Specter would have gone off on anyone who presumed to question his chairmanship. It was just a case of "I'm the chair and you're NOT."

[Loud Mime]

Schumer said that Detriot would have trouble making fifty different odometers for cars to comply with State laws. It was a risible attempt to say that we NEEDED federal laws for things that the States themselves could cover.

Federal laws means federal enforcement, means more federal control.

[pepperhead]

Schumer is a repulsive sleazeball. If he wasn't in politics he would have made a good movie villain. The more he talks the more people hate him.

[twigs]

I'm guessing the NJ senators will vote for Alito.

Could be good for the 2006 congressional follies. Let's let people's minds resonate with some of the shrill voices and shriller faces from this "debuate"/foodfight. Heck, maybe noone will be elected.

[Txsleuth]

Dang....on the questions that Alito CAN answer, he interrupts him....

[Loud Mime]

Chuckie is reading a statement prepared before the hearings started.

[Mo1]

LOL ... $10 bucks to FR says they will delay and stoop even lower and call names

I can just hear Reid and Boxer now

[ken5050]

When do they return, and do the witness panels start next?

[Chuck54]

Looks like Kennedy gave his last statement to Chuckie.

Jeez!

Schumer is filibustering on his own. I have heard few opportunities for Alito to speak.

[outofhere2]

LOL

[retrokitten]

Schumer: "I remain troubled..."

Yeah, we know heard you the first 5000 times.

We need to start a Nation Home for Troubled Senators.

[saveliberty]

LOL! I think that they have somewhat wider appeal than just the two of us! LOL!

[JFC]

Let the record be clear. Schummer would like women to abort unborn. Schummer is puzzeled and uncertain. He does not have a choice but to think Alito is a racist.

[the Deejay]

"Dang, giving him 5 more minutes."

Yes and it's the longests 5 minutes I've waited to be up.
