Scalito is "THAT BAD"
Scalito is a America's worst nightmare as a nominee for a seat on the U.S. Supreme Court.
- He is clearly against a woman's right to choose specifically and against a right of personal privacy more broadly (at least when it comes to private sexual behavior).
- He believes in absurdly high standards for proving employment discrimination specifically and more broadly supports corporations over individuals and employers over employees.
- His prior testimony before Congress on conflicts of interest and his spin regarding his subsequent nonrecusal activities show a disregard for the truth.
- He believes in an imperial presidency.
- He has so little regard for the rights and freedoms granted individuals under the Constitution that he would allow a strip search of a 10 year old girl who is not named in the relevant warrant.
- He is a Federalist Society true-believer with a history of participation in other conservative reactionary groups like CAP.
He is in Priscilla Owen/Janice Rogers-Brown territory.
How can any sensible Democrat or moderate Republican vote for a guy whose views are so out of touch with our American values?

at a time this important for the future of the American judiciary, I suggest you take the unusual step of recirculating your prior Scalito posts and comments.
The future of the Court may depend upon it.
