text: Not a troll except in your estimation - SAD.  
  
  Exactly what JCD said - ".....Joe Biden & Ted Kennedy who made these hearings the truly appalling events that they are."    Sorry, do not see the word *escalation* here - talk about alternative facts!!
  
  OTOH - I, at least, submitted documentation that gave actual FACTS - not a half-fact or opinion.  Nor did I say as you did - "...Republicans deserve all the blame"  - in fact, provided context, history, etc.  FACT - the first historical SCOTUS nominee ideological stuff began with Republicans.  Live with it!
  
  Ms. Monica - your problem is your inability to be questioned - SAD.  Your comment, typical though, is an ad hominem.  Which violates NCR policy and should be deleted.
