No she isn't. That title goes to Barrett.

Wrong. Barrett has consistently been polite, no matter how rude the questioner. Hirono is one of the rudest senators there. She loves the sound of her own voice but won’t allow Barrett to respond. Hirono loves to interrupt in her officious, condescending manner.

Except Barrett was extremely rude to Klobuchar. Interesting.

How so? Give specific examples.

Yes, the difference in demeanor when Barrett is addressing a Republican vs Dem Senator is very telling.

Hirono is just dumb.

Good for Ernst for calling out Hirono for her dismissal and interruption.

She has been a judge for 3 years. That is not long enough to be "well respected."

That is embarrassing.

And Kagan was NEVER a judge! Does that embarrass you too?

Ignorant comment. Kagan was Solicitor General, a position dubbed the "10th SC Justice" because the office is in the SC and so much time is spent arguing before the Court. She was Dean of Harvard Law and Professor before that, infinitely more impressive than Barrett with her thin resume and lack of an impressive publication record.

I tend to be more polite to people who let me finish my sentence rather than those who cut me off at every opportunity.

Unimpressed by the hearings and her resume. She answers hypotheticals from the Rs but not from the Ds. She is ignorant on current matters. She looks uncomfortable in her seat and knows very well she is not worthy of filling it. She is an above average law professor from a good law school, a dime a dozen. Fervently hope she does not get confirmed. She has a mean and stubborn streak which is extremely well hidden but will come out after a few years on the court.

I cringe every time she tries (and fails) to make a point, especially in her heavy-handed, arrogant way.

She is usually ruder to women, too. Hmmm.

Why do Democrats continue to ask her her opinion, knowing that as a sitting judge, she can’t provide it?? Oh wait, I know. So they can blab on about their issues. They know she can’t answer, but they like to make it appear that she *won’t* answer. Very manipulative.

Could that be because the women in question are usually rude to her FIRST? Get a clue.

Why does she respond to hypotheticals from Republican senators?

She's amazing. So much class.
