Thank you Senator Biden for trying to pin down Squirmy Roberts!!!

I was hoping folks would turn on the live coverage of Sen. Biden holding JR's feet to the fire. Done now. Definitely check that out.

More, for anyone interested in coverage of the SCOTUS hearings:

Roberts avoids answering and practices talking without saying anything; then tags on "....my understanding of the Law."

Biden pounced: "That's what we're trying to understand here, Judge. Your understanding of the Law."

Told JR he's not giving the panel anything to base their understanding of his understanding ON.

"We're rolling the dice with you, Judge Roberts."

"It's funny, this Kabuki dance that we do here."

Thank you Senator Biden, for TRYING and for being forceful and gutsy about trying to get SOMETHING RESEMBLING AN ANSWER.

Now some other RWer is praising Roberts for not answering any questions.............

Note with Biden: Roberts is "smooth" and "confident" until he feels on the defensive-- his voice level goes higher, he turns condescending, with barely contained hostility a la Rumsfeld (why are these peons asking ME questions).

Biden got Roberts to show his true colors and revealed PHONINESS of the pose that he, and the Rong Wing, have taken on this hearing process.

"He may not be Mr. Right, but he is Mr. Right now."?

Must the Court bless smut and other such vices?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


May a President jail any and all in a crisis?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


Will the Court defer or will it despise us?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


Is privacy protected in all shapes and sizes?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


Are your views like Bob Bork’s or more like Brandeis’?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


Will you ever say anything at all to surprise us?

I can’t say much but: stare decisis!


Do you still favor term limits—a time when you’ll go??

No.

Turns our there is also a spoof: "Starry Decisis."

My blank faux pas was worth that scorn for your generous reply with this great wit.

I posted quick cuz the live testimony was hot and quick.

This appears to be a total farce of non-information-- the battle is between the enablers and the challengers.

Senator Biden was representing the nation as what some of us in the peanut gallery call "Real Human Being."

:-)

into the record.

Hearing recessed.

"Kabuki dance" being discussed on NPR.
