AlitoThe Senate is an embarrassment. The Alito supporters (ie, Republicans) toss softballs and work to counter any suggestions that Alito might not be perfect for the job. The Democrats lob hand grenades, some quite unfairly and in the most uncivil manner, stretching to make this moderately likable man seem like a villain, a bigot, a liar and a thief.My take on Alito:
Frankly, I could care less about Roe. It is time that Congress and the States addressed the question anyway. But the rest of the list is really scary. It is time for a filibuster, followed by all-out parliamentary warfare. | +Save/Share | | |
