Interesting ....
Also voting in favour of Clarence Thomas:
Breaux (D-LA)
Robb (D-VA) (Puke)
DeConcini (D-AZ) (Gun-grabber extraordinaire ...)
Hollings (D-SC)
Also voting in favour of Samuel Alito:
Byrd (D-WV) (OMG! The Grand Wizard voted for him!)
Other than that, BTW, it was pretty much a party line vote.
Supporters of John Robers included:
Byrd (D-WV) (KKK Byrd again ...)
Leahy (D-VT) (Leaky Leahy??)
Levin (D-MI) (Carl Lenin???)
Rockefeller (D-WV)
Well, now ... What a thoroughgoing rogues’ gallery. What was that about blind pigs, again?
Do you honestly believe that Rudy McRomnabee would nominate the likes of Thomas, Alito, Roberts, or Scalia?
I don’t. Even GWB was off base, once ... do you remember Harriet Miers? I think he saw the conservative reaction to that brain fart, remembered what happened to Dear Old Dad, and read our lips.
