Senate Judiciary Chairman Arlen Specter, R-Pa., told Bush to shove it today. The president wanted to railroad his Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito through the confirmation process, not giving senators enough time to review his record. Bush doesn't seem to understand that reviewing a person's record is important if you don't want to end up with a Michael "Brownie" Brown type in a key position - like the Supreme Court.
"It couldn't be done, " Specter said of the White House's push for a confirmation vote by Christmas. "We have to do it right, we can't do it fast." The committee hearing will start Jan. 9, he said, with a targeted Senate confirmation vote on Jan. 20.
Meanwhile, Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., wins demagogue of the week. He suggested that Democrats can't do their job and review Alito's record, because it would ruin Christmas.
"Anybody who wants to blast this guy over the holiday season, before he's had a chance to speak, is going to come out bad in the public eye."
So, I guess legitimate criticism is off limits until Santa leaves. Thanks Lindsey, for protecting the sanctity of the Christmas spirit! The reindeer simply wouldn't be able to fly if we had an intelligent national debate about a judge with a lifetime appointment.
Let us hope Republicans will listen to Graham's snow job about the holidays and refrain from their usual smear campaigns, character assassinations and outright distortions. Now, that would be the perfect Christmas gift!
