    Senate made Warren's point for her: If reading the truth about Sessions and voting rights impugns his character, then he shouldn't be AG.

        Impugn: dispute the truth, validity, or honesty of. Why shouldn't we always do this, to ALL politicians?

        the Senate rule says "impute" anyway. Not the same thing.

        @LOLGOP but you'd need a conscious to realize that. @GOP lost that, its soul, its sense of doing good.

        Exactly. He has impugned himself for decades. "call into question, challenge, question, dispute, query, take issue with"

        "reading the truth"? CSK's opinion about Sessions is not a fact. It's her calling him racist, which impugns his character.

        Unless that's a fact. Also, impugning his character is kind of what they were supposed to be doing.

        It's an opinion, unless you could read his mind. Impugning motives is exactly what you're not allowed to do to another senator.

        Calling facts "opinions" is just bad vocabulary. And it's what she's *required* to do to nominees.

        "he is a disgrace to the Justice Department" is not a fact. It's an opinion.
