Good morning, fellow political junkies. I'm starting the thread early, because I'll be out and about for much of the morning. Follow along, and comment here, as usual..
It is all true--- I heard Ed Whelan from NRO, telling Laura Ingraham this same stuff on Monday morning--she was just as disbelieving as you are...
AND, Ginsberg only had 3 votes against her...
I think THAT tells us much more about the minds of our Senators than we REALLY wanted to know...don't you think?
OK...while he is yapping I will go see what I can put together for supper.
so I just got home and there isn't audio on our CSPAN or CSPAN2 , how close are we and who was the biggest loser so far
Seriously?
I'm awfully skeptical and would like to see the source. These sound more like things that one or more ACLU attorneys may have advocated while she was ACLU general counsel than what she advocated.
Bush rocked as usual!
This [her far-left views] is mainstream? Hardly...and yet the Senate in 1993 allowed an up or down vote in which Republicans crossed the aisle to confirm Ginsburg. But today's Senate is poisoned by a determined minority intent on ideological litmus tests for judicial nominees. Fortunately for the judiciary, the Senate is now at long last confirming judges. Let's hope it continues to do so.
Amazingly (and unfortunately) her views were even "less" mainstream twelve years ago when she was confirmed and yet she was voted in by a Senate that knew she had these views. But back then, the Pubbies were playing by the traditional rules -- the President has the right to nominate who he desires and confirmation is usually assured. No longer.
I swear that Hillary wrote his whole speech. I bet she has her enormous staff grinding out speeches for all of them.
Rolling my eyes Harry is telling us what Stare Decisis means! Barf alert!
Dingy just called JRB a man.
Blech.
Any CBC sightings?
Is it 5:00 yet?
MJ??? What is that?
I'll take a plate of what you're having...if there's enough. :-)
I think I'll get that book and take it with me next time I go see the relatives.
Can you believe this garbage?
I would rather have elavator music to fill the time...
