Yeah. I know all that stuff. Women just ain't the ones passin' out the playing cards, so there's not a fair game to begin with.

Ugh.

Buzzie.

What is wrong with these moonbats who continue to insist-contrary to all evidence-that Ginsburg is not a a radical leftist?

There's a coven of them on Confirm Them! right now, lamenting the fact that Alito isn't a "moderate"-whatever the heck that means-like their beloved RBG.

What the hell is wrong with these people?

Do you think being hired because of being "eye candy" precludes one from being respected as an employee?, even if your intelligence equals your looks?

:-) There's a reason why I talk about credibility. I worked in one place and there was a reorg. A new guy comes in and has no prior experience in IT or in project management, but here he is heading it up. So in order to make it a workable environment, I had to get him up to speed enough that he could make his own decisions competently.

He had a huge credibility problem.

>>Oh come on FRiends, you don't want to be disrespected do you?<<

Who says there is disrespect?
I worked on the 40th floor of BP America (the executive floor) as the receptionist.
Part of it was how I looked.

It isn't always disrespect but if you think looks have nothing to do with getting hired, talk to someone who is very skilled but obese. They truly do have a hard time.

Alito is not as polished as Roberts was, but his calm demeanor is similar. He is in command of the facts and is the intellectual superior of every Senator there.

Here's my best guesstimate of the schedule for today..timewise..

Kyle..finishes at 2:35

Kohl..2:35-3:05

DeWine 3:05-3:35

Feinstein 3:35-4:05

Sessions 4:05-4:35

BREAK 15 minutes

..4:50-5:20

Feingold...5:20-5:50

Cornyn...5:50-6:20

DINNER BREAK till 7:30

Schumer...7:30-8:00

Brownback...8:00-8:30

Durbin....8:30-9:00

Coburn....9:00-9:30

Alito should insist on dinner break --make Schumer wait...until the news cycle is over..and if he's up to it..finish the round today..

any thoughts?

I think your crediblity...comes from within.

As long as you have integrity...and believe you are qualified for the job...but, it takes your good looks to get it over another applicant...then, I wouldn't worry about crediblity.
