Bush supporters' aftermath thread II

Well, consider the merciless berating of Judge Samuel Alito by Sen. Ted Kennedy and his Democratic colleagues on the Senate Judiciary Committee to the point of driving Mrs. Alito to leave the chambers in tears.

Tico and Foxfyre, read what he wrote.

Would someone, unlike you and I who saw the hearings, know that she left some twenty minutes after Kennedy was finished speaking? No. Are you sure that anything Kennedy, or any of the other "Democratic colleagues", had to say was the reason she left? (God, I am channeling one of the wingnuts here) or was she just exhausted by the long day and got weepy over the GOOD things Lindsey was saying about the man she's married to.

You don't know. But, what the hey, eat the spin.

Wow.

That is not what I said. This is your misdirection, in this case!! It is also a lie that I implied it!! I happened to look it up, before I said it. He is a hypocrit, which you can find it if you search it, not that your venal mind would allow it!!

Speaking to nobody in particular, I remember a wise person once advising me that only an idiot argues with an idiot. I frequently wish I took that to heart more.

... It has been widely reported by the mainstream press that she left the chamber in tears upset over the treatment her husband was taking. As none of them were giving Judge Alito any points as a good guy, I have no reason to disbelieve these reports.

Not entirely the case, Foxy. I recall some of the MSM reporting that she left the room during questioning from Lindsey Graham, unfairly intimating -- like Joe is -- that it was his questioning that caused her to leave the room. Those able to be honest with themselves understand Graham's comments were not the cause of her emotional build up, but it was instead the questioning of her husband by the likes of Kennedy and other Democrats. Graham merely provided the release.

Graham merely provided the release.

Ah, I understand now: I should gauge what you are saying not by what you type, but by what you are thinking.

Sometimes a cat just likes to play with a mouse, Foxy.

But then again I also remember a wise man saying: An eagle does not hunt flies.

He is leaning rather heavily on the symbology of classic American myth, isn't he. In this case, stolen from the prior inhabitants of the place, but what the heck, possession being nine tenths and all that.

How very therapeudic of him. Actually, I like Graham rather a lot. Of course, as we now know, his merciless comments made Ted Kennedy's wife leave the living room TV welling up in tears.

The point in question was valid. Why, after all, did Alito join that morally and politically repugnant group and then boast of his membership in his resume? His answers: "Gosh, I forget now" and "I was applying for a job with an administration which thought such ideas just peachy" are hardly satisfactory.

I love the "mercilessly berating" phrase. Let's sit it beside "mercifully torturing".

You are aware that the story Kennedy kept waving in his fat, little fingers was not a racist thing published by CAP, but instead a parady of a racist thing ..... right?

So if that was Joe's point--which he didn't make--then I will concede that possibilitiy. I won't concede that anything Graham said was what caused her to leave the chamber in tears, nor will I concede that the previous poster said that she left DURING Kennedy's questioning.
