On the opening day of the Senate Judiciary Committee’s Supreme Court confirmation hearings, Democrats seemed to want to avoid talking about nominee Amy Coney Barrett.
Evidently, polling showed Democrats that their scorched-earth tactics against Brett Kavanaugh backfired in the 2018 Senate races. And they got the memo that the attacks on Barrett’s religious beliefs that they deployed during her appellate court confirmation hearings were likely to go over about as well as a Yankees parade in South Boston. Furthermore, they cannot question the credentials of Barrett, who is widely respected by lawyers regardless of their ideology and earned the American Bar Association’s highest “well qualified” rating.

They had nothing to say about anything, but that never stopped a politician from flapping his gums. I turned it off after 45 minutes because all that hot air was fogging up my tv.

Leader McConnell, this hearing is a complete waste of time. Do the vote to confirm, please.

I actually wish the Dems would trash her. She'll be confirmed anyway, and last time they did that, the GOP picked up seats in the senate.

America is a 'Constitutional Republic' for as long as we can hold it.
How much longer can America survive as a 'Constitutional Republic' ?
Marxist Communist Globalists One World Government of Satanists are getting more traction in American and the worlds governments. Satanists named their religion 'humanism' to fool brainwashed Christians into being mentally and financially supportive of Satan's evil under the guise of tolerance for all that is evil in the hearts of all men and women from their youth.

Democrats always feel their 'job' is to be the center of attention. Like a toddler, they natter on about inane things when something shiny hasn't caught their attention. Tantrums are frequent.
In real toddlers this can be cute and it can be exhausting. In adults, its simply ugly.

What was with Klobutcher rambling on about how President Trump did not 'tell us' that the virus was airborne? Anybody knows that a virus that affects the respiratory system will be airborne as well as on surfaces. President Trump said it was like influenza - and got blasted for that - even tho' he was informing us of the similarities. Everybody knows that influenza is airborne.

The Kavanaugh hearings were nothing more than "showboating" by demonrat socialist candidates vying for media attention in their effort to become the socialist nominee, and there were all sorts of false charges made without regard to propriety.
When the fake Ballsy Ford, as Rush calls her, faltered, they created more and more fantastic rumors espoused as fact, to try to break Mr. Kavanaugh by making him look guilty for defending himself of false charges.
Eventually, NO WITNESS would prostitute and perjure themselves UNDER OATH to support the wild claims conjured up by Senator Di Fi of San Francisco.
The showboating continues talking about running down the President and his policies while politicking for Bite Me and Heels Up lala.
If all 22 Senators take the full half hour to question Judge Barrett, its going to be a long day. They have nothing, so its time to move on despite their 'feelings' of how things should be, they will find her competent.
If the American people will show up in massive landslide proportions at the ballot box in favor of President Trump and the down ballot republicans, even if they are RINOs, perhaps we can stop the race towards socialism a while longer.

At least the feckless Republican senators let Amy take off the cough burka she had to wear all day yesterday. Seeing a woman, forced to wear a black cough burka all day while the bloviators did not was a HUGE mistake by the GOP, who, as usual, walked right into the Marxist's trap. The optics lost votes for the Republicans yesterday. It didn't matter what was bloviated. The hypocrisy was the only thing anyone will ever remember. Yet, another Penn and Teller clear cups and balls magic trick that ends with the big ball easily seen in the middle cup. The Republicans pick the clear empty cup on the right as the cup containing the ball every. single. time.

For the life of me I don't understand why Mitch and Lindsay want to have so much time for "questioning" the nominee. Nobody's mind is going to be changed. The only result is going to be unnecessary abuse of Judge Barrett and torture of her family. It's ridiculous.
This is a watershed moment for our nation, and the demonrats know it. The perpetually bloviating gasbags in the Sen(ile)it will be unhinged and vicious. It will be too painful for me to watch, so I'll just take the time to be praying for Judge Barrett, her family, and for this nation.
Steady as she goes...

Democrats have seen the hand writing on the wall. They Know that Barrett will be confirmed, so they have decided to make the hearings about the Presidential election. They are bringing out the democrat boogymen, to scare LoFos, and rehashing democrat talking points.
It's not even fun to watch any more.

They give the democrats free microphone time with a potential nationwide audience and then wonder why they want to talk about the contents of Aunt Daisy's kitchen cupboard?
Some of Mark Twain's best and funniest quotes are about Congress and there is a reason for that.

They all have to get their 10 or 20 minutes of 'face time' to prove their 'relevancy' to the jelly brained liberals who continue to vote for them...methinks Grassley should just bring it to a vote and get it done...without all the 'grandstanding' but democraps...time to STOP screwing around...

I am glad the Democrats are blabbing, and I am hoping people are listening to their lies. Right now Ted Cruz is setting the record straight on how close the votes have been on the first and second amendments.
