The real challenge tomorrow , the Democrat october Surpise will be when they wheel out Chris Chevrolet ( same unit as Chris Ballsy Ford , with a pasted on beard) – with tremulous voice accuse the judge of egregious behaviour in junior-high – sometime in the 1970s , or 1980s , causing irreparable emotional damage causing him to install 3 doors on his house last month – with the help of his Beach Friends.
They will find some male clerk to say she talked dirty in the office..
Or one of her male students at the college will come forward.
Love the look on ACB face.
The senator is trying to read with difficulty the talking points assembled by staff. Democrats on the committee have shown themselves to be a pack of hyenas. Vicious without much intellect.
“Vicious without much intellect” = Rabid.
Is Harris doing a commercial or being a participant at this hearing? She’s abhorrent!
And Democrats continue to spend their time (three plus years) to resist the peaceful transfer of power!
I have only listened periodically, yet there are some points:
Amy Barrett has a brilliant mind. Beyond that, she has a QUICK mind.
There are many who are brilliant, there are far fewer who are brilliant and also QUICK.
And, there is a distinction — a slow-prodding to brilliancy, as opposed to an immediate “its just there” brilliancy.
Amy Barrett has the latter.
My two cents, worthless though they are.
Corey Booker is tiring in his ‘breathlessness’, and Mazie Hirono is tiring in her droning.
And, now onto Kamala, who is the whole package — nasty, droning, annoying — condescending!
Please include a “I have a very deep rudder” component in your analysis of Barrett’s brilliant inteiiectual display.
Kamala using her time to ‘talk to the American people’ as in give a campaign speech. Lindsey needs to stop this!
No teleprompter today thanks to Sundances sunlight, just notes. ACB, no notes!
You do have a point, though Harris is unable to draw any sort of attention as she campaigns. She is utterly unlikable and wholly forgetable. Let her waste her time.
Already back on! Thought this was a dinner break ? Guess with Harris next up people didn’t want to lose their dinners so kept short.
Lol
Kamala – PEOPLE WILL CHEER IF THE DAMN ACA IS GONE!
Trump will give us better choice!
Harris basically says everything rests of the “Outcome of this hearing”. That’s rich, Kamala can’t even bother to walk down the hall to sit in the room…
lol! ?
Remote video is not flattering to Harris…nasally voice, bleached out skin with echo and jumbled video at times is not a pretty combo ?
You forgot the elongated and HUGE nose – I think…
Now be nice ?
Patriot, Sorry, I am a woman and find her condescending nature abhorrent. In addition, all I see is that NOSE. Forgive me, I am human.
I forgive you. She looks like a dogface pony soldiers to me, too.
Me, too. 🙂
That is a slur against all dog-faced pony soldiers! 🙂
ACB has given an almost perfect performance. Grace and civility and brilliance in her answers of question after question is wonderful to see. It was pure genius for PDT to have selected her. The Democrats behavior, in spite of trying to be civil, are so lacking in their attempts to denigrate and diminish her.
Harris makes me want to gag.
Harris makes me gag and I don’t want to!
I DID gag.
Kamala’s questioning just went off the rails.
The judge didn’t follow Kamala’s script.
Too funny.
At some point in our struggle it will have to be made clear that in “a woman’s right to chose” she has no inherent right to chose over “TWO lives”.
Tired of this yammering about the Chi-Na virus affecting “people of color, Pacific Islanders, yada yada” disproportionately
You seen “people of color”? (the womens, specifically)
You seen “Pacific Islanders”?
They fat
They stage 2 diabetes
here’s one Pacific Islander – no, they not all like that but – as they say in Hawaii:
“Get plenty”
type 2 diabetes
Great call.
I loved this guy. He sang the sweetest version of “Somewhere Over the Rainbow” ever. But unfortunately, IZ is now WAZ.
Absolutely, Iz was a great human being, and you’re right, that song is astonishingly… well, just about perfect, FAR beyond the original.
Hey, Heels UP, Ruth Bader Ginsberg never was God.
Kamala (the horrible) is giving ACB a ‘you are a hostile witness treatment’, lecturing her on DEMS ethic values and trying to get ACB to commit to endorse these ethic values, which of course are abortion, government control over our healthcare according to their preferences. What an evil human being.
Reproductive health care? American women have plenty of choices for reproductive health care. Abortions are not “reproductive health care”.
Noooooo
I agree with you. Obanacare is not about care, it is about insurance. Care under ACA aka socialized medicine will suffer immensely and be dismal for everybody.
She was horrid between her stuttering, lack of focus, abysmal performance. Sorry. Rewatch and critically assess. End of day… needed to get to the elbow room?
Senator Blackburn usually delivers, yet today she was ‘the weakest link’ for GOP… hmmmm.
Dissed her so much she barely asked her a question.
is there a question in there?
no
Dems just want to lecture and pontificate
Ah! So that’s that they’ve been up to.
I’ve been here all day and couldn’t figure it out.
aw, ya got me, All
I ain’t been watchin it all day, only tuned in when Maizie was on
and bloviate
Ruth Bader Ginsburg is dead. Her ‘legacy’ was her responsibilty. She chose not to consider her ‘legacy’ when she stayed on the Supreme Court instead of retiring. ?
Reminds me of a certain candidate for president, being kept alive as long as possible, though in Ginsberg’s case, she died too soon.
“She chose not to consider her ‘legacy’ when she stayed on …”
Yep
Now Ruthie’s legacy is PresTrump’s legacy
She done gibbed her legacy away
Generous of her
John Kennedy is a breath of fresh air.
I know Kennedy is an ally and he means well, but his antics and method of questioning are not really helpful. The guy seems to be always auditioning for a late night comedy show.
Barrett seems to be enjoying it.
True. I think everybody is just tired and wants to go home. God bless her for her stamina….both mental and physical. Note that most of the Senators can come and go as they please, but Judge Barrett has to just sit there and take it.
The first thing to do when overhauling the healthcare system is to stop using weasel words. What people want is not “insurance”. If you need your furnace, electric wiring and plumbing replaced (“pre-existing condittions)- your home insurance is not designed to pay for that.
What people are asking for is a Subsidy, not insurance. People can vote for various proposals on how much the govt can spend to pay for healthcare ( not insurance).
I was looking up abortion stats: the US aborts approx 1 million per year, twice as many babies as India , with 1/4 the population. ie. the abortion rate is about 8 times as high as India. People need to start asking why? ( Hint- Look at the origins of Planned Parenthood ). Rather than endless debates about the legal fine points.
All these types of debates should start with some basic numbers. For example as far as police killings of un-armed black men – that number is 8 in the past year. Down from about 20 in the Obama years. Thats 8 people. Then lets look at each of those 8 cases , 5 minutes discussion of each case.
In like manner, the number of pregnancy is leaving from rape, incest, or that in danger of the life of a mother figure to be in extremely small percentage of the overall abortions. It certainly appears to be a number that should require no part of government subsidy.
Involving
I fell behind on the video, had to take a call, and missed the last several minutes of Harris,
I played it at 1,75 speed to catch up, and she still didn’t make sense.
Senator Blackburn is FCKING UP — talking about women on the right in the context of the JUDGE.
just move your personal complaints on. get this win and MOVE on.
the news will use your words of the JUDGE IS A POLITCAL RIGHT woman to get the loser left out to vote (if they don’t they are stupid)
Exactly. They need to stick with originalist and textualist.
It just another example of how the Dems always appear to prepare and coordinate their attacks at committee hearings, while the Republicans always seem to each go it alone.
Senator Blackburn was a wreck between her data statement error, lack of focus, and overall abysmal performance. Much grief. Please rewatch and critically assess, then correct me if wrong. She made some good points was, again, a wreck.
End of day for a senator… needed to get to the elbow room? SHE NEEDS to rewatch the travesty in motion.
Senator Blackburn usually delivers, yet today she was ‘the weakest link’ for GOP… hmmmm, horrid.
But we continue to carry the goal despite such days. >shucks<
ACB seems to be talking a lot about recusal. Is she placating or is she feeling the need to recuse. She’s scaring me.
I watched all day, that did not come across one bit other than what theme the dems were trying to push but Justice Barret shut them all down.
To quote a prior Rep Senator from earlier:
Were Justices Kagan and Sotomayor asked to recuse from Obamacare decisions because they were nominated by Obama?
Was Justice Ginsberg or Breyer, Clinton’s choices asked to recuse themselves from the Paula Jones case?
That would be a big NO.
Looks like a scene out of ‘A Beautiful Mind’. Hahahahah. Another whack job.
ACB has Trump-like level of energy and attention span.
Didn’t blink once, never skipped a beat.
Never got tired.
Without notes.
Genius.
Can we please lose the masks already?
It is not human.
Has Lindsey finally called it a day…tonight?
Senator Blackburn did an amazing closure for the day. Made mention of the liberal attack machine and then proceeded to educate people on the 4th amendment. Following crazy maize, luny harris, and the rest, she was definitely a breath of fresh air.
watching Tucker Carlson
he played an excerpt of Maizie questioning whether Barret had ever made an inappropriate advance on someone in a workplace or had ever been party to a “settlement” over such behavior
Barret answered “No”, of course
But that may be a tip off that Dems are gonna pull out a sideshow of that nature, that they’re gonna try to Blasey-Ford her
just sayin’, I’m not a true believer or anything
Wouldn;t shock me although it would be incredibly stupid on thier
part they partly lost the senate because of this nonsence with Kavanaugh.
But I can see some Male clerk coming forward or some male student from
her teaching days at Notre Dame.
This is delicious.
How the very existence of a competent woman raising seven kids with her husband because she chose to must enrage Kamala.
Some days are diamonds.
PROJECTION … The act of falsely accusing your political enemies of doing or having done what you in fact are doing or have done. The accusation takes place early on as soon as the Left becomes aware that what they have maliciously and wringfully done (or doing) is about to be discovered by the populace. To pre-empt the political fallout which would rightfully arrive at their doorstep, they use Projection to muddy the waters giving them what they see as defensive talking points in the MSM which would bring undeserved recuse on their enemies, or at the very least lessen the fallout be falling themselves.
On Monday’s Daily thread at 9:17 am., I posted a comment going into further detail on how the Democrats use this technique and how their usage of this strategy is becoming more prevalent as of late so that more and more people do see just how they employ the technique. I provide a few examples as well giving source references also. Please feel free to go there if you have an interest in learning more about this subject. I do feel it’s important for us all to be aware of this matter.
I’m not the only one who is becoming more aware of this. See https://www.foxnews.com/opinion/amy-coney-barrett-judicial-philosophy-democrats-curt-levey Notice the subtitle to the article. It reads: “In questioning [ACB], Democrats are suffering from a classic case of PROJECTION (Emphasis added)”. Curt Levy makes a stark and all too clear case of just how the Democrats are PROJECTING on ACB, and in so doing, are showing us just how devious they, (not she) really are.
If you’re not already aware, please acquaint yourself with this strategy. It’s the Democrats who almost exclusively practice this evil art, not the Republicans.
Post script comment. Concerning another matter related to the confirmation hearing, Mr Levy’s article fails to mention the one fact which would uncover the 500 pound gorilla in the room and that is this – No mention of the concern made back in 1960 concerning JFK being a Catholic and the final realization that he could become President back then. But ACB can’t be in SCOTUS? More discussion re this point needs to take place NOW. Maybe it’s a case of too many Democrats not remembering this. Maybe they never knew of this (not likely). Maybe too young? (Also not likely, they are mostly old Coots). Most likely is selectively and conveniently not remembering. In any case, the ‘Pubs should be calling them out on that. (Can you hear me now, Ted Cruz?)
God Bless our Great Nation and God Speed.
Regardless of how good ACB was today, does anyone think any of these progs on the committee would vote for her? Any in the full Senate other than Mancin?
Day 3 Here we go!
Same format as yesterday just 20 min Q & A rounds.
Side note from yesterday, funny how Harris doesn’t want to be in such a large room under Covid Guidelines with masks, 6+ feet away, etc but when she leaves her office she has no hesitation to jam herself into a small elevator surrounded by multiple individuals.
Leahy playing the statistic game via remote:
“Do you know how many xyz” and throwing up pictures via fist that are not straight are clearly visible ?
His voice is as grating as Harris.
ACB is doing great again today. She just took Durbin to the woodshed. Bravo!
