The presiding officer the senator from south dakota. The presiding officer madam president , last week the Judiciary Committee held its hearing on judge Amy Coney Barretts nomination and it was easy to see why judge barrett is held in such high regard by her colleagues, students, and peers and why the American Bar Association gave her its highest rating of well qualified. We knew well before the hearing that judge barrett possesses an extraordinary intelligence and comprehensive command of the law. After three days of testimony americans got to see her qualifications for themselves. They saw why she has been described as a jurist, a formidable intellect, a brilliant and conscientious lawyer and staggering academic mind. Even the democratRanking Member on the committee couldnt hide the fact that she was impressed. Judge barrett understands the proper role of a judge in our system of government. As judge barrett made clear, she understands the job of a judge is to interpret the law, not

I am learning how to bet baseball just taking the underdog does not work they know how to do this if you put up 30. You could win your 30 plus more than 30 if you bet on the underdog without a spread. The underdog always loses. I found a new way to lose.
