Who's to blame for Samuel Alito?
It's easy to point fingers at Democrats who won't filibuster, but they weren't alone in getting us here.
Tim Grieve [2006-01-27]

  • A "no" vote has no meaning?

    They're making a show of a "no" vote but refusing to do the very thing that might give that vote meaning.

    Isn't that the same as saying in a Presidential election "You may as well not vote for the candidate unless he's going to win."?

    As great as my distaste for Alito is, votes cast on the losing side of an issue are never meaningless.
