He would be the FIFTH Catholic of the nine on Scotus.if we don't have any problem with the fact that there are 8 males and only one female, while females are about half of the population, why do we have to concern with 5 Catholics?
We don't. I hope. But the Dems love to make a point about religion. It happened in Robert's confirmation hearing. There are some elements who are suspicious about anything having to do with the Catholic church. Some here on FR have claimed the Pope is the anti-christ.
It's just something to expect to be used to spook people.
If Alito is rejected, I hope W sends Janice Rogers Brown next.
