Republican Sen. Lindsey Graham described today's hearing -- at which Judge Brett Kavanaugh is finally about to speak -- as "the hypocrisy hearing," citing Democrats' outrage in contrast to their past positions with regards to President Bill Clinton nominating Justice Stephen Breyer while he was under investigation and Sen. Ted Kennedy choosing a "staff person."
He also brought up Roe v. Wade.
"Who would ever play politics on the campaign trail with Roe v. Wade, what a bastard Donald Trump is," he said, mimicking Democrats before quoting Hillary Clinton stating, "We need a Supreme Court that will stand up on behalf of women's rights."
He added, "If you even suggest that you will pick a nominee that's not gonna uphold Roe v. Wade that's the end of you, but you've figured that out, you don't need me to tell you. so this is the way we do politics, this is a big decision called Roe v. Wade, there are two sides and a bunch of nuances."
