anybody watching these? i'm shocked, even the republicans are asking really good questions. lindsay graham is grilling him on whether the "inherent authority" argument allows bush to torture in violation of statute. and feingold nailed gonzales on lying during his confirmation hearing. i haven't seen much discussion about the wiretapping on this board, waddaya think?

I think that I miss having C-SPAN, and I think that somebody better go to muthafuckin' jail over this. That said, it won't happen and everyone will forget about it in like a week when the new episode of Desperate Housewives comes on.

I caught Spector on Russert yesterday previewing the hearings. He seemed to be in a foul mood over the whole thing.

Thanks for the link Fu; XM Online doesnt have the news and sports stations for some reason.

I was about to say, Spector did seem like he was ready to hold someone accountable last night, and the Attorney General seems to be on his shit list.

he's not even sworn in. I've been drifting in and out of it, but I get the feeling that Chuck Schumer was dead right abuot these.

Schumer sounds like Elliot Gould, and Gonzales sounds like Damien Echols from that West Memphis murder case.

i was expecting this "implied powers" thing after the Alito hearings....They wanted Alito's take on it since they knew it was going to come up in relation to this.
