4. She makes her speech, then sets it up perfectly
with something like "Madame President, I'm going to sum up my speech that I've made this morning." Then she talks about the class reunion of '53 at Texas A&M (where Owens' dad went or something) and started talking about Korean vets and "when the class of '53 gets together again and remembers I hope (cue the tear-stained voice) that Priscella Owens will be on the ct of appeals."

GOD WHAT CRAP.

6. Has she ever cried about the soldiers who have died in Iraq?
Edited on Wed May-18-05 11:36 AM by barbaraann
Or about anyone other than a WEALTHY, WHITE, ELITE AMERICAN WHO IS A MEMBER OF "HER SOCIAL CIRCLE?"

I doubt it.

10. GMTA. I damned near vomited all over the screen.

What a smarmy, unctuous, vacuous, detestable, hypocritical piece of human shit she is!! Apparently we're supposed to regard Prick-silla Owens qualified by virtue of her father dying of polio when she was only 10 months old -- as though that's some kind of qualification for the Circuit Court of Appeals!! Unfuckingbelievable! Her mother apparently didn't find it too encumbering to marry a well-to-do rancher soon afterwards. Owens was what we'd call "advantaged"!

11. Repugs love these "pulled up by her boot straps" stories
because the vast majority of them think these stories are the rare exception instead of the norm for most Americans. The repugs are such a rich, white bread, exclusive bunch of country club thugs they do not realize that this judge's story is not so different from millions and millions of others. And the repugs who have pulled themselves up promptly forget their roots, the advantages of affirmative action, school loans, and all social programs that assisted in their climb. They have short memories and mean spirits - perfect in today's GOP.
