Alito didn't just lie to Kennedy about Roe.
https://www.washingtonpost.com/archive/politics/2006/01/12/the-democrats-last-roar-by-way-of-princeton/3fe71d11-ef85-4c4f-8a20-6c558704fd49/
He belonged to an alumni group at Princeton dedicated to limiting minorities and especially women admitted as undergrads. Kennedy nailed Sammy on it at the hearings and made him sweat, but Specter and Graham rushed to his rescue. Mrs. Sammy on cue ran out of the room crying. But Sammy survived to destroy women another day. Article is from 2006. Why the press doesn't cover this little gem from the past is beyond me, sort of.

1. DU was on to his fascist ass from Day 1.
From 2006:

20. And may I remind you that it was the media who printed the article quoted on DU. It's up to
the people to take action on the basis if what the media reports.

8. K & R and thank you.
I remember this hearing.. I had hope they would block Alito since everyone I listened to said he was worse than Scalia. I loved Ted Kennedy and hate that he's dead and Alito's alive.
Fuck off Sam, you and your weepy wife.. |

10. Alito and Thomas are reveling in delight at owning the Libs. This must be especially gratifying for
both monsters. I remember Alito"a wife weeping at the hearing and the msm chastising the big bad democrats. I hope karma is a real thing and one day Alito"s grandkid or other relative suffers miserably because of a medical condition left untreated because of Dobbs. I generally do not wish ill will towards anyone by Alito is a special kind of monster. He has become more radicalized over the years. His speech on religious liberty in Rome made me want to vomit.

19. Too late; what's the point; we're stuck with him
He's a justice of the Extreme Court for life. Press coverage or no, he's not going anywhere. All these extreme conservative Catholics on the court, noboty expected the Spanish Inquisition.

21. Why? Ownership has its privleges
And the idea the press is liberal is.. a rather pernicious myth.

22. Graham rushing in
to derail pertinent lines of questioning just as he would later do for Kavanaugh. Lest we forget the circumstances for Kavanaugh, he had just been cornered by their own "expert" about having falsely claimed that his "diaries" (phony as the day is long) had no possible dates when he could have committed the assault. Graham began to fluster like a cornered rat when Graham burst at the seams with loud indignation and demanded a recess. During which they concocted how to get around this and move on. Which they did.
