Samuel Alito

Vince Novak is encouraging us to stand up and speak out against the Samuel Alito nomination to the Supreme Court through an effort MoveOn is organizing.

Right now, the Alito nomination just has me puzzled on a bunch of different levels and none of them particularly enjoyable. The more I read about Alito, the more a) generally concerned I become and b) the more all those protestations of LOVE for him by the likes of Kristol, Coulter, the 370-proof Chris Hitchensm, and self-hating multiple choice candidates like Mickey Kaus, Susan Estrogen... er.. Estrich, David ("He's just wild about Harry!") Drier have me reconsidering Canada.

But how dare the far right insist they have every Supreme Court justice, every member of Congress, every doctor and educator as their personal ventriloquist's dummy?
