Alito is not "stealth". 95 percent of the FReepers know what his Judicial philosophy is.

DeWine just OWNED the Democrats with the quotes about O'Connor from some lefists.

Who is this now? I missed it.

So far, the one I like best came earlier this morning when Alito said in answer to a 'living, breathing document' question that the principles of the Constitution don't change.

[Jrabbit]

That was brilliant!! I actually cheered!

Granted it's been a few years, but I thought Scotus in Bush v Gore decided that Florida could recount, but not just their hand picked counties; if they did a recount it had to be all the counties. Am I remembering that wrong?

Correct

And when that didn't work .. the Dems tried to extend the time for a recount

The USSC said no and THAT is the part this ticks off the Libs

[Howlin]

o boy i wish i could be with them

Now he's going after Kennedy saying he was a racist. Dewine is cooking with gas now.

Alito probably wore "pocket protectors" in HS....(g)

REVENGE OF THE NERDS!!!!

Given what's happened to the Democratic party since then, I honestly believe this is what drove them over the edge into insanity.

[Chuck54]

No problem, I get fat-fingered when typing and sometimes my laptop just decides to send message w/o asking. Thank goodness for Preview.

That was pretty great. I missed the first part of the speech and I was getting really mad, "why is this rino giving the dems talking points!"

[Christian4Bush]

bttt

[conservativebabe]

DeWine is spank, spank, spanking the Dems right now.

[GaltMeister]

They really need to start a drinking game.

Many hours after everyone has left the party. A few stragglers find a quarter and a shot glass.

[retrokitten]

Thanks!

Billary's brainchild.

You're right though, the fact that Kohl views that trifling nanny-state directive as the most important piece of "social legislation in history" merely serves to illustrate how clueless he is.
