So is Alito a Miers or a Roberts?

Looks like a Roberts. Sam Alito has expressed a willingness to overturn Roe v. Wade, was against taking religious displays out of public areas during Christmas, and ruled in favor of a law allowing Iranian women to migrate to America under gender discrimination.

But--WHOOPS!-- Chuch Schumer is already on the attack. Here is a factual response to the lies he spewed forth in his angry response to Alito's nomination.

"Good morning, everybody. This morning I went and visited Rosa Parks in the Capitol Rotunda, to pay my respects. Being in the presence of Ms. Parks was awe-inspiring. This was a woman who changed history...."

Blah, blah, blah BLAH BLAH skipping ahead a bit....

"The real question today, is whether Judge Alito would use his seat on the bench, just as Rosa Parks used her seat on the bus, to change history for the better, or whether he would use that seat to reverse much of what Rosa Parks and so many others, fought so hard, and for so long, to put in place... A preliminary review of [Alito's] record raises real questions about Judge Alito's judicial philosophy, and his commitment to civil rights, to worker's rights, women's rights, the rights of average Americans, which the courts have always looked out for."

Ok, line by line:

"A preliminary review of [Alito's] record raises real questions about Judge Alito's judicial philosophy, and his commitment to civil rights..."

Question about his commitment to civil rights?! In Williams v. Price, Alito granted habeas corpus to a black prisoner who wanted to introduce evidence that a juror made a racist comment after a trial. Doesn't sound like someone who is insensitive to civil rights to me...

"to worker's rights, women's rights..."

Ah yes, Alito is certainly an anti-woman crusader for male superiority, thus the reason he ruled it acceptable for woman from Iran to be granted asylum in America under gender persecution grounds.

Best of all, Alito is a conservative. Many have even given him the nickname "Scalito" because of the similarities in his judicial philosophy to the philosophy of Judge Antonin Scalia.

One last quote from Schumer:

""It is sad that the president felt he had to pick a nominee likely to divide America instead of choosing a nominee in the mold of Sandra Day O'Connor, who would unify us."

First, isn't it interesting that the Dems didn't go around after Rehnquist's death saying that we needed another person "just like Rehnquist"? And secondly, how would O'Connor unify us? It certainly would not unify the right-wing with the left. Can we really expect anything in this country to unify patriotic, sane people (conservatives) with back-stabbing traitorous baby-killers (liberals)?

Rep. Dennis Kucinich (D-OH) on Oct. 20th, demanded a "resolution of inquiry" that would allow the House of Representatives to have access to "white papers, minutes, notes, emails or other communications kept by the White House Iraq Group (WHIG)" pre-Iraq war.

Apparently, Kucinich is looking for something to point to proving that Bush and Co. "lied" about our reasons for declaring war on Iraq.

The principal reason that America should move in the exact opposite direction that Dennis Kucinich would have is the fact that he is a Socialist, anti-American, pro-bin Laden pansy who is incapable of any kind of rational thought or comprehension.

Here are a few fun facts about Dennis:

Are you sleeping, Are you sleeping,
Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie,
And when the revolution comes,
We'll kill you all with knives and guns,
Bourgeoisie, Bourgeoisie

And another:

When the Red Revolution
Brings Its Solution
Along, Along

There'll be no more lootin'
When we start shootin'
That Wall Street throng

Of course, after the column exposed the Democratic Socialists as well as the Progressive Caucus, the website shortly thereafter deleted this page. Luckily, Archive.org still has its cache on there for you to read:http://web.archive.org/web/19980206053556/http://www.dsausa.org/rl/Docs/Songs.html#7

Kucinich believes that the only way to win the war on terror is by trying to make sure terrorists get more money: "We cannot hope to end terrorism by killing terrorists. Hatred feeds on violence and killing. I understand this and am here to offer a more practical approach: to reduce poverty worldwide..." He also offers other helpful suggestions, such as "pull our troops out of Iraq," "reaching out and rejoining the world community" and realizing the need to "develop a deep understanding of the cause-and-effect relationship between history and acts of terror."

And this man expects the American people to take him seriously when he proposes an effort to investigate White House intentions pre-Iraq invasion.

About WHIG, the group Kucinich wants an investigation into, here is what we know so far:

The White House Iraq Group (aka, White House Information Group or WHIG) was the marketing arm of the Republican Party whose purpose was to sell the 2003 invasion of Iraq to the public. The task force was set up in August 2002 by White House Chief of Staff Andrew Card and chaired by Karl Rove to coordinate all the executive branch elements in the run-up to the war in Iraq. One example of the WHIG's functions and influence is the "escalation of rhetoric about the danger that Iraq posed to the US, including the introduction of the term 'mushroom cloud'".

That's it. That's the problem: A group worked to drive support for the Iraq war based on true pretenses.

Dennis the Socialist Menace is probably not the person the Dems want representing them in their crusade to prove that Bush "lied" about the Iraq war. I wouldn't put too much money on this one, libs...
