Dumbest soundbite eva. . .
I'm sorry Senator Specter, but this is just stupid (WaPo article):
SPECTER: Well, Judge Alito said a little more than Judge Roberts said. But, then, Judge Roberts ducked super precedents and he ducked super-duper precedents. . .
What's next Senator? Are we going to soon hear about "double-dare, super-duper, no takeback, no erasies precedents"?
Come on, there is no mention of "super-duper" in the Constitution and there damn well better not be any laws that have "super-duper" in their language. So give it up, there's law, precedent and if you really, really, really want something to stick, it's called an Amendment.
Shut up with this "super-duper" precedent stuff. In fact, give up on the "super" precedent stuff too. The Senate is not an elementary school playground Senator Specter, if you want to jump ship and switch sides, take some advice from Nike and "Just Do It!" Stop spreading this nonsense from the Republican soapbox.

PS If anyone Tivo'd this comment by Specter, I'd love to have a copy of it.

» Samuel Alito Is The Man from Flopping Aces
First things first, Hugh Hewitt has a poll running in the same vein as Patrick Ruffini’s polls. You can find it here.
So Alito was nominated and my first thought was if the ACLU hates the man chose by President Bush to serve on the SCOTUS:

Jason, you seem to label yourself as a centrist (correct me if I am wrong). The only difference between you and the religious far right that I can detect is the absence of religion. By the way, what did you think of Ron Paul's speech in the House the other day: http://recap.fednet.net/archive/Buildasx.asp?sProxy=80_hflr102605a_109.wmv,80_hflr102605a_110.wmv,80_hflr102605a_111.wmv&sTime=00:04:25.0&eTime=00:00:32&duration=00:06:04.0&UserName=reppaultx&sLocation=&sExpire=1

Well Av, I'd suggest that if that's what you think, you don't really have that much understanding of what the religious right is all about. I suggest you bone up on that.
As for the speech, we do have to be concerned with what's going on in Syria, and todays UNANIMOUS vote by the U.N. would seem to support that view. Even the other Arab nations chastised Syria for their recent actions that are looking more and more like the assassination of a head of state. Couple that with Syria's other below and above board contributions to terror organizations and destabilization efforts by the Syrians throughout the region, I have to agree with Paul.
As for it being tacked on to the latest Space bill. I'm not a big fan of playing politics like that and putting together mini-omnibus bills. That's the way the game is played though and I'll support sanctions against Syria and I support the American Space program.
Neither of those are really "religious" issues as you seem to want to characterize them.
Good to see you again Avram, welcome back.
