Friday, 90-year-old Dianne Feinstein passed away -- after many, many years of damage.
Isaiah frequently noted her in his THE WORLD TODAY JUST NUTS comics. Here's "Avenatti."
"Destroying The Privacy Wall."
"Feinstein questions at the NSA hearings."
"Alito does his business on the Senate Dems."
"Pride of the Boomers, Pride of the Senate"
"DiFi Ethics."
This is Rebecca's 'alito hearings: like really bad sex' which posted January 12, 2006:
no climax. if the alito hearings had been a lover, you'd have been smart to kick it out of bed.
this is the oppostion party? this is how they do the brave stands?
i'm not talking about a filbuster. 1 of the nelsons brothers (that's how i see the 2 senators named nelson, they're like the really bad pop band of the 80s) has already given indications that he's willing to vote for alito.
so i'm not talking about that. i'm talking about asking tough questions and then asking follow ups. too often i felt like i was watching toy poodles who'd been housebroken long ago.
they'd bark a little at you while you were sitting on the couch but if you stood, they'd whimper and run out of the room.
that's not an opposition party.
it's sad that the democrats think that makes 1.
when alito kept fudging and refusing to answer, they should have treated him like a hostile witness. by the last day, every 1 of them should have used their time to hit on the same issues.
over and over.
diane feinstein, to name 1 of the worst offenders, could shoot scattershot (although she acted as though she were tossing out lillies throughout the hearings) in the other days but on the final day, she didn't need to be bringing up new issues. this is where you make the case to the people.
not where you suddenly introduce a new topic.
and for some 1 who interrupted ted kennedy repeatedly the day prior as he asked about caps, wasn't it strange that she didn't have a question on that? when kennedy was speaking yesterday, she couldn't stop interrupting. today? she's moved on.
miss diane gets my vote for most useless and i'm not fan of kohl. but miss diane was supposed to be fighting for women and instead we got a timid school marm trying to get the rowdy class to like her.
it's not just her. that's a point c.i. made tonight in the roundtable. c.i. pointed out that arlen specter couldn't stop treating her like she was a 'special' and not a real senator. he referred to her 'dramatic entrance.' there was another specific example c.i. brought up but i'm forgetting it now. but the point is, she is treated that way by others on the committee.
as an adult, she should ask them to cut it out. instead she seems tickled by the patronizing attitude.
i'm looking for the non-action figure miss diane. she comes non-fully poseable. she's in a seated postion. you can extend her legs or bend them depending upon whether you want her to sit in a chair or to sit on the floor. she wears a lovely dress with several layers. she comes with white gloves and the cutest little purse that matches her hat, her belt and her shoes. the non-action figure has a silly grin pasted on its face and is called 'miss diane, girl senator.'
the tea set is purchased separately.
And, finally, this is Betty's "DiFi dies:"
Mandatory retirement age for Congress immediately. If you missed the news, useless, elderly Dianne Feinstein died:
California Senator Dianne Feinstein has died, sources tell Fox News. She was 90.
The longtime senator had suffered from extensive health issues for more than a year, leading many to wonder about her fitness for office. Her cause of death was unclear as of Friday morning.
Feinstein was present in the Senate on Wednesday and cast a vote at 11:45 a.m. ET, according to the congressional record.
She
was 90 years old and her ass should have been gone long ago. Blame
liars like that John McCain supporter Amy Suskind who butted into
California elections from the east coast when we were trying to get
Dianne out. Amy, an idiot, lied that if we didn't support Dianne her
Democratic challenger would go up against a Republican and, being new,
might lose.
No.
Know the state laws before you weigh in on an election -- especially if it's not your state.
She wasted everyone's time.
She was incompetent.
And she voted for the Iraq War, let's not forget.
She used her life to kill over a million Iraqis.
That's how she should be remembered.
When
Ted Kennedy was making a point at the Senate confirmation hearing on
Samuel Alito, Dianne was interrupting and defocusing him.
That's how she should be remembered.
When
Brett Kavanaugh was nominated for the Court, Dianne was part of group
that looked shady and helped, in the end, get Kavanaugh confirmed
because they looked to be pulling tricks behind the scenes. She was
incompetent and she needs to have part of the blame for DODD and for ROE
being overturned.
And elderly idiot who should have left the Senate two terms ago.
Let's not hear how great she was because she was lousy and her ineptitude did real damage to our country.
Enjoy, hell, Dianne, enjoy hell.
