I'll do my best to paraphrase....I heard it on the radio.....

Kennedy made some motion and was a jerk about it....

Specter basically shot it down and said he would take it under advisement....gaveled it down and everything

Kennedy interupted, saying something like "I'll make it again and again and again" ...the implication being that he was going to disrupt the hearing. and that's when Specter basically went balistic.

Said something like You're not going to tell me how to run this hearing. I am the chairman and I told you I'd take it under advisement and I will but this hearing will proceed....and he gaveled the motion again....and moved on.

I didn't do it justice there....If you can't see it on cable, maybe you'll be able to hear it on talk radio....even tomorrow. It was a priceless exchange....
