Rich Galen has a good column on the Judge Roberts hearings in the US Senate. It starts out as follows:
"The Senate Judiciary Committee began its hearing on the confirmation of
Judge John Roberts to be Chief Justice of the US Supreme Court on Monday.
Like so many other things in Washington, the word "hearing" in the US Senate
has absolutely nothing to do with the act of listening. It has everything to do
with talking"
(to read the entire column click on the heading above "There's No Hearing Here" above.)
