ALITO LIKELY TO BE CONFIRMED DESPITE DISGRACEFUL DEMOCRATS

The Senate Judiciary Committee grilling of Judge Samuel Alito ended today as hearings continued with witnesses for and against the Supreme Court nominee. Alito's composure, grace and judicial intelligence carried the hearings despite an absolutely disgraceful grand standing farce placated by Democrats. Disgusting character assassination statements accusing this fine American,( who has distinguished himself in a lifetime of public service and who's record proves that he is a decent and fair individual), of bigotry, discrimination against women and minorities and outright accusations of lying though the record and testimonies show just the opposite. Through lamenting and whining by Edward Kennedy, Chuck Schumer and Joseph Biden the American people have truly seen the pitiful and insane face of today's Democratic Party. Yes there are many within the party who are good, fair and decent people but the leadership that is before the public especially those on the Judiciary committee gives a sad and disgraceful face to the Democrat Party. There are ingrates on both side of the isle and I say that as a life long Republican but never does the face of the Republican Party shine with disgust and intentional mean spiritness as has been plastered in the news this week by Senate Democrats. There is never ANY excuse for political or even personal reasons to falsely and blatantly attack and character assassinate anyone as Democrats attempted to do this week to Judge Alito. Their total lack of civility and statesmanship was never more evident than when their rhetoric drove Alito's wife to tears. Yet even with this the liberal press has tried to place the blame for the tears on Senator Lindsay Graham who gallantly was defending Alito and apologizing to the judge and his family for the treatment at the mouths of Democrats. Mrs. Alito thanked Graham for his gallantry when Senator Orin Hatch left the proceedings to console Mrs. Alito. If Democrats think that this type of showing endears them to the American people then they are sadly mistaken. The hearings should have been a forum where our Constitution and our Republic shown forth the true spirit of freedom and liberty to the world as we followed the great traditions of our nation to review and confirm a Supreme Court Justice. Instead the country and the world was given a bad taste of liberal anger and deception at its worst and no one is the better for it. Judge Alito will be confirmed and take his place in a long line of some of the most brilliant legal minds to ever walk this planet. For that we can take solace as the Constitutional process once again proves successful despite the disgusting showing of the Democrats.
