LOl, You see that what's his name objected saying it was not fair. Hatch looked over to Senator Dole and said I yield the floor for a question.

Yes! Finally, and it did not hurt matters when Pres.
Bush sent the message to them this morn. when in his speech
he said "I will stand by this man until he is confirmed"

Chuckie was saying the same type of thing earlier about Estrada having a nice 6 figure income.

I saw that. I replied #553 to post #347 saying this same stuff about keeping his place.

Senator Bunning reminds me of a silver-haired Clark Kent.

He objected because Hatch was letting someone ask a question without yielding the floor! You cannot object to that!

Hillary doesn't know Senate rules! And those Hillaryrats are doing her bidding and looking stupid!

I'm just wondering if all these dems are secretly wearing ear pieces and getting
their marching orders directly from Hillary, like the TV info-bubs wear?

HATCH is Namin Names!!!!

He said the democrats arent listening to their constituents, but instead are following the lead of their special interests... and he said it... the People for the American Way, that he labelled as LIBERAL and from Hollywood. OMG this is priceless historical dialogue.

I once suggested Hatch for the SCOTUS and was jumped on without mercy. I have seen Hatch on the floor, with the same fire and loved how he treated Bush during the debates. It looks like, under Frist's leadership, Hatch can put the pedal to the metal knowing there won't be a cave in coming.

Asking questions if the Dems are trying score political points with what they are doing ..

Hatch says it's a strange way of doing it unless they are doing it for the far left and Hollywood

Oh Sessions is asking a question now

He does me too! Bunning has been an outstanding Senator. Now Jeff Sessions is up who is my absolute favorite when it comes to Judiciary!

Wouldn't it be fun to have a political games bar with C-SPAN on the big screen?

Too expensive to replace the screen everytime Kennedy appears...

You may have a point! It is like they don't know what they are doing and waiting for instructions! Wouldn't that be something -- ear pieces to hear Hillary's instructions.

Wouldn't put it past the evil one!

I just love it when Orrin gets righteously indignant. He was good tonight.

Why doesn't Hatch just come out and say what they really want? Why doesn't he let it out that Hillary already has them anyway and their request is redundant?
