| It's fascinating, actually, to watch. | |
| Most of the Democratic senators, as pointed out by Senator Cruz, were not even in the room when the last questioning was done. | |
| done, I think it was Senator Whitehouse, unless she has Tourette's Syndrome and starts mumbling obscenities, obscenities, it's very hard to imagine why she would not be confirmed. | |
| I'll tell you one of the things I like about her is that she didn't go to Yale or Harvard. | |
| This country has a bunch of false gods that have substituted for The God who created the heavens and the earth. | |
| College is a god. | |
| Degrees are gods. | |
| Prestigious colleges are gods. | |
| Why would parents bribe to get their child into UCLA or USC? Forget the act of the bribery itself. | |
| The belief that your child must go to one of these places, I don't believe it is only, oh, it'll be so good for my child. | |
| Many parents feel that their parenthood is judged by the prestige level of the college that their child attends. | |
| I can't think of an emptier. | |
| Way to assess whether you were a good parent. | |
| You could have produced a despicable human being who got into Yale. | |
| You could have produced a remarkably wonderful kid who didn't even go to college. | |
| But it's the report card on your parenting. | |
| That's one of the reasons. | |
| It's also interesting that she would be, I believe, is it correct, the sixth Catholic? | |
| Out of nine judges? | |
| I think that's the case. | |
| It's pointed out on occasion. | |
| It's an interesting question as to, is it just a coincidence? | |
| Or is there a reason? | |
| It may well be a coincidence. | |
| But it's clearly a credit to the Catholic intellectual tradition. | |
| If you do have six Catholics out of the nine, I personally couldn't care less. | |
| It is of no interest to me in that regard because I want people with the judicial philosophy that their task is not to make law. | |
| Senator Cruz, who was turning out to be truly a luminous senator, He has found his niche. | |
| He will not be president of the United States. | |
| I think he recognizes that. | |
| And so he has decided to be as good a senator as he can, which is very important. | |
| And he made the point that take school choice. | |
| He said, I am for school choice. | |
| He said that's the civil rights issue of this century. | |
| And he said, "As much as I might like to see it ruled accordingly in the Supreme Court, that's not the venue." The arena where school choice should be enacted is not the Supreme Court. | |
| It is with us in the Senate, in Congress, that one black would vote for the Democrats given... | |
| The disastrous governing of where blacks tend to live, all by Democrats for a half century, and the obscene opposition to school choice. | |
| Oh, blacks don't get a chance. | |
| They don't go to good schools. | |
| That is the reason for the inferior rates of graduation and academic achievement among many blacks. | |
| Yes, so here's a remedy. | |
| Let them choose the school they want to go to. | |
| Both are against that. | |
| Why are you against that? | |
| Because the teachers' unions are against that. |
