IF JUDGE ALITO IS CONFIRMED TO THE SUPREME COURT, YOU CAN KISS GOODBYE TO WOMEN'S RIGHTS, INCLUDING YOUR RIGHT TO DECIDE IF YOU WANT AN ABORTION OR NOT.

BUSH HAS ALREADY REPLACED A MODERATE WOMAN WITH ANOTHER ME-TOO CONSERVATIVE MAN WHICH HAS TIPPED THE BALANCE OF THE COURT. IF YOU WANT TO RETURN TO THE DAYS WHEN WOMEN WERE TREATED AS CHATTEL, ALITO'S APPOINTMENT WILL DO IT!

I URGE YOU TO EMAIL OUR SENATORS TO TELL THEM TO VOTE NO ON THE ALITO NOMINATION.

Amen sister and thanks for the links!

BTW: Looks like this poll machine is busted, too, all I see are the results, ergo, I can't vote! Is the poll software from Diebold?

Womens rights? Should the woman have been more careful? should the man have pulled out?

The real question you are asking is...

Should the baby have the right to live?

Abortion is by far the most selfish act a woman can ever have performed.

If the man wants the baby, shouldn't he have the right to raise the child?

Oh I forgot it takes a village, not a father.

All of you who are alive should vote for those who fight to preserve your right to have been born.

As usual Mr. Dunce doesn't get it. Let's ignore him and maybe he'll go away.

Alito's sure been coached to not reveal anything that might upset the imbalance of votes in the Senate.

Caught some of today's hearing on C-Span and could have kissed Sen. Schumer but what a spectacle! A judge nominated for the highest bench who dodges every question from Schumer then Cornyn lobs "questions" that can be answered either "yes" or "no".

When Cornyn congratulated Alito on answering "over 200 questions today", I wanted to shout FOUL! In the 1 hour+ I viewed, Judge Alito did not answer one substantive question!

This is not a committee hearing to determine Alito's qualifications, it's a Republican charade to get Alito to the Senate floor unscathed.

All Americans, American Women and American Justice deserve someone unafraid to stand up for their convictions, not an already documented liar who avoids questions to avoid lying.

Judge Alito may be a qualified jurist, but I wouldn't buy a used - or a new - car from him!

winifred,

Too bad you won't discuss. You go straight for the insult. If you were secure in your thought you would engage me in discussion.

Well, yesterday was same-oh, same-oh! Reminds one of the Nixon Crime Family who popularized the term "stonewall" (v,i).

How can one have respect for a judge who conceals his views to gain the bench? What does that do to respect for the Court the man serves on? How can one have respect for the law itself when it's administered by such men - for the rest of their lives?

The minority anti-abortionists have the man, the strategy and the votes to force their will on America and make back alley abortions a hallmark of the early 21st Century.

Sex certainly terrifies these folks. Take a look at that blank wonkish stare that Alito gets whenever the subject of abortion comes up - how'd you like to climb in the sack with that expression, gals?

Looks like the Republican theatrics are over. Do we kiss good-bye to Roe v. Wade now or wait?

Did'ja notice that Alito didn't even acknowledge his "distraught" wife today when he got up from the table and left the hearing room? Not a good sign for women...

The Democrats clearly lost their way and didn't gain the votes of the Republican Moderates necessary to block the confirmation of Judge Alito on the Senate floor.

The Judiciary Committee is scheduled to vote on the nomination Jan. 17, and Senator Frist has said he wants to hold a floor vote shortly thereafter.

We need to remind all Senators in no uncertain terms that Alito is an ideological right-wing conservative who would not be able or interested in reaching fair judgments that conflict with his principles on abortion, the supremecy of the Executive Branch and any previous decision rendered by the Supreme Court.

The Committee hearings were Alito's opportunity to demonstrate his worthiness to serve on the Supreme Court and he simply did not! Judge Alito's stonewalling, aided and promoted by the Republican committee-members, subverted the democratic process. That's the way the Republican NeoCons achieve their agenda at every turn and we have to draw the line here!

Please email, write and/or phone Senators McCain and Kyl and tell them to vote against the confirmation of Judge Alito.

McCain: [link:mccain.senate.gov] for contact info and local addresses and phone numbers.
Kyl: [link:kyl.senate.gov] Ditto.

Thanks!
