Actually the only reason the Rats "want" those papers is that they know, on principle, the administration will NEVER provide them, nor should they.

Al Gonzales wrote a long letter to Schumer refuting every one of his objections in spades. And it has some delicious subtle insults in it too.

Howlin, on what reply did you post that letter? Dog hasn't seen it.

Yes, Bush did: he said "I will stand by this man until the day he is confirmed."

Latest Dream:

Hillary drops files on Senate floor which contain copies of the "memos they want".

Hatch politely picks them up AND being familiar with Estrada's writing, holds it right in the cameras face.

The genie jumps out of the bottle, "enhances it" and the game is over!!

Darn, I'm not dreaming, I'm delirious!!

Presicely, and to his credit, Orrin Hatch said as much on the senate floor this morning.

It's those peaceniks. Yet another reason I don't like the anti-war movement.

We're trying to OBEY the rules, as opposed to interpreting them the way anybody might WANT them to read.

Yet again the question "Is he conservative or SOMETHING ELSE?"

Now, if he were "something else" what is the "something else?"

This is a nasty smear...inferring he has some weirdo political ideas or something. Despicable.

If they don't have enough information on him, then they should just vote against him. BUT VOTE!!
