“ What’s still amazing is that Barrett answered questions without notes in front of her during the hearings. Incredible.”
So did Roberts. Not as much as a pencil in front of him the entire time he ripped the senators a new one. I was impressed. My impression of him in some regards has changed, but these are truly some sharp, intelligent people.
I watched almost every minute of the hearings. Mrs. Barrett was easily the smartest, brightest, and most knowledgeable person in the room (including those attending remotely by zoom). It was laughable as the opposition tried to lecture her on the law and the Constitution, when she so clearly can run rings around them intellectually and morally.
