  1. stately

    Awful should not be used of things which are merely disagreeable or annoying, nor of all that are alarming and terrible, but only of such as bring a solemn awe upon the soul, as in the presence of a superior power; as, the awful hush before the battle. That which is awful arouses an oppressive, that which is august an admiring reverence; we speak of the august presence of a mighty monarch, the awful presence of death. We speak of an exalted station, a grand mountain, an imposing presence, a majestic cathedral, a noble mien, a solemn litany, a stately march, an august assembly, the awful scene of the Judgment Day.

    Some GOP senators're going to go from a nice, stately left wing liberal to someone who's probably more in the style of Sonia Sotomayor, i hope it's not someone like Sonia Sotomayor, who went for a hearing about the virus and start spouting off facts, which just two minutes later fact checkers all over the world were giving Sonia Sotomayor' Four Pinocchios' zone. I hope it's at least someone who will at least not misrepresent the facts. I think they will misinterpret the law.
