feinstein, because in 1995, as you well know, kagan wrote a law review article in which she said this: subsequent hearings have presented to the public a vapid and holly charade in which repetition of platitudes has replaced discussion of viewpoints. now i know there is going to be a lot of joking on the committee. well, she said that when she wasn t a nominee and stuff. why not hold her to accounts and say, and press her to be more forth coming in her views? i believe this is going to come up at the hearing and she is very likely to be pressed for her views. chris: what if she says, well, i doesn t matter. we all read it. it was very precise. she expressed her very strong views that a nominee should be more forth coming, we should be more pressing in our questions and chris: so you re going to hold her to that? i suspect members will hold her to this. chris: senator graham? well, i expect that she will have a reevaluation of that
in wall to wall tonight, an update on the effort to cap that tragic oil spill in the gulf of mexico. we want to show you this structure right here. it looks a little awkward, but it left port today. it s a giant dome, a cap they want to use to plug the biggest leak underground. they capped the small one today. let s show you how this is supposed to work. here it is right here. it will be brought out on a crane. the idea is to lower it down over where the oil is gushing out. if it is successful, the oil would be taken in a tube to a tanker ship. that is a plan. still questions about the engineering of this would work. let s walk over to the magic wall. a big political debate about the pace of the disaster response, whether bp has been forth coming, let s go back and look at the key days. it was on the 20th of april that the oil rig exploded. search and rescue was the top priority in those first days.
