator Baily-Hutchso just corrected the record on the lawsuit Boxer had totally misrepresented. I thought Boxer was mighty snippy when she refused to yield to Senator Hutchison. LOL

That that makes Senator Boxer either one of the dumbest members of the Senate, or one of the most dishonest. In her case, it's a toss-up.

IMO, correct and correct. It's incredible that a low-grade intellect, hack Grifter like Boxer could ever be elected to the Senate.

Should I call and ask them to talk about MemoGate?

Yes, yes, and yes

I think someone in the cloakroom is reading our posts. They are being repeated on the floor now.

Thank you, Senator Chambliss. You almost said it, but it needs to be said a little stronger, and again and again.

Was that Chamblis who ripped Boxer for her hypocrisy?

You have the right of it. The committee is there to keep unqualified candidates from ever getting to the floor (and keep nepotism down to a minimum). Since the committee is part of the Senate rules, their votes are Constitutionally valid.
