Meltodown! Come on!~!!
How many can the phrase “That being said” be said by one man in a ten minute period?
Lindsey Graham has lost his damn mind…
Lots of wankers out there, making asses of themselves. Lindsay Graham just surprised everyone by saying “Unless there is a complete meltdown, you’re gonna be confirmed.” Let’s confirm now and move on to more important issues.
Bah, why bother? It’ll only get interesting if she starts swearing at them in Spanish or dancing salsa. To demonstrate her judicial ethnics, you know.
That senate porn cam is a security measure implemented by Jefferson Beauregard Sessions III so he can go over the tape and make sure Maria the help didn’t take anything from the Senate floor on her way out.
How many mint juleps did Lindsey down this morning? No wonder he’s so bitter this morning. “We lost and that ought to matter.” IT OUGHT TO DAMMIT! BECAUSE LOSERS ARE WINNERS.
Carrie_Okie: only if she comes out with her wife
Jeff Sessions is a sawed-off piece of bitter.
Is Lindsey Graham’s voice not the most annoying EVER?!?
He keeps referring to Obama’s win, sort of like the line “for Brutus is an honorable man”. he is trying say Obama didn’t really win??
I clicked on the linky but all I see is some old queen with a bad haircut and too much Byylcreem talking about how scary the browns are, except when they’re named Jesus or Pablo and have his cock in their mouth.
Lindsay Graham may be under the influence, as he quotes Barack Obama. On the other hand, he may be just elated because of what Sotomayor’s appointment may mean for gay rights.
They already had a shouter kicked out.
msmoneypenny: Quitters are fighters. Also.
I missed the start. Did Franken show up in an evil clown outfit or just and adult diaper?
Lindsey’s cock was made for sploogin’
And that’s just what it’ll do
One of these days his cock is gonna splooge all over you
Jeff Sessions brings teh bat-shit crazy almost as well as Mrs. Palin.
10 Min recess! Margaritas anyone??
WIDTAP: Oh, he’s wearing a suit. He wants the Puerto Rican themed scrote pasty to be a special surprise for later.
hobospacejunkie: if you were paying attention, you would have heard Lindsey say he already shot his load for McCain (or was it all over McCain)
Puerto Ricans are teh most liberal ever!
Meltdown? I got yer Meltdown right here.
And yes, one of them is a boy. That’s the kind of world we’ll have if Sotomayor is confirmed.
azw88: 10 minutes? Just enough time for Lindsey & Beauregard to play fiddle-faddle in the ladies room.
Please check out my live-blogging of my non-watching of a bunch of long-winded blowhards deliver dreadful crap-speeches at bowlofdicks.org
hobospacejunkie: In reality, this whole hearing is just one big splooge-fest. The Dems are sploogin over the fact that they get some more brownie points with the Latino crowd by supporting the “wise Latina” and finally get to appoint someone to the court under Obama, and the Repubs are sploogin all over the latina so they can go back home and brag about how they they stood up to the racist activist pseudo-mexican! (that and they don’t have any pages handy to splooge all over.
haha, Jeff Sessions. haha. craka.

Cherry Garcia: Is it must me, or do you want to stomp right through that teevee screen and bitch-slap LInsday (what a gay name) Graham and bark, “Be a man, you pussy, and come out of that fucking closet!”
Another brilliant Lindsay Graham (R–Closet) retort: We like mexcuns, just not you. If you were Erik Estrada, we would totally vote for you. But the Democrat senate won’t let us appoint washed-up teevee stars.
He should completely win over they Mexican vote for Republic Party.
Ugh! Cornyn, flanked by the odious Lindsay and Tom. MUTE.
I read that there about about 8 protestors outside the hearing. I’m thinking Coulter, Buchanan, Hannity,and Palin with 3 kids and the grandkid
Confederate General J Beauregard “Jeff” Sessions III is saying smart-alec stuff even as I type this.
Because Scalia is like, soooo modest, y’all.
Still recessing. Hopefully back to hovels where they can’t bloviate about how awesome it is that they are senators.
I mean, seriously. Opening remarks that last longer than ten seconds. What more do you need to say than “let’s do this”? Then they need a 10 minute break to recover from this goddamned circle-jerk.
NOOOOOOOOO!!!!!! Not Spooky Dr. Tom. He’s beyond douchedom, he’s a total freak. NOOOOO!!!!!!
Coburn is seeing cracks!!
“we want the system to be predictable” meaning, all of those fuckin rulings givin rights to wimins, neegras, and messicans were just to unpredictable!!
finallyhappy: it can’t be Trig that’s with her protesting…. them’s kind only count as half a person…
FUCK, repeating something that was already said. (the oath)
Yeah, FUCK international law, I mean Regan and Bush said FUCK YOU to it, so just FUCK IT!
DustBowlBlues: Jesus christ, what in hell did your state spawn? What the fuck is he talking about? And why is he allowed to speak? 60 votes means republicans no longer get to talk about anything ever. I am not impressed with this bad hair day’s supposed learning, because he is not saying anything impressive. Eat a big bag of dicks, bad hair day guy. Eat a big fuckin’ bag of dicks.
“Most of our judges know what it is like to be old”
No fucking shit, some are older that dirt!!!
Mahousu:norbizness: i wanted that url.
HA ha ha, Tom Coburn is quoting Aristotle. HA ha ha, oh jesus. Doctor patient privilege, Dr. OB/GYN, between you and your male patients. Be sure to check with your Family supervisor before masturbating or masticating.
What miserable drones and traitors have I nourished and brought up in my household, who let their lord be treated with such shameful contempt by a low-born Oklahoma senator, vagina doctor and weird, secretive religious sect member?
Coburn ended his remarks with “God bless you.” He was acting as an ordained minister, so these remarks will be stricken from the record, since they are protected by the religious confidentiality privilege. Now he will inspect her ladyparts as cheif OB/GYN of the Judiciary Committee.
LUNCH BREAK! Tacos anyone??
hobospacejunkie: “Jesus christ, what in hell did your state spawn?’
Blame Jeebus! And illiteracy. You have no idea how often my friend and i went door-to-door for Dr. Stangelove’s Democratic opponent, Brad Carson, and were told “My preacher said to vote for the Repubigays. Though that’s not what called them.
In their own way, Southern Baptists and Pentecostals are as freakily cultish as my freaky 16 year old Jehovah Witness grandson.
All that stood out for me was one southern Senator pronouncing “innate” as “eye-nate.” I think he may have over-folksed it.
Mahousu: WTF?? What in hell was that???
DustBowlBlues: “My preacher said to vote for the Repubigays.”
Wow. That’s so wrong I don’t even know where to begin. Anyone who does anything that serious because somebody, anybody, told them to do so…where the hell did common sense and thinking for yourself go? How about personal responsibility, being an informed member of one’s community? All abdicated when “I voted for him because my preacher told me to.” Wow. Oklahoma: The Stepford State. Though I realize it’s hardly just Oklahoma and Texas has much to answer for.
bago: Some people will fight HARD for their right to quit.
Lindsey Graham is just upset that she refuse to fellate him like Roberts did.
TGY: Why do you think Obama had her leg broken?
From Jamison Foser at MediaMatters:
— During Alito’s confirmation hearings, Alito said explicitly that his Italian-American heritage comes into play during discrimination lawsuits:
“When I get a case about discrimination, I have to think about people in my own family who suffered discrimination because of their ethnic background or because of religion or because of gender. And I do take that into account.”
Hatch is blaming the fact he’s going to call Sotomayor a border-jumping reverse racist taco eater on Obama. It’s ALL OBAMA’S FAULT.
I am utterly amazed that someone as educated and intelligent as this woman can sit in front of these blowhards and just listen. I would lose it.
She’ll never be nominated unless she’s ‘quit’ every position she’s ever held
pondscum: I am thinking Percocet, double-dosage, was what the Wise Latina had for breakfast, with her morning coffee. Only way should could sit there without eventually yelling out, “You can’t be THAT fuckin stupid, can you!”
S.Luggo: S.Luggo ftw
azw88: That really should happen more often.
The yelling, not the Percocet.
Ok, the Percocet too.
S.Luggo: They also asked Alito whether he was wise (reminding him that he was under oath), to which he replied: “No. I’m dumb. Dumb as hell.”
proudgrampa: It’s about wanting to fly into the core of a nuclear reactor. If it helps, it was originally written for Vocaloid.
Please please please let the first senator to refer to Puerto Ricans as immigrants be a Republican.
