"Can't Spector make them stay on the subject?"

Yeah. It's his job to do that. But, like so many of those Senators, he doesn't do his job like he's supposed to. That makes one wonder... What has he got to hide by doing his job right? Probably lots...

"We can ALWAYS count on Senator Cute-as-a-button, can't we?"

Now he's rebutting the bloviator's claim that Judge Alito has never ruled in favor of minorities. Case after case after case where he has ruled in favor of minorities. Beautiful!

Let's face, Spector isn't listening any more than the others are. Unless they are the ones talking, nothing anyone says matters.

Angela Alioto is a lawyer who is the daughter of the former mayor of San

She has tried to run for Mayor of San Francisco several times, but fortunately has never made it......folks here are stupid, not crazy!! She was on the Board of Stupidvisors in SF, but is no longer a member. She's quite a piece of work! Makes Hillary's voice sound downright pleasant!

It's always the left's favorite argument, isn't it? If I so much as mention that I'm a Republican to a leftie, they wanna scream "Racist! Racist!"

Veiled hint of elitism...."real people w/real problems" would be coming before him.

You have to admit that 'Rat Senators know more about out-of-touch elitism, personally, that anyone else in the country (except for Hollywood actors/actresses, rich limo liberals like Mama T, MSM bloviators, etc. etc. all the usual suspects from the "Party of the People").

Feingold just said that President Bush IS guilty of spying on the American people...and that the justice needs to stand up to the President and TELL HIM he is wrong....
