If Alito is confirmed. . . . warrent-less wiretaps will be legal!! |

So will rendition, so will the "enemy combatant" category of American Citizen...so will ALL OF BUSH'S WORST LAWBREAKING ACTIONS
We must not let up on our Senators... 'pub & dem alike.

2. there may not BE another Democratic administration.. |
|
Alito will ALSO support the new, worse provisions of the Patriot Act that will let them round up protesters...And forGET any election reform. (Ohio's new laws prohibiting recounts will be upheld)

3. Lots of repukes are blaming Dems for resisting, saying Alito is above |
|
reproach and how Alito knows the Constitution like an encyclopedia.
Knowing something and adhering to something are vastly different.
I'd almost want to say "vote him in" so those "pro-constitution" brainwashed babboons can see how blinded they truly are. They're pissed over the new "annoy someone and go to jail law", but that still hasn't stopped them from drooling over Alito. But most of them are no longer keen on Bush.

6. He didn't disavow a single radical view... he's the worst |
|
I don't want the wiretapping to become legal I don't want the rendition to become legal I don't want the rounding up of protesters to become legal I don't want American citizens being "declared" enemy combatants without recourse to the courts I don't want America to be a country where people "disappear"
ALITO MUST BE STOPPED
I'm pestering all the phone answerers in the district offices of Senators too!! I'm going to get them from as many different directions as I can.
Woe is any Democrat that supports this fascist... HEAR THAT NELSON?!?

4. I've got a sick feeling that just about anyone he nominates |
|
will be a pathetic stooge, fiercely loyal to Bush.
Anyone he puts on the Supreme court will give him whatever he wants.

7. Yeah, but we can't fillabuster everyone |
|
And, I assure you, everyone he nominates will be a stooge.
I doubt he is too invested in getting any particular candidate through. He can always find someone else who will sell their soul (if they haven't already sold it to BushCo).
And, the more we block his nominations, the better for him. It makes us look "mean", and lets him play the victim.
