Interesting details, worth a read.

How much time, trouble, and money has that idiot Earl Warren cost our country with his "exclusionary principle"? How many murderers have gone free on technicalities?

There were some bad justices before that time, but it was Earl Warren who really screwed up the rule of law in this country.

Hypothetical question: What is the desired result of these liberal judges? They must know that the end result will effect them and their offspring sometime down the road. I can't understand their thinking.

Police obtained a warrant to search the home of Michael McGinley, a disbarred lawyer with a history of drug and assault arrests who was believed to be dealing in amphetamines.

Does anyone happen to know whether this is the same "Michael McGinley" who's President of Local 1201 of the Service Employees International Union?

So, the Democrats focused on a strip search case brought by a disbarred lawyer.

Hmmm, does the name of a prominent Democrat that is a disbarred lawyer come to mind?

Laws are for the common folk according to the libs. If you doubt that, ask how Ted *hick* Kennedy's Oldsmobile did and how Mary Jo is doing.

This description of the body search is very different from what I perceived from the hearings. The Dems are a bunch of a****s.

Don't know if he is the same guy, but the arrest of McGinley occurred in a county just northwest of Philly. Interesting find MF.

He was a nut case in power. I did not like him as a kid and my opinion has not changed.

That was an awesome read. Excellent attention to detail, much like Judge Alito will bring to the bench. Thank you! :)

The Dems: "If Judge Alito is confirmed, your phone will be strip searched." /sarcasm

A smear that failed

It hasn't failed yet.

The warm glow they get inside when the self-righteous neurotransmitters kick in outweighs all the slaughtered innocents from the Siberia to Cambodia. What's the mystery? It is all about them - their power, their high mightiness, their self-regard. Consequences are for corporeal beings, they are Angels of Light.

Was his hame "Wu" who brought this up? A clerk for ginsberg, I believe--and why did no one add this info during the hearings so another dagger could be thrown into the heart of the demnuts?

What the Rats didn't want us to know is that she was searched by a female detective.

There is one more thing the Democrats can do to make their defeat complete; filibuster or delay the Alito nomination beyond the "State of the Union Message".

Imagine the Judge and his wife sitting with the First Lady at the SOTU. Bush introduces the couple making some comment about how the hearing was so vituperative and that Alito's appointment is now being held up for no good reason. The Republicans rise to their feet in raucous applause while the cameras pan to Democrats sitting on their hands faces twisted in hate.

That would be priceless.

I hope ya'll heard that the magazine piece that Kennedy read at the Alito hearings regarding CAPS was satire! The editor of the magazine at that time has come forward and told everyone that.
