What a lie! Alito would be a replacement for Rehnquist. Roberts was picked to replace O'Connor then Rehnquist died. The probable moderate Roberts replaced the Marxist O'Connor. Alito is replacing Rehnquist.

No, he's replacing O'Connor, who is still on the court.

You are wrong.

Roberts was named to replace O'Connor.

Rehnquist died.

A second opening then occurred and Alito will be replacing Rehnquist. Roberts was elevated to Chief Justice and O'Connor agreed to stay on a bit longer is immaterial.

From a conservative's angle, Alito is replacing Rehnquist (2nd nominee, 2nd opening) and Roberts replaced O'Connor (1st nominee, 1st opening).

From a RAT's point of view and the MSM, ALito is replacing O'Connor since it makes the RATs' fight carry a bigger punch.
