Alito threw off the Alito disguise and out jumped Earl Warren.
On second thought,maybe not.

1. Maybe this was just so they could say |
|
"See? He ruled for the little guy!"....The media moves on, then when no one is looking, he'll do something so outrageous that every American will pay.

2. Wouldn't that be the best....if he was really a liberal in disguise.... |
|
who spent his whole life tricking the American Taliban Nazi Party into believing he was one of them, and then.....GOTCHA!!!! Would never happen. Liberals don't scheme that much. Sometimes I wish they did.

3. He didn't rule "for the little guy." |
|
He ruled for THE COURT. The state. As usual.

4. They don't seem too worried over at Freerepublic |
|
I am not holding my breath but this give us some hope. Here is how some freepers see this:
To: jveritas "Justice Alito you have been in the Supreme court for few hours and now we want you to order the execution a man without reviewing his case!" No, you're absolutely right.
Those of us who supported this guy did so because we trusted his judgement.

5. Hey, you never know...look at David Souter! |
|
Bush I appointed him, expecting a conservative, and wasn't John Paul Stevens appointed by Nixon? I'm NOT getting my hopes up, but maybe, just maybe, Alito won't be the monster we all expect and fear. (OK, call me Pollyanna....I've been called worse!) O8)

9. Stevens was appointed by Ford |
|
Who was actually a fairly decent Republican.
Harry Blackmun was appointed by Nixon, and he ended up writing the opinion for Roe v. Wade.
I guess we can always hope.
