Judge Sotomayor, Al Franken and Perry Mason


For those who do not remember the TV series, Perry Mason, here is the opening. Al Franken ended his questioning of Judge Sotomayor today by asking her about Perry Mason's only case he lost. She mentioned watching Perry Mason as a child and wanting to be a lawyer. Turns out, Judge Sotomayor and Al both did not know that episode. the episode is "The Case of the Deadly Verdict" and the plot is here.

Al Franken's dry humor came out, despite his trying to be very very serious and Senatorial. It should be fun having him in the Senate. Talk about the Liberal consciousness of the Senate, now that Ed Kennedy is about to depart, Franken and Sen. Leahy will be the most liberal.

I also like having a conservative consciousness in the Senate too, its just that people like Lindsey Graham, though conservative, are just so friggin stupid...ya na?
