Oh, come off it.
It's just a picture of eyes, nothing more. Deeply disturbed, evil whitebread fanatofascist Rovian Chimpy McHitlerburton God-botherer eyes, true, but overall, not the least bit out of place in examining the facts surrounding the confirmation hearings.
I would like to add, however, that Roberts' reaction was probably triggered by seeing Senator Kennedy.
Posted by Terry Oglesby at September 13, 2005 03:04 PMI think he is channeling Bill Murray in the "Groundhog Day" waking up scenes or maybe he is just stunned that Schumer is able to get around by himself.
Posted by: Larry Anderson at September 13, 2005 03:17 PMI know you said it was a picture of the senior senator from Massachusetts, but Ack! give more warning before you link to something like that.
Posted by: Jordana at September 13, 2005 03:20 PMSorry--I didn't mean to scare anyone. But at least now when you see things like this, you can consider yourself already steeled for scenes of horror.

Incidentally, I heard Imus mention this AM that Chucky managed to work 49 separate references to himself into his 10 minute opening statement. I don't know if that's an accurate count, but it sounds low to me.
Anybody wanna trade senators?
Posted by: skinnydan at September 13, 2005 03:36 PMI don't know about your imagination, but I know he sure has in mine!
Eww. That was gross.
Anyway, I read the same thing about your lovely Senator--seems that count was prepared by the Washington Post, of all places, so I don't know whether to believe it, or perhaps double the number.
In any event, no, you can't have our senators. Although I will say that Jeff Sessions has a bit of the wild-eye himself, sometimes.
Posted by: Terry Oglesby at September 13, 2005 03:50 PMYou can't have my senators either. Even if one of them is actively trying to run for president already and is a big dork and the other one thought that his first name with a big exclamation point was a good bumper sticker for his presidential run and who has a wife named Honey -- I'll still take them over either of yours, Dan.
Posted by: Jordana at September 13, 2005 05:01 PMThis is what makes them so objectionable. They're like a communicable disease - darned easy to get, and absolutely impossible to get rid of.
Posted by: skinnydan at September 14, 2005 08:25 AMThat picture of Ted- is he sinking into the asphalt? Kinda looks like that to me.
