(Sc)Alito's nomination to replace O'Connor
November 1, 2005 1:19 AM
Well, it's on. Alito is clearly to the right of O'Connor, and the Washington Post has an inciteful article outlining the nexus of these two judge's decisions.
The record is clear: On some of the most contentious issues that came before the high court, Alito has been to the right of the centrist swing voter he would replace. As a result, legal analysts across the spectrum saw the Alito appointment yesterday as a bid by President Bush to tilt the court, currently evenly divided between left and right, in a conservative direction.
Bush is clearly attempting to stack the court, and he must be stopped. Americans must be educated about this nomination, and clearly demand a more moderate replacement.
Sign the petition against this nomination over at People for The American Way.
