2. He was able to avoid being sworn in
No oath for Gonazales, so he could say whatever the fuck he wants to, without being held accountable.

6. A repeat of the Alito hearing.
Same old same old. Pukes spew party spin. Dems working their asses off to get AG to answer questions.

7. To quote Biden "This reminds a little of the supreme court nominations"

referring to the non-answers and "I don't recalls"

The vote we be along party lines - nothing will happen.

10. Song, soft shoe...
Some dems pretty pissed, nearly yelling at him, others coming perilously close to calling him an out and out liar.
Rethugs keep trying to rehabilitate him, leading the witness, defending him and the illegal program. We have to absolutely dump all over our senators, letting them know, even if they are creeps, that we are totally scared and angry. Scared of the fascists, not binLaden.

13. A lot like the Alito hearings
Although, I must admit that a few repugs have a problem with this.
