[COMMENT by Lorenzo: All-in-all, I'd say this guy sounds like he is ready to put another nail in the coffin of liberty. It also bothers me that if Alito is confirmed, he will be the fifth Catholic justice on the Supreme Court! . . . I see that as quite problematic, because in Roe v. Wade cases (simply by following the dictates of their Catholic primates in Rome and reversing that decision) they go home that night with clear consciences and the applause of the anti-abortion crowd. But if they uphold Rove v. Wade, what will this do to them as religious persons? Catholics are not allowed to have their own opinions on this issue. In fact, the new Pope was the evil genius behind the smear campaign that destroyed Kerry's chances of winning the votes of practicing Catholics. Dark days lie ahead when the majority of people in the country are now quite open about their contempt for our SUPREME Court . . . as they already have for the executive and congressional branches of government.
