1. Wow,I can't believe this, Ted Olson,just expressed my thoughts

Exactly, succinctly, and in a very logical order. We should get him as a witness

[MagickMuffin]

2. I have to side with Ted Olson on this one, glad he came around

Not so much in 2000, but they knew how to manipulate the Constitution to their advantage and get away with it.

3. Did he ever introduce his wife, Barbara, to the new...

... QAnon reps who think the Pentagon wasn't hit by a plane?

4. Off topic

What was on his nose?

On topic ... I never thought I would ever agree with Ted Olson.

10. Ted what's that on your nose?

At first I thought it was just light glare but as I watched it again it appears to be a white circle stuck on his nose. I noticed the "circle" projected a shadow. Very strange

11. Thank you

Was beginning to think I was seeing things

13. I think it's just a not-flesh-colored Band-Aid. :-)

5. He makes an excellent argument.

Also, bear in mind that he was one of the lawyers who successfully argued for the constitutionality of same-sex marriage in the Supreme Court.

6. Wow. Definitely worth a watch. K&R

[leftieNanner]

7. He has said that his checkbook is closed

For the current crop of Republicans.

Hit them in their wallets. Money is the only thing they understand.

9. Wow. What a contrast.

Some of his earlier words and deed would NOT lead you to believe that he'd be saying and doing as he now is. When people seem to be acting so out of character, it's hard for me to assign motive....or sincerity.

12. I don't think its possible to explain it any better.

Impressive. I don't care who you are.

15. Ted Olson appears to be an example of what ulta-conservatism resists.

Growth with age. Non political. "Facts m'am, just the facts".

Anybody watch that video explaining why Kavanaugh was chosen? I'm super curious, but kinda dread the reason.
