He’s basically demanding she recuse herself from any election case.

I’m going to repeat that.

“Senators CHOOSE not to write clear legislation. They want the ability for lawyers to argue in ways that might be to their advantage whenever it suits them.”

Wait.. it’s only 10:40? This demented, self-important leftist geriatric jack-off is going to pontificate for ANOTHER 20 minutes?

No. There’s a limit. I’ll mute it and keep watching in case someone in the hearing room jumps up on a desk and starts doing a strip-tease (my bet is on Sheldon Whitehouse).

Barrett smacks down the recusal question nicely.

It would be interesting to see a breakdown of how many minutes each senator spoke himself versus how many minutes each Senator allowed ACB to speak. She knows that she has to say the same thing over and over.

He should consult a doctor, he appears to have had a stroke.

Leahy mumbles something

ACB says “Could you repeat the question?

Leahy ( paraphrasing) I didn’t ask a question.

me: Dems hardly ever ask a question. The hey just attack and bloviate.

Leahy’s 30 minutes must be up. Where is chairman Graham?

She equals or exceeds Rush and his half/a brain lead in on his show when dealing with these posers

It’s a shame that the mothers of all these pro-abortion politicians weren’t as big fans of abortions as they are. If they were, these idiots would have been killed and we wouldn’t have to hear these idiots prattle on and on and on!

Amen! These are people running our country. Leahy droning on and on, asking the same question repeatedly. Apparently wanting Judge Barrett to say on record that she would recuse herself in the question of presidential election votes. Another demented individual that libtards continue to vote in.

That’s what I was thinking - but he’s got another 11 minutes (!!!).

It started at 9:00 AM EST and we’ve had

Graham (speech about South Carolina)
Vilestein (trying to imitate a human)
Grassley (talking about his first-hand experiences in the Spanish-American war)
and now the mumbling old idiot.

This is a pathetic display by Leahy. I almost feel sorry for him. The man should be in a rest home.

This is a new one....he says somehow she was involved in something that wanted to criminalize homosexuality.

Leahy is just awful.

Now the old fart is talking about same sex marriage.

Wow, she knocks down Leahy’s pathetic attempt to hem her in by quoting Kagan!

Excellent!
