The real problem is that these liberal friends of yours do not seem to grasp what mean, nasty, bullying tactics these liberal DemocRATs use all the time. That is really what is sad. Intelligent (maybe an oxymoron) liberals have lost all ability to think beyond the agenda to "get Bush."

Love your nic, m'dear - describes me to a "T" as well.
I agree with you - but here's hoping that once they see what lies and smears they use against a man they have admiration for, they might just wonder about the rest of the crap they're fed by their side. God knows my conversion came in the quietest of ways - listening to Rush and making fun of the Big Guy and his blowhard opinions, until one day a caller from "my side" called up and Rush's answer plain blew him out of the water and blew me away. I stopped listening to liberals that day (and, sadly, for the life of me, I cannot remember the subject matter, but I know it had something to do with Clinton).

She's not a 'thinking' liberal. Reread her piece. She thinks that Alito won't advance a conservative agenda at the court so he's okay. She is everything that is ruining this nation - put MY politics on the court, don't read the law and decide cases based on intent.
SCOTUS will continue to function as an oligarchy until we take their toy away. They have assumed absolute power and no one has the balls to put them in their place. Congress has to create the power for the legislative and executive branches to reverse the court's decisions. Then there might be a balance of power.

This is not going to be a consistent conservative vote on the court.I don't want a "consistent conservative vote on the court." I want a consistent Constitutionalist vote on the court.
Conservatism MUST come from the President and Congress.

We used to argue that life begins at conception and any abortion was murderAbortion is murder. Life does begin at conception. These are not arguments. These are facts.

I'm of the mind that while the 4th Amendment guarantees us privacy in our persons and homes via the reasonable search provision, I cannot fathom how the Constitution protects the right to abortion. For one thing, Amendment 9. "The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people"
I have no problem with a right to privacy, but abortion is not an issue of privacy. If you accept that a fetus is not 'alive', then it's very simple. I can't remember where I heard it but someone once said (paraphrasing) "If a fetus is not alive, no justification is necessary. If a fetus IS alive, no justification is possible." In fact, a mother is not merely making the choice whether to have an abortion or not, she is choosing when life (metaphysically speaking) begins. An question of this importance simply should not be left to individual choice.

This is nothing more or less than propaganda intended to create doubts in conservatives ...Bingo! Never forget one important fact: LIBERALS ALWAYS LIE!! It goes with the amoral irreligious territory they have staked out as their very own.
The author knows this one is lost for the Godless ones, so she is just doing the propaganda thing to try to throw a wrench in our works ...
Read it for amusement only ...

As a liberal, what scares me is not the prospect of having Sam Alito on the Supreme Court; what scares me is the way my fellow liberal Democrats are behaving in response to the nomination. Im appalled and embarrassed by the fear mongering, the personal attacks and what I see as an irresponsible and misleading distortion of his real judicial record as well as his character
Wake up and smell the coffee pinhead, this is business as usual for "liberals". Where have you been?

... if the SCOTUS overturns RvW for reasons other than 1) it is a very badly written law ...Correct! RvW is bad law! Rush has said that he knows of more than one very intelligent Liberal lawyer who has told him that he favors abortion, but wants to see RvW overturned, because it is very bad law!

All those who clamored on FR for an Alito may want to read this real carefully. This is not going to be a consistent conservative vote on the court. You have only yourselves to blame for it, but you'll find a way to blame someone else.
I don't want a justice with an agenda. I want a justice that will abide by the Constitution.

but here's hoping that once they see what lies and smears they use against a man they have admiration for, they might just wonder about the rest of the crap they're fed by their side. You would think so, wouldn't you? When you know the person is not a bigot, racist, Nazi, terrorist, liar, ________ (fill in the blank with the smear of your choice), and you see what the democratic leadership is doing to what you consider to be a good man, wouldn't you question what has come before?

Even the liberals are tired of these democrats. These democrats in the Senate have no idea how despicable they are. How they can be so obsessed with abortion is beyond me.

You are obviously not a conservative. Conservatives do not want activist judges and justices pushing any agenda or theology right or left. Conservatives are constitutionalists who believe that the constitution already gives us all of the tools needed to rectify the current situation or amend the constitution.
To: Owen
This is not going to be a consistent conservative vote on the court Define your terms. What I heard was a man who understands the real role of the Judiciary. I'll take my chances with him.
When Roe makes its way back to SCOTUS, the tenth Amendment kicks in.

In all candor, I expect that if I did not know Judge Alito, I may have responded to the nomination with the same distrust, fear and suspicion with which I usually respond to everything the Bush administration does, so I understand the genesis of the attacks by my fellow liberals.I wonder if the author ever considers that many of the stances of her fellow liberals are equally false, bigoted, ignorant or deliberately deceptive. Personal experience leads her to another conclusion here, but she really has to step back and wonder how many other things they've been lying about?
