Good morning once again, all you fellow political junkies. Put on a fresh pot of coffee, put the sticky buns in the oven, put a fresh battery in the remote control, and join us for the latest episode of the world's greatest daytime soap opera, "As the Democrats Bloviate." Yup, once again, it's that time...
If you think about it, every time Teddy speaks a sentence, he should end it with GET AN ABORTION! GET AN ABORTION!!
For such a big guy, he sure does dance around words a lot.
Gah.
Compared to the disgusting commentary on Alito, their exploitation of Meiers is nothing.
Which might be more believable if they didn't force a 1-week delay so that Reid could have a meeting with all of them to discuss the strategy for the vote.
I mean the guy doesn't even look up anymore. He just stands there and reads from the special interest groups.
Yep !
I'm just waiting for the bolt of lighting from the sky to come down
Yep.... Kennedy lecturing us about ethics. I'd give my senator Coburn a nice campaign donation if he's walk up and pour a pitcher of water on the swimmers shoes.
Would meeting with her accomplish anything? Justice Sandra Day O'Connor ruled for the left many times and they reward her by dragging things out longer than needed. This whole thing could have been done months ago, even with the justice Roberts appointment. In case anyone forgot, Justice O'Connor announced her desire to retire in June due to her husband's poor health.
"Some political observers might not remember the national unity that Feinstein recalls under Bill Clinton, who, when he nominated Ginsburg and Breyer, had been elected with 43 percent of the vote. But Feinstein appeared to be speaking from the heart. 'There comes a time when you just have to stand up,' she said in closing, 'particularly when you know the majority of people think as you do.'"
Feinstein's remark is indicative of the Radical Left Democrats, who are so entrenched in the ideology of the powerful groups who fund and manipulate them, and they are so out of touch with America's heartland, that they can claim, as Feinstein did, that the majority of America's citizens think like they do.
Here again, they operate on the premise that the moneyed and powerful ACLU, Hollywood, Planned Parenthood, People for the American Way, NOW, etc., etc., Radical Leftist groups are the mainstream of America.
This is a telling remark by Feinstein, especially in light of a report headed, "Political Storm in US . . . ," which appears on the web page of the Communist Party USA. This Report was presented to its International meeting in Athens in November 2005. Here is an excerpt:
"Some 300,000 Americans demonstrated in September demanding the troops be brought home from Iraq. Many of these people had never attended a demonstration before. Recently more than 1,000 peace vigils were held around the nation to mark the 2,000th U.S. death in Iraq. Polls show a majority want the money now spent on the war to be transferred to rebuilding the region devastated by the recent hurricanes.
"This public mood has pushed some Democratic Party members of Congress to introduce legislation demanding an "exit strategy" from Iraq with timetables, or cutting off funds for deployment of troops to Iraq. Such calls, joined by some Republicans, are likely to grow as pressure from the people mounts.
"Bush's Social Security privatization plan has been defeated, at least for now, by the mass grassroots mobilization of labor, retirees and other people's organizations.
"The Communist Party USA is deeply involved, and welcomed as activists and leaders, in all of these movements. We believe that this growing broad unity and grassroots activity must and will be expanded to thoroughly defeat not only the current administration's programs but the whole far-right effort to entrench itself in power.
"We see the all-people's movement to defeat the ultra-right as a vital step toward building a broad anti-monopoly coalition that will challenge the rule of transnational monopoly capital. Through the struggle for an anti-monopoly platform and government in the United States, we believe, the American people will see that socialism is not only a better way of organizing society, but a necessity. At every stage of the struggle, the core components of the movement are the working class, the nationally and racially oppressed and women.
"Events in our country and around the world show that the struggle for socialism is intertwined with the fight for democracy, for multi-ethnic, multi-racial unity and gender equality, for education and democratic, secular culture."
No
Haven't turned on the T.V. yet but I am fixing to. Just got back from a walk with my neighbor, a committed Democrat. She said "Well, I guess Alito is going to be confirmed" and I said, "Yeah, I hope, I hope" and she shocked me by saying she could not believe that Teddy Kennedy had the nerve to say all those things about Alito because he (Kennedy) and his family have done so many immoral things....so maybe there is hope for some Dems afterall.
Not sure about that, but it's dang sure time to turn off the drunk in favor of Monty Python!
Is that Flug sitting behind Kennedy?
"Hide the ball" is that like hide the salami?
Ooops .. sorry
Thanks for the correction :0)
Sorry...just got done giving the baby her bath....just in time for KENNEDY to get to the floor....blech!!
Now rambling about how the courts must limit the president.
Did he just actually say, Alito only mentioned existing cases, and wouldn't give his upcoming decisions to the committee???
You, Ted! Look up 'impartial', whydoncha?!?!
And he even got Watergate mentioned in there..... :)
How in the world can you see the man behind him? Teddy is so large, I've yet to see him.
Does anyone know if Kennedy has special bodyguards who make sure he can't stumble, drunkenly, and hit his head?
Three strong men could hold him up, I think.
