5. I'll let the Rude One speak for me.

Sometimes it doesn't matter if you're going to take a beating, you gotta do what you gotta do.

6. Holy Cow! Then there's no Freaking Question! MOST AMERICANS OPPOSE
Alito!

If that many groups and orgs are in opposition of Alito, and favor Filibuster, if that many organizations are also activists... then there should be no question on whether to filibuster or not!

What the hell! It's all there in plain site.. what could Senators possibly be thinking, when they say "no filibuster" ???

this is amazing, really very amazing and wonderful to see.

8. Not sure if this is realFedUp's source, but this list is similar:
http://saveourcourts.civilrights.org/nominees/nominees/Alito_opposed.html


That list should speak volumes to anyone riding the fence on Alito. Wow.

(this is my post, still learning "the ropes"...excuse any guffaws, please)
