"Did Kohl just say that the laws in the Constitution are ambiguous and open to many interpretations?!"

He sure did! He is describing exactly the type of judges we need to get rid of!

I am totally understanding you...and I agree with you, but, I also believe, like I posted earlier...

That if I am comfortable with my own crediblity and ability, and it is a job I want, I would actually be flattered to know that my looks was a deciding factor.

I used to do some hiring...and I have to be honest...that when I hired guys...the looks wasn't the deciding factor, but did, sometimes, make the decision easier.

When I hired women, the looks NEVER that I know of, really entered into it...but, their personality (optomistic, fun)..did play a part.

I don't think one can divorce one's self from their visceral feelings about people given equal ability and experience.

:-) I spent many years working with and for lawyers and focused on the word because.

I have also worked in many dysfunctional environments where I was able to turn a negative operational situation into a positive. I am glad that I never had to worry about my credibility because if I did, I would have been dead in the water given the depth and scope of the corrections I had to make happen.

If Alito is up to it..he should ask for a dinner break, then stay the evening..finish up the first round..that, by my calendar would put Schumer on opposite "Commander in Chief"..LOL
