OTHER LIVE LINKS
Biden isn't talking about Bush wiretapping 80 year old grandmothers! DUmmies must not be pleased.
Kennedy does not have clarity of thought- no surprise he can't speak clearly either.
Biden, Biden, Biden. Grow UP.
Did I miss something
Or has not any of the Dem Senators mentioned the words abortion or Roe v Wade?
All I keep hearing is "right to privacy"
Biden: "We must protect those who can't protect themselves...."
like the UNBORN?
He did????
WOW....I have been so upset about the way Delay has been treated...
If he could get that report and have it released IN FULL...we would have to really send this man something special..
Can someone photoshop a PIC of Alito doing the crossword puzzle while Biden is speaking?
Alito is not falling for the phony Biden smile.
I got here late because my husband came home for lunch. We were listening, however, and my tolerance of Ted Kennedy in any capacity, even as a human being, has ended. He used his time to lie about the President and lie about Alito. What a disgusting slug the Swimmer is!
Biden talking about sensitivity and every day people.
Yes, Senator....Alito is an elitist who has never pumped his own gas.
Biden is nothing but a dim-witted donkey. What is wrong with Delaware anyway?
You got me ... sounds like the same poll that Murtha waves around
That would good.
Thank you!!!!!!!!!!!!!
You are obviously as sick of hearing that as I am.
Right at the end he told Tony he would do his best to get it out there. We all know what that means. "HAMMER TIME".
Code= Right to Privacy= Abortion
Biden just said "Judge O'Connor showed sensitivity to the effects her decisions would have on the little guy".
Quick! Calling all Constitutional scholars! Find the place in the Constitution where we are to uphold the law based on sensitivity? Please, oh pretty please.
biden is engaging in arguments of cultural relativism, not constitutional ethics.
In other words, he's purely liberal.
I just remembered
Diane Feinstein mentioned on Fox yesterday that 70% of HER STATE agreed with Roe
Maybe that is the poll they are talking about?
