The lesson liberals learned from Clarence Thomas's success is to start attacking early when fewer people are paying attention. . . So she's getting the by-now-ritual Borking. Typical was her treatment by Illinois Democrat Richard Durbin, who suggested at a Judiciary hearing last week that Ms. Brown should be voted down because she hails from California. He noted the "oddity of President Bush going 3,000 miles away from Washington, D.C., to pick a judge for the D.C. Circuit."
Where do people get the idea that Durbin is a liberal. Durbin is a long-standing stooge of the Chicago Democratic machine, which always believed blacks could be around as long as they were the shoe-shine boys or the maids, unless they were as crooked as the white Democrats. Then they could be precinct captains, and do nothing at the DMV.
When Dick Durbin sees Brown, all he can see is an uppity black woman who doesn't know she is supposed to be either cleaning his oven or helping the local boys steal votes.

I lived in Chicago for eight years, and I'd be really interested in hearing you try to back those foul accusations up. I'll reserve the swear words and let you try.

Fascinating how you can see inside Dick Durbin's mind to tell us just what kind of racist he is. How about this: I can see inside your mind to see how you are projecting your own suppressed racism onto Durbin. An equally valid point.
WHERE'S THE EVIDENCE?
