The article gives three listed reasons. What me dino considers the most important reasons stated elsewhere in the article were left out of the numeration bit.
At the top of the article the writer states that "the Constitution doesn't require a hearing. All it says is that the Senate must give advise* and consent."
"Advise" is a typo. Me dino had to look up what I thought was the word was~ta da!~"advice."
The next most important reason is at the bottom of the article where it states that these hearings is a waste of the Senate's time and the taxpayer's money. Oora!h
The listed three reasons ran like so~
1. Senators are asking both unanswerable and, frankly, nongermane questions.
2. These hearings have become nothing but political grandstanding for political bases.
3. These hearings have become a circus, a theater, a fiasco, whatever you want to call it.
