Justice Ginsberg set that standard.

Yet again you fall back on they did it first .... copout, and add nothing to the conversation. No wonder US politicians are so corrupt (both sides of the aisle).

Shirt, hell, hat, pants, what kind of after shave, where did he take his wife on their first date, lol.

Lets get to the grass roots of this. What was he doing when he took a math exam in 7th grade. These are vital things we as a nation need to know before deciding if he is good enough for the supreme court.

Nevermind the mountains of case law he ruled on or anything tangible in regards to what his actual job duties would be. These facts need to be known!

Of course you instantly excuse all Democrats for their actions. Why would Alito not follow a working confirmation strategy?

If you want to accuse Alito of lying on his resume, well, the burden of proof is on the proponent.

I am in the minority here.. I hate all politicians so I don't know who did what first.. all I know is that two wrongs never make it right.. right?

Of course, you actively villify republicans, while you fail to mention Democrats at all. Passive hatred, eh?

Jesus - talk about the pot calling the kettle black! You could see Tom DeLay feeding children into an oven and you'd find a way to rationalize it. Speaking of whom, do you still think "any reasonable person" would agree TD will be returning as Majority Leader?

Nice generalization there, name one instance where I have excused all Democrats? You are the one who does blanket attacks on al that is Democrat and protects all that is Repubican.

As far as Alito, the hearings are over, so most likely nothing will come of it.

Who is in the majority here.. I would also say that with that majority power comes even more corruption and you cannot deny that.. give me dome factual democrat corruption and I will trash it all ... I trash you and your party because you are in power and your parties actions affect me more than those who are not in power .. wouldn't that be obvious

Only time will tell. When did I claim to hate all politicians equally?

What the hell is wrong with you zendari? Is your life so full of hate and anger that you can honestly think that right after he called Joe Biden a fruitcake and a POS?


Get help, please. You used to be just really amusing, now we're lapsing into pity for you. Anytime you try to mention partisanship of any kind everyone here laughs at you. Just stop.


Edit: well doh - somehow i thought you were addressing dahunan, not uhtrinity, my apologies. But your long and frothy defense of DeLay and Abramoff doesn't exactly make me feel any different...

I don't like the standard they use, reguardless of who started it. Saying alot to say nothing does not work for me.

It's obvious that you don't and that is where the problem lies. It's hypocritical.

edit - Thanks for that statement, it is timeless

Not at all. I dont have a problem with any judge Democrat or Republican BSing their way through the hearing. It's not like Ted Kennedy would vote for him even if he gave a pregnant woman an abortion himself in front of the committee.

And maybe that is why our governement is corrupt as it is, and why we have so many cronies, because BS is accepted. You might not care if it happens, I do.

The majority has capibility (and responsibility) of fixing it .... party of moral responsibilty my ass. And I will bitch out the Dems if they have their chance at a majority and do nothing to fix it.

Helps to have cheerleaders asking the 'tough' questions. Fanbois rule. Still kind of perplexing why he can't remember being part of a sexist/rascist organization that he thought enough of to include on his resume.

Especially when he was 'Greasing' his resume for reviewing by Reagan's people for the job.
There had to have been someone on the inside that was looking for that 'blip' in his resume & character reference.
Had that nebulous reference not been there, would the Reaganites have taken him ?
It appears that lots of what he did was to hone his personality to fit in the conservative mindset back then.

I have ommitted some past things in my more recent resumes through consolidation of type work activity,
but I haven't conveniently 'forgot' things like working on fighter jets, bombers, missles,
airliners, etc.

It's good to see that checks and balances are so important to you.

The are. If Ted Kennedy wants to vote no, he can vote no and I wish him the very best.

For sure. Today was a hilarious session with desperate Dems grasping for air while Alito sailed right by.

Schumer's pre-prepared notes and conclusion were comical, particularly since Alito actually agreed with him on several points - he certainly wasn't expecting (nor prepared for) that.

 

[TheSlamma]

What is smart about never saying "yes" or "no"?

Just a bunch of lawyer talk never giving a straight answer until they get in power then they flex their actual opinions.

 

[Perknose]

Shoo.
