    As the Senate confirmation hearings for Supreme Court nominee Elena Kagan get underway, the Edward M. Kennedy Institute is partnering with the PBS NewsHour to provide video highlights of the nine most recent Senate confirmation hearings.
    Justice Sotomayor would be confirmed in August 2009 by a 68-31 Senate vote.

    Lindsey Graham was consistently one of the harshest questioners yet he voted for both Sotomayor and Kagan (one of the few Republicans to do so).

    I love how she keeps slowing her replies down, so the small minded panel members can follow more easily.

    I see how Graham tried to paint Sotomayor as angry but Comey-Barrett as "well behaved."

    LOL here we are years later and Lindsey is the one with the temperament at Judge Jackson's hearing. THE AUDACITY.

    So if all previous Supreme court justices were all women and then a man for the first time is confirmed who would be ignorant enough to suggest that the new male justice isn't going to see things from a new and fresh perspective? Not that the man's personal experiences are the only ones that count but he would most like see things a bit differently; not to say radically so but just differently. The bottom line is that she must be just, fair, and consistent and I'm confident that she will be. Now Kavanaugh went on a partisan rant, imagine if she had done that!

    The evaluation of Sotomayor's "temperament" is likely at LEAST partially driven by sexism. I wonder if the same behavior, questions, or "temperament" displayed by a man, would be considered "STRONG", "commanding", competent, etc., but from a woman, is seen as described by War Monger Lindsey Graham.
