So there were no second choices that wanted the job, even though these two gentlemen have been fully vetted? This tells me more things about this WH that really are making me damn sick!

The possible Alito appointment makes you sick? Please look on the bright side of things and stop plummeting down into the depths of despair of DU....

I love the pick, but I have always hated to be lied to. One of my pet peeves I'm afraid, and the WH did just that with their excuse of no one else wanted the job. It was nothing more than a steaming pile of crap from a WH I have less respect for.

More more thing. This family is making life really tough for Jeb's national ambitions. So far we have Bush 41 with "read my lips, no new taxes, and Bush 43 with "I would like to introduce you to Harriet Meirs the conservative".

Not to mention that the Administration and the First Lady herself called conservatives elitists and sexists because anyone dared to ask any questions about an unknown.

You read her writings from 1993, and it's a damn good thing we elitist and sexist pigs asked those questions. Others were more than willing to support the nomination just because "the president said so".

Trust a doctrine or a philosophy and not men. They let you down every time, and George Bush is no exception.
