Alito ditches weepy wife after hearings
I don't usually see eye-to-eye with Sam Alito--but if my spouse started bawling in the middle of my confirmation hearing, I'd be bent out of shape, too.* Talk an embarrassment.
Even Bush knows enough to surround himself with strong women. Strong, evil women, but still...
*Granted, it's a little passive aggressive to stay mad for a whole day after the outburst.
"Strong, evil women, but still ... "
BWA!!

Gee Lindsay,kinda tough on the gal aren't you?
Hey, I'm no Alito fan by any means, I'm afraid I'm falling into the camp that thinks he is better than many of the possible alternatives. Orrin Hatch should be tagged with a new nickname, befitting his character, maybe "Booby Hatch!"

In fairness to Judge Alito, his batteries were running dangerously low, so they had to rush him back to Sector 7G for a retrofit.

RE Alito:
Well, better than Gonzales, better than Ashcroft, better than Orrin Hatch and a number of other names that have been bandied about. It just doesn't seem reasonable for Bush to appoint, or the Senate to approve, someone that would be more palatable to the left.

How is he better than those people?

Those mean liberal Democrats ought to be ashamed! After first torpedoing Harriet Miers, now they viciously attacked Alito!

Thanks to my perusing your blog, specifically, "majikthise", I believe I have arrived at a defensible inference. That is, both you and your readers would welcome news of in-your-face overt opposition to your "smirking chimp", my "dum'ya botch".
In plainer terms, I want to run for Representative for Pennsylvania's 10th Congressional District on a platform calling for the impeachment of President George Walker Bush.
Incidentally, I deliberately referred to your blog to show you that I came upon your blog as a visitor, and not as a spammer. Yes, that last is an allusion to a "pre-deconstruction" chick flick with a rating of two and a half hankies.
Ah, before you click on any of the enclosed hyperlinks, please read the entirely of my comment. For example, the three planks I nailed together in my platform out to get me elected. "impeach bush" is the first plank. The second is "impeach bush". The third is like the second, "impeach bush".
To continue, the first hyperlink below leads to the opening salvo of my campaign.

As for the second hyperlink, it leads to evidence that my candidacy is about more than opposition solely for the sake of opposition.
