lindsey graham needs to learn to ask better questions instead of act like the idiot he is

[ChickenAwesome]

How condescending of him. The accusations made against her were hazy and without specific examples. Her answers were clear and sensible. The only real reason she's being accused of being a "bully" is because she's a woman; if she were a man she would just be "powerful".

and pointless. these are lawyers' statements, not random comments pulled off the internet. i normally like stewart, but he didn't contribute anything to the argument.

[AtlasShruggery]

I think Linda Graham has a temperment problem. Graham looks like an old lesbian. Where's his girlfriend Bungler McCain?

[calimar28]

Scalia? Thats different, he's brilliant...plus he is Italian, and they have those loveable tempers. But Sotomayor is one of those latino people...always whining about equal rights with their hot tempers and budding in. I hate it when women have that overbearing attitude.

[TedinLasVegas]

Funny, "Ma'am" is good enough to refer to a female royalty but not good enough for a senator from California...

[ethiomate]

U guys should watch this clip on the daily show and jon stewarts response ... VERY FUNNY !!

[olejazzman]

And how who you describe the all white male committee? And how else would you explain an all white male committee acting as experts on discrimination and racial bias?

[UpstandingCitzen]

"old white males"

Nice job being a racist.

[olejazzman]

Isn't it amusing how a group of old, white males can agressively interrogate and challenge a minority on her racial attitudes? If racial discrimination was not the norm in this country, you would see more minorities and woman included in these hearings. Must have been discrimination somewhere along the line, and it surely was not something Sotomayor created.

Au contraire, it is Graham who is arrogant, incompetent, and stupid. She is keeping her cool while he is trying to ruffle her feathers. If a woman dares to criticize, then she has a temperament problem. No one says that Scalia has a temperament problem even though he scares everyone that goes before him!

[njcarlos1]

That was a great pseudo-intellectual retort, but really it just comes across as over compensating because you feel like a moron talking to... wait for it... YouTube commentors! Senator Graham will never read what you said, and thus you realize you are meaningless in the grand scheme of things, because you're too puss to voice your opinions directly. Don't get all butt hurt because I made you look like a fool over the internet. It's not a big deal... really.

Cheers douche :)
