Judge Alito's nomination

Don't know much about this guy, but early returns are not good.  Apparently he's very much in the mold of Fat Tony and a darling of the conservatives, meaning he's an ideologue rather than a jurist.

The Roberts nomination didn't bother me.  This one does.

This one bugs the crap out of me too.  Strikes me as Bush pandering to the far right wing.  I guess it shouldn't surprise me too much, since Bush is the leader of the far right wing and all...

BUSH is NOT the leader of the far right wing!

He may be the leader of the religious right, but he certainly doesn't represent any of the conservatives that I know.
