Reply #38: His Reagan-era background as enabler of 'suspension of Constitution' [View All]

[EVDebs]

efforts by Ollie North and the gang...is why it matters. But the media and the R's love POWER, not the wise use of power. It's not about democracy with them, they hate any dissent--even if they could learn from it.

We need to remind ourselves that simply by posting to DU we could be labelled 'dissenters' and hauled off to camps set up under Operation CableSplicer and Operation GardenPlot, which Alito probably signed off on during his Reagan DOJ Constitutional oversight position

""From 1985-1987, Alito served in the Office of Legal Counsel as Deputy Assistant Attorney General where he provided constitutional advice for the Executive Branch (Reagan era)""

If he was rubberstamping the evisceration of the Constitution THEN, just think what he'll do under current and future administrations...
