Deliberate misinformation about Alito from the repugs & media.
Edited on Tue Jan-24-06 03:40 PM by Botany
"It is a done deal." "Nobody is going to filibuster." "His wife's tears turned the table."
And so on. Remember ..... Al Gore should quit whining, Bush won fair and square. (since proven false)
We know where the weapons are.
Nothing was wrong with Ohio's vote.
Our operations in Iraq, will cost at the most 2 billion.

NOW IS THE TIME! If not now, when? If not this lying little creep w/ a very selective memory, who?
If not the SCOTUS, where do we make a stand?

Remember, that awful time in 2000 Nov & Dec when the SCOTUS stopped the count in Florida because of
in Tony Scalia's own words, "If the count proceeds their* is a significant chance for embarrassment to the
plaintiff."

To quote Stephanie Miller, "Is this a hill worth dying on?"
And to me the answer is YES.



This man, John Adams, fought for a powerful and independent court (PBS last night great show!)

Bush is packing the court w/ people who care more about the rights of the powerful vs the
rule of law and the rights of "We the people."

Sorry off rant now ..... but only if you call your senators and ask for a filibuster. :rant:


* English ? Is it their or there in this context ..... so the 70s & 80s were a little rough on my brain :rofl:

1. I personally think Adams was a piss ant!

There was a reason that Jefferson refused to speak to him for decades! Alien & Sedition Act, gratuitous imprisonment of journalists, I guess I just don't really like Federalists, John in particular and his sidekick Alexander H. But that aside...

This Hill is worth dying for!

8. Jefferson & Madison were true American heroes.
Adams went bad along the way, I believe the power of the Presidency corrupted him. Appointing Marbury to the Supreme Court wasn't doing anyone any favor either. Marbury v Madison was a terrible mistake.
