What does the fact that Specter is the chairman have to do with this? I haven't forgotten that fact, but it's irrelevent to the issue in question. Specter became very belligerent on the record that he had never received the letter from Kennedy. Kennedy has introduced evidence into the record that Specter in fact did receive the letter. Kennedy has a response to his letter from Specter's office. Specter has since admitted that he did receive the letter. As I said above, in this case (The Case of the Missing Letter ), Specter has been shown to be the idiot.

Okay I'll give you that point. I do have one question. Exactly what does this have to do with the Alito hearings? As far as I can tell, it has nothing to do with it. Which is what the original "idiot" comment was all about. As far as the hearings themselves are concerned......Kennedy is "still" an idiot!

Spector is only slightly less an idiot than Kennedy, I'm afraid. So I hardly see what debating the merits of an argument between two idiots over an irrelevant issue adds.

Kennedy has nothing so he's trying to invent some sort of "smoking gun" that he can wield. Won't work anyway, so let him make an even bigger fool of himself.

Those of us who live in PA, "know" that Spector is a RINO! Which accounts for how a "republican" keeps getting elected in a predominately a "blue" state.

You'r a good distance from being convincing.

True, but then one only has to listen to Teddy to be convinced.

Ummm....these events happened IN the Alito hearings.

That may well be. But that is "NOT" what the original "idiot" comment was about. Since you obviously have not followed the Alito hearings, "Hic" Kennedy made an idiot out of himself by his idiotic line of questioning and his even dumber responces to Judge Alito.

Any specifics, or just a general observation? Nothing too specific. I just heard him complaining about the "imperialist President", and the usual bs rhetoric from liberals.

Well, since Island Dog said it wasn't anything specific.

I haven't followed the hearings? Then how is it that you didn't even know what I was talking about when the whole debate between Specter and Kennedy happened in the hearing?

Just an FYI... I knew exactly what you were talking about. But Kennedy is "still" an idiot. And had you been following the hearings a little better you would have been able to figure out the "idiot" comment with out any help.

Okay I'll give you that point. I do have one question. Exactly what does this have to do with the Alito hearings?

Yes, it sounds like you knew exactly what I was talking about.

And had you been following the hearings a little better you would have been able to figure out the "idiot" comment with out any help.

Oh, trust me...I didn't need any help figuring out that Kennedy is in general, an idiot. If you go back and read very slowly......you will see that I was only referring to this one particular exchange between Specter and Kennedy.
