Day 3: Questioning Continues
This morning, Round 1 concludes with Senators on the Judiciary Cmte. who did not question nominee Alito yesterday. During Round 2, questioning is limited to 20 minutes for each of the eight- een senators. Chairman Arlen Specter (R-PA) leads off, followed by the others, alternating by party in order of seniority.
WEDS., 9:30AM ET, C-SPAN
LOL. He fell so hard the reverberations should last all day. LOL.
This was explained in further detail yesterday and when you understand the specifics of the case it is a total non-sequiter. Besides the relevant points about mutual funds & the distinction between them and holding stocks in an individual company or Vanguard itself - The fact is that while Vanguard was listed as a defendant in the case they had no real standing in the outcome. The case involved two litigants disputing over whom and how funds that Vanguard held were to be dispursed. Vanguard didn't care whether they paid plaintiff or defendant or whomever / whatever else. They were simply going to be directed by the judgment to pay (a) or (b). The case in no way involved Vanguard proper!
Kennedy just got bitch slaped by Spector!
He did and I think he deserves a nice letter from me for that. That was amazing. Specter was really angry with Kennedy.
I am 5'3 and I wanted to crawl through the t.v and tackle Kennedy!!
Loved Specter's response to the drunken old murderer. Best moment of the hearings so far! Specter and Kennedy both were so mad they were shaking.
>>I wear my hazmat suit! ;-)<<
You are a Great American!
Braver than me!
UNbelievable- except we witnessed it!
Evil- pure and simple. No other word for it.
Arlen gets credit for this. (Despite my general opinion of him) He was TERRIFIC!
Go ahead Teddy, rehabilitate Specter in the eyes of grass-roots conservatives.
Wanders off shaking head in disbelief.
Don't give Spectre too much credit. Although smacking down Teddy was priceless. Not to many in GOP have had the guts to do so in the past 5 years.
Breaking News...
Fat, drunk Senator attacks cancer patient during hearings, today.
I can dream.....or hallucinate
Thank goodness, Arlen didn't back down to the disgusting drunk
Kennedy should be censured and lose his seat on the Jud. Committee...but he won't because he's a Kennedy.
Spectre can be trying at times but this was one of his finest moments.
Kennedy's hands shook badly. At one point he couldn't even pick up the water glass!
Anyone have the audio file of Ted Kennedy ( most probably an impersonator ) asking a nominee about leaving a woman behind in a car, realizing he's been had, then becomes upset and says "it wasn't funny the first item?"
The woman on the left, with short hair, is Alito's wife.
The other woman is not Alito's daughter. His daughter has long blonde hair and is a teenager. She was there yesterday but not today. Perhaps she didn't want to cut classes at high school.
Kennedy deserved being sent to the corner.
MEG, if I had my way, Kennedy would be sent much deeper than the corner......... on a one way ticket!
