"I have not reviewed any of those books, any of those ideas. They don’t come up in my work as a judge, which I am, respectfully, here to address.” OH MY. YES. I will now live my life looking for any opportunities to deploy that phrase in my own life (though yes, not as a judge).

The display by these Republicans is totally disgusting.

There isn't a chance in hell that she won't be confirmed, and her grace under pressure should only add to her stature. Yes, the rude and ignorant opposition is scoring points with their minions - which gains them nothing since they're only preaching to their choir - but the points they may be losing with the traditional Republicans, independents, and fired up Dems are what actually could make a political difference. So thank you, Hawley, Cruz, Graham. and fellow demagogues! The more you folks shoot your half-cocked mouths off, the better it is for your opponents and the country.
