He keeps talking about the Constitutionality of executing an innocent person. The Judge keeps saying (essentially) "we need a case."

I say Russ volunteer.

Well just about time to wander over and hear Rush give the rebuttal to the Democrat's Senators continuous lying.

He wants Alito to predict the future.

Or he wants Alito to recuse himself in the future.

The Constitution has only one guarantee: Article 4 Section 4 which states that the federal government shall guarantee to every state in the union a republican form of government.

The democrats have been chipping away at that for years. Even our current politicians believe we're a democracy.

I want to reeducate people.

Feingold makes my skin crawl. Wisconsin socialist who comes across as a slick, swarmy lawyer, whether he's a lawyer or not.

I hadn't heard this line before, Alito talking about a seminar he lead that delved into Civil Rights in light of the War on Terror. Alito says he knew that there would be lots of legal activity here - but uses the experience to point out the value in having a diverse (racially, sex, background) group in an educational context.

Interesting that Alito does not sign onto discrimination as furthering a compelling state interest.

Its Ironic that the Democrats would probably consider their own line of questions to Judge Alito during this hearing torture at Gitmo.

Alito says he can't imagine why congress wouldn't have the power to legislate who can get married.
