Rev. Jerry Falwell to rally for Alito

Rev. Jerry Falwell to rally for Alito


The Rev. Jerry Falwell will be in Philadelphia for a national broadcast Sunday in an attempt to rally conservatives on the eve of confirmation hearings for U.S. Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito.

And Falwell is saying that the confirmation process for Alito could be a bruising, bare-knuckled affair.

“This will bring out the worst from groups on the left,” Falwell said. “Leading the charge will be the National Organization of Women, the American Civil Liberties Union and American United for Separation of Church and State. Senators Clinton, Leahy, Schumer and Kennedy will be noisy on the subject.”

Falwell and several other conservative leaders hope to offset negative rhetoric about Alito in Sunday’s multimedia simulcast, which has been dubbed Justice Sunday III. The event will be carried on television, radio and the Internet.

“It will cover a great deal of the country,” Falwell said

2. Hey Jerry
You sanctimonous POS...
why don't you go join your friend Pat
and the two of you can spew
all the vileness you want
to each other....

the rest of us don't want to hear
about this so-called GAWD
that puts little voices in your head.
Are you sure it's not an implant?

3. Fallwell, Robertson and the rest
should just FOAD. I'm so sick of seeing this prostitute using piece of shit hunt for cameras. I swear the minute he finds himself in hell I'm going to throw a party and everyone's invited.

7. Did you hear Keith Olberman last night/
He said that "If there is an afterlife, do you get the feeling that Mr. Robertson is going to spend his first thousand years there very surprised?" Or something to that effect.

11. Didn't hear it, but sure fits ...
I think if there is an afterlife (and, ah heck, I'm open minded, anything is possible), the basement is going to have a lot of shrieking new tenants when this batch "passes over." We won't be able to go near a volcano ... the stench will worsen by several thousand percent.

6. So, essentially, Falwell is (once again) injecting a political opinion
"Reverend" Falwell is not speaking as a private citizen is he? hmmmmmm....

9. I was thinking that too
He need to decide - either he is a reverend or he is a conservative leader. Tax exemption is only available to him if he is a reverend. Seems tax EVASION is what all the conservative leaders are wearing this year.

Shit or get off the pot, Jerry.
