Machine Gun Sam Scalito
Just a little poke in the eye for those trying to pretend "gun rights" is in any way bipartisan...or anything other than racist right wing extremism hiding under a new sheet...

"In a controversial dissent in a 1996 case involving the sale and possession of machine guns, Alito argued that Congress had no authority to curb the sale - even of fully automatic machine guns - if they were not specifically involved in interstate commerce. "

http://www.mercurynews.com/mld/mercurynews/news/politics/13046519.htm

You might recall that dreary little loony tune Alan Keyes was also running around last fall saying gun loonies ought to be able to have machine guns...but he had to back down when the remark became widely known.

Rat-a-tat-tat!

2. Rat a tat tat...take that, you dirty rats!
Besides machine guns for the Aryan Nation, Scalito also stands for strip-searching 10 year olds.

He thinks racism is hunky-dory if an empty rationale can be produced for it. He's defended harassment as free speech and religious displays on public property.

Soembody who thought that sort of crap was the philosophy of this country would be unlikely to pass a citizenship test....

And remember, he's less qualified than Harriet Miers. Sloppy seconds with Sam.

Edited on Tue Nov-01-05 08:57 AM by ...of J.Temperance
I think that this is an important article and people should read it...so I've given the thread a vote.

On Edit: I thought it was Machine Gun Sam Alito.

Memo to me: Don't think of trying to spell stuff UNTIL you've had your 6 cups of Espresso to wake you up.

5. (Double snicker)
I'm therefore thinking of sending Machine Gun Sam some new duds...perhaps a snappy pin stripe suit, a big Fedora and some spatz.

Yeah, that's the ticket.

One can't really go wrong either quoting Mario Puzo OR James Cagney lines from 'White Heat' or 'Angels With Dirty Faces' ;)

8. A little kicky wicky for the Beltway Snipers
Think of all the fun they had with an assault weapon...and how much more they could have had with a machine gun...
