Welcome, all you Freepers, to the continuing C-span soap operas about judicial nominations. "The Guiding SEARCHLIGHT, " "As the SENATE Turns, "One NOMINATION to Live" "GERIATRIC Hospital" (for all you Byrd and Lautenberg fans out there). Follow along with us, as the Dems raise the level of histrionics, bloviation, pontification, and all around bad acting to new highs, er, lows...
Didn't she just get re-elected, also?
Murray hands down
Boxer is playing up to their base and she knows it
I don't know, they are all pretty lame on the D side! It's like a traveling Freak Show!
Did the Dems write one speech and then modify it slightly for each speaker?
That's what's really causing all of their gnashing and wailing.
It's not so much about judges as it is about their opposition to us and our President.
Yep .. he comes on at 6pm here
Uh oh, I haven't seen him recently either. Somebody better find that weasel!
Well, I defer to you, but isn't Cantwell stupider?
Washington state definitely takes the combo stupid Senators title, though.
They've been using this same speech for the last five years.
As somebody said, they've told so many lies about so many nominees, they've raised the bar so high that when Scalia comes up for chief justice, they're going to have to say he murdered somebody.
That's why I'm suspicious. He scuttles around the halls of Congress like Iago, whispering "insider" stuff to dim-bulb senators and congressmen. I know that is what he did to get Jeffords to jump ship. He was the ONLY one who had the scoop on that story, and since no Rat would talk to him, I think he pushed Jeffords by telling him the dairy subsidy was going to be ditched (which it wasn't). He was entirely too gleeful reporting his scoop to Brit Hume.
No, Ralph Neas (People for the (un)American Way) wrote it and they are just passing it around. BABS Streisand could have written a couple of sentences too.
And to hell w/senators' "comity". Scrap it and do the job WE elected you to do. Get moving because we are watching and taking name$.
You are right--I think---because she was the one right after 9/11 that praised OBL because he provided the Afghanis roads and CHILD CARE!!!!
Oh it is already past five? I was having so much fun I lost track of time.
Patty Murray is an absolute simpleton and is a good representative of what has gone horribly wrong with the democrat party.

And the state of Seattle.
I called Lugar's office, but all I got was the answering machine. I left a message and told him I hoped he wasn't in on that compromise, because I was going to do everything I could to see primary challengers win against any who were.
Good for you. I've got to get cracking w/letters. Someone said aides counted them as to pro or con piles.
WOOZER! I left the thread around the 1500+posts and wow came back to over 2300+posts! YOU GUYS ARE SMOKIN! :-)
