Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-AL), who has been searching for excuses to vote against Judge Sonia Sotomayor, said on CNN today that Sotomayor’s testimony was “muddled” and lacked clarity. “I do think Roberts and Alito are far superior in terms of answering questions crisply and with clarity and having very little inconsistencies in what they said,” Sessions claimed.

2. To hear the MSM tell it
Sessions and Graham are the only two Senators who have any input in the confirmation process.

5. See, I understand Roberts and Alito and I don't understand women
especially latino women so right there it's obvious white men are superior. Need I say more?

6. White Like Me.
