Lindsey Graham is weak. He just praised Democrats for being "respectful" to Amy Coney Barrett during the hearing.

Mazie Hirono asked Barrett, in front of her children, if she has ever raped someone

Amy Coney Barrett is repeatedly recounting details of past cases and historical references off the top of her head - without notes - in response to long, scripted questions.

Barrett brings up Plessy!  WOOT !

Leahy is essentially arguing that the Plessy decision legalizing segregation should have never been overturned with Brown v. Board of Education.
If a political party does not have its foundation in the determination to advance a cause that is right and that is moral, then it is not a political party; it is merely a conspiracy to seize power.

Well Cornyn finally got to the point and did a fairly decent job highlighting a judges role.

And now Senator DICK Durbin, emphasis on DICK, trying to get his gotcha moment.

Durbin is a putz.  Barrett cites the 15th Amendment again and again, yet Durbin refuses to acknowledge it.

Barrett calls out Durbin for lying about what she wrote.  Durbin doubles down on the lie.

Barrett now getting feisty, telling Durbin that he is distorting her dissent on the Second Amendment and felons. She's reciting the historical background on the Fourteenth Amendment and state constitutions on felon voting.

Listening to Mike Lee and ACB discuss religious liberty, free exercise clause, establishment clause, and the ministerial exception. A good use of the senator's time.

Barrett is about to snap.  Her IQ is at risk by having to listen to this nonsense.

Barrett should ask Whitehouse what it was like clerking for a mysogynist like Richard Neely.

Ted Cruz nails the Democrats on Obamacare, calling it 'corporate welfare'.

Corporate insurance profits have doubled while annual premiums have increased on average $7,000.

Isn't Obamacare technically fascism? Privately owned producers that are government controlled.

Klobuchar up again reading questions that someone else wrote.  She exposed herself as a complete fool yesterday when she was unable to define the term 'superprecedent' which she used in her question.
