Scary Day Indeed: Bush Names (Sc)Alito To Replace O'Connor

President Bush has decided to completely cave-in to his right-wing, evangelical base and has chosen Judge Samuel Alito to be his new Supreme Court nominee. Alito has been the "wet dream" choice of Christian conservatives for years. He was appointed to the 3rd Circuit Court of Appeals in New Jersey 15 years ago at the age of 40 by President George H.W. Bush. He is brilliant, Catholic and extremely conservative, a "Scalia-lite." This has earned him the nickname Scalito.

Amusing (and scary) that Bush would pick Halloween to name such a nominee in the wake of Rosa Parks death.
