The Senate just confirmed Sonia Sotomayor by a 61 to 38 vote. The nine Republicans who voted for her were Lindsey Graham (S.C.), Lamar Alexander (Tenn.), Christoper Bond (Mo.), Susan Collins (Maine), Olympia Snowe (Maine), Judd Gregg (N.H.), Richard Lugar (Ind.), Mel Martinez (Fla.), and George Voinovich (Ohio).

I'm really disappointed that Lame-R Alexander was never President, because I often wondered what a full Gerald Ford term would have looked like.

I am a little confused! Did the squishy moderates of the GOP do a back-flip or a swan-dive into the political abyss.

Amazing! This legal lightweight racist got more votes than Samuel Alito! Truly pathetic sign for this country.

I do openly before G-d accuse the 68 who voted for confirmation of High Treason. No further discussion is required.
