Windbag Hearings and Alito’s Self Control

Posted by Eric at 2:01 pm. Filed under: Courts / Legal, Samuel A. Alito

ABP has a great analysis of each Senator’s bloviations at the Alito hearings.

Democrats
Joe Biden 78-22% (DE) (3,673 - 1,013) (a 1,879 word, and 13 minute opening “question”)
Chuck Schumer (NY) 75-25% (3,555-1,165)
Ted Kennedy (MA) 69-31% (3,439-1,539)
Pat Leahy (VT) 60-40% (2,714-1,874)
Russ Feingold (WI) 56-44% (2,976-2,364)
Diane Feinstein (CA) 42-58% (1,912-2,593)
Herb Kohl (WI) 37-63% (1,835-3,094)

Republicans
Mike DeWine (OH) 72-28% (3,398-1,323) (Corrected from 82%-18%)
Lindsey Graham (SC) 65-35% (3,032-1,643)
Jeff Sessions (AL) 61-39% (2,827-1,773)
John Cornyn (TX) 56-44% (3,407-1,900)
Jon Kyl (AZ) 53-47% (2,594-2,255)
Orrin Hatch (UT) 54-46% (2,686-2,242)
Chuck Grassley (IA) 51-49% (2,305-2,183)
Arlen Specter (PA) 50-50% (2,232-2,194)

Wow.

And the fact that Alito kept his cool during Ted Kennedy’s questioning today says a whole lot about his personal restraint. Alito emphatically denies any sympathy for any of the radical views expressed on the CAP magazine, he says he does not recall reading any of the articles that Kennedy quoted from, and now Kennedy wants to subpoena the records of CAP from that time. Incredible.
