The Family Research Council, which is backing the event dubbed "Justice Sunday III," said on its Web site that organizers were defending religious liberty and "raising the alarm over liberal secularists' attempts to expel prayer and people of faith from the public square."

The more pro-Alito rallies, the better. Maybe some Freepers will want to join them.

Who knows, if there are enough pro-Alito rallies, some of them could get coverage from the lamestream media.

Good pick up.

Keep the Google searches up.

We are the GOP's media militia.

I just watched 'The Patriot' with Mel Gibson.

The Dems will say what the Brits said "Sound Retreat" and "How did it come to this?" as we celebrate yet again.

When the British surrendured at Yorktown, their marching band played "The World Turned Upside Down." Hopefully, the 'Rats will be singing that when the confirmation hearings are over.

The Indiana state legislature is considering a bill that would ban all abortions in the state. The bill's sponsor realizes that it would be overturned by the courts, and that's what he wants. There has NEVER been a direct challenge to Roe v. Wade and the left is scared to death that Alito's vote would be enough to overturn it. That's why they are trying to "destroy" him (according to Drudge), they want to force Bush into appointing a moderate.
