Sometimes, NewsMax just tries too hard to find a reason to insult a Democrat.
Take Senator Dianne Feinstein of California, for instance. She’s fairly conservative as a Democrat goes, but they even try to take her down… with this?
Feinstein told those gathered to hear her at a meeting of the L.A. County Bar Association that in her opinion the person chosen to replace Sandra Day O’Connor should be “balanced and fair,” and not come from either extreme. She then proceeded to give a history lesson to those gathered, adding that the U.S. Constitution is “very specific in laying out how a Supreme Court nominee is chosen.”
She said, rather forcefully, “Pursuant to the Advice and Consent clause, the president proposes, and the Senate disposes.”
Does that mean she is predisposed to dispose of John Roberts?
Oh, for Webster’s Sake! The American Heritage Dictionary’s principal definitions of “dispose” are:
“1. To place or set in a particular order; arrange.
2. To put (business affairs, for example) into correct, definitive, or conclusive form.
3. To put into a willing or receptive frame of mind; incline.
4. To settle or decide a matter.”
They really shouldn’t try so hard. It just hurts to watch.
