It is absolutely disgusting that the two NJ Senators, Lautenberg and Menedez voted against a "native son". The could have at least had the decency to vote "Present" if not a yes.

Bob Menendez is running for election this Fall. I sure hope the people of NJ remember the shabby treatment Alito received.

This whole thing just goes to show what happens when we make noise.

We didn't sit back and allow Meiers to be passed through.

Yeah, that's what I thought when I had it pointed out to me. Now, here's the corker: it was a black preacher that connected those dots for me.

Today is just a crushing, devastating, blow to the Democrats and American Left...

Really, this is going to have major implications for any future that movement has left...

I mean really...

I'm thinking that there will be a Special Edition of the DUmmie Funnies. One that will be remembered for a LONG time.

A lot of Catholic Italians in New Jersey. Wonder how they will feel about Menendez dissing their native son.

I sure hope so. And I hope President Bush gets a third appointment.

Sorry. Had to leave work before the final vote tally came in... Thanks for updating the title for us. That was great.

I bet I could instantly derail a lot of the hard left opposed to Alito by stopping their rant in mid-sentence and asking 'Can you tell me exactly WHY you were opposed to Alito for the US Supreme Court? What in your view specifically disqualifies Alito?'.

I'd expect to see blinking, faraway states, detect an uncomfortable pause, and finally receive a stammering sputtering reply about how when Alito was at Princeton, someone might have written something that was offensive to someone else... they think. Maybe. Something like that.

... Oh, and BUSH WANTS ALITO!!!

Yes, I do believe that the left wing is well-represented by the very Democrats they today claim to detest.

Rebels without a cause.

Yep, and they're probably on this thread telling us how bad they are over there. Last thing we need is a forum war. It's stupid.

But I guess they think Kennedy has shown his ass enough. Sorry for that horrible mental image

LOL It's a very broad subject, and a weighty one as well ;)

I've always considered that the "P" word carried more weight whenever a woman used it to describe a man.

LOL.
