The democrats not only didn't stop Alito from getting confirmed, but they showed what losers they really are.

My husband is up for one of the most important gigs in the land, and it's important that these hearings vet him thoroughly." But noooooo! She's gotta play the petite flower and let these men defend her womanly honor! Sheesh, what a wimp! -Mr. and Mrs. Alito play the "overdue book" sex game. It's a biggie with librarians. -Ms. Bomgarder established a high-profile career as a librarian under her maiden name. Because the librarian field is high profile, she desired to retain her maiden name so as to keep her name recognition in the competive world of libraries.

So when Teddy Kennedy left the scene to formulate an alibi, that is equivalent to Laura Bush's car accident when she ran a stop sign. She was driving below the speed limit and she wasn't drunk. She was treated the hospital so that means she didn't flee the scene of the crime. <a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/mary-jo-kopechne" target="_blank">http://www.answers.com/topic/m ary-jo-kopechne</a> Lady in the Lake. <a href="http://www.answers.com/topic/lady-of-the-lake" target="_blank">http://www.answers.com/topic/l ady-of-the-lake</a>

Montgomery plays detective Philip Marlowe, a private eye who just wants to publish his own crime stories. Kingsby Publications editor Adrienne Fromsett (Audrey Totter) meets with Marlowe, but offers him a job as a detective instead of a writer. She wants him to find the missing wife of her boss, Mr. Kingsby (Leon Ames). (Adrienne wants them to proceed with their divorce so she can marry Kingsby herself.) Marlowe accepts the job and goes looking for clues at the home of the wife's sometime lover, Chris Lavery (Dick Simmons). When Marlowe gets knocked out and picked up for drunk driving, he decides to drop the case. He is drawn back in, however, when Adrienne suggests that Kingsby's wife is responsible for the murder of a mysterious lady in the lake. Lloyd Nolan and Tom Tully play two police detectives also on the case. Lady in the Lake is remembered as being filmed with a subjective camera -- almost entirely from Marlowe's point of view -- and subsequently hyped by an MGM ad campaign. ~ Andrea LeVasseur, All Movie Guide"

Sorry... just thought that was wierd how it came up in this thread... back to the topic.
Originally Posted By imadisneygal "Fact is, America is more conservative and they like this President." No, the fact is that slightly more than half of America is more conservative and even some of them don't like this president.
Originally Posted By TomSawyer I think the fact is that most Americans are moderate, and that in the last election cycle they voted for the known rather than the unknown.

The poor liberals will just loose their minds, I have never been so happy!
