Just In: Senate Judiciary Panel Recommends Alito For Confirmation

Along party lines, 10-8.

Democrats are talking up a floor fight over the nomination, but Lindsey Graham, at least, seems in a feisty frame of mind:

Republicans on the committee accused Democrats of falsely portraying Alito as an extremist and of politicizing the nomination process in preparation for the next election. If this is what the Democrats want in the future, said Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.), "We'll clean their clock."

I give his statement a solid B+.

Related-- SCANDAL!!!! Justice Scalia dared to play tennis at a junket sponsored by the Federalist Society even as now-Chief Justice Roberts was being sworn in.

It's... it's... horrible! I'm not sure exactly how it's horrible, but I just know that it is!

IMPEACH BUSH!

Is there something inherently violent or domineering about clock cleaning? How did this phrase get its meaning?

I think a few points should be deducted for ambiguity, btw. Cheney's cock would have said it'd tear off their heads and piss down their necks.

It is a scandal.

WTF is he doing on something as pansy as _tennis_ when he could be on a hunting junket. !?!

Irony: The same democrats who whine that Republicans are a "Culture of Corruption" for accepting donations then voting the way the donors want... just voted party-line against Alito because their biggest donors told them to.

I've got to admire the way Democrats have perfected the technique of casting something in an evil light just by referencing it:

"Judge Alito, I'm sure you're an otherwise decent person, but according to reports, you have on more than one occasion complimented your Mother. Even as an adult, you continue to compliment your Mother. As a nominee for the highest court in the land, how do you justify this behavior?"

My favorite part of this morning's committee meeting? Had to be Dick Durbin's great big crocodile tears about how (and I'm paraphrasing) "this was supposed to be about Harriet Myers, but the right-wingers in the Republican party tore her to shreds," or some such bullshit.

Indeed, I wonder how much money got moved into TK's pocket when Moveon put their words in his mouth?

I'm glad that Graham seems to be a non-wussy GOP in the Senate. Why pretend the other side is playing by polite rules.

[A]n asshole is somebody who looks at a painting of two toddlers doing something totally normal for toddlers and decides that it represents homosexuality and then thinks that publicly saying that is somehow edgy and clever. Instead it is doing what we accuse the Left of, that is sexualizing young children. If that describes you, own it.

It's a heavily armored (the pilot sits in a titanim bathtub) slow-and-low loitering plane with a massive minigun firing depleted uranium rounds. The capability it brings is the ability to just fly big circles over the country waiting for a target to present itself. This is a weapons platform for eliminating vehicles and personnel. Its first task might be strafing the seas, clearing out any remaining attack boats and minelayers.
Update: My ballpark estimate for a reasonable cost for a wildlife overpass (suitably padded to sate the thirst of Democrat grifters) was $15 million. Turns out, that was a good estimate. That's how much it cost Denver to build one.

Some people liked Candace Owens because she was a black woman who told hard truths about BLM and black criminality. But this was always a grift. She started out as a race hustler for a grift, then hustled race the other way to grift conservatives, and now she's back to being a race-hustler for the left again. Specifically, she is now claiming that people pointing out that she is legitimately low-IQ and can't pronounce half the words her AI-generated teleprompter script points out to her is racist and just Ben Shapiro's way of saying the n-word without quite saying it. You see, you can only say that black people are smart, and if you see a dumb one that doesn't know how to pronounce simple words while she poses as an investigatory journalist, you have to pretend she's actually smart or you're a racist. Weird, that doesn't sound very conservative, let alone "#Based," to me. To prove how much she hates racism, she then says that Ben Shapiro's Jew ancestors were masters of the slave trade.

Ami Kozak: Every single Tucker Carlson episode consists of him claiming he didn't say the things he said in the last episode
Also: this is the manipulation Tucker does that i hate the most. It's so cowardly. All he does is smear people (and Jews, generally), and then claim "I have nothing against [the person or group I just smeared.]" He'll even claim "I love [x], actually." Just again and again and again. It's all a lie, of course. A year ago he smeared Jews but added how beautiful he thought Israel was, and then two weeks ago, he said Israel is ugly as dog-shit and nothing beautiful has been built there "since 1948."
Just got this email from Dracula: "I love Van Helsing, actually, he's one of my personal heroes, if I'm being honest. I will claw the heart out of his belly and bathe in his blood before the children of Babylon, but I have nothing but respect for Van Helsing, actually. Love is the answer. Except for the followers of the Christ whom I am commanded to turn into my dark army of Satan. And I totally don't worship Satan, I just think we should listen to both sides. Hugs and kisses, may Van Helsing burn in the blood-red fires of hell throughout eternity, even though I consider him a close and dear friend, Vlad called Dracul."
