Now Cornyn (R-TX), can’t believe campaign is still ongoing—jab at Dems on panel for “focusing on a handful of policy disagreements.” Cornyn shocked that this is how a confirmation hearing would work, like Sessions’ record as Alabama AG and voting history would really be an issue. So whatever Cornyn is going to ask is going to be bullshit. Starts with Mukasey with a supposed question asking for confirmation that being a law enforcement guy is different from being senator. Yes, says Mukasey. Yep, bullshit. Now to Canterbury: Sessions has done great stuff for cops, right? It’s really dangerous to be a cop, right? Particularly with all the mentally ill people. Tell us about that. (Note, Cornyn doesn’t really care about whether or not mentally ill people get the care they need to prevent them from being a public danger.) Canterbury: Yep. Cornyn: Sessions will take care of that, provide law enforcement training for dealing with the mentally ill. Now filibusters at Sepich about DNA stuff and wasn’t Sessions so important there? Blah, blah, blah. Expresses his gratitude to her and doesn’t let her talk.
