Holy Crap, what was with Kennedy today
CNN analysits are blasting it, but it seems Kennedy sees something in the letters from Alito or something. do you guys think alito is tied to " the movement" with the Princeton alumni group.

1. He has called
for the committee to subpoena the records of that group to see whether Alito was a member. Spector was not pleased, and has moved on to Grassley, who is not kissing Alito's ass....

Hopefully Kennedy will back up his threat with some action.

4. Kennedy whipped Arlen good--that dustup WILL make the news
He wants the CAP records (People for the American Way want them too http://www.pfaw.org/pfaw/general/default.aspx?oid=20029 ) and what he did, with that fit of temper, is BRING THE ISSUE to the soporific idiots who do not pay attention. They won't watch politics unless it looks like Jerry Springer....that clip will make them sit up when they glance at the nightly news this evening.

Now people are gonna wanna know what the hell CAP is and why it matters. That is what Ted did.

What a guy!!!!!!!!!!

6. Also, Kennedy stated he sent a letter in December referring
to this, which Specter denies receiving. However, that certainly shut Specter up. Before Kennedy brought up that point, Specter was trying to make a big deal about how this was the first he had heard of the CAP issue. Kennedy busted his chops.

Way to go Teddy!

7. I missed it walking from the car
to the house! Arghhhh. Kennedy had been doing well and I was anxious to get inside and get it turned on and I missed it.

Good move Senator Kennedy.

11. How can Specter even look Kennedy in the face?
It was Specter who came up with the "Magic Bullet Theory" for the Warren Commisssion to explain the multiple wounds when JFK was assassinated.
This Texan will never forget . . .and never forgive.
