It's Hammertime!

Facts about Alito:
  • Alito stated in an application for Asst. Deputy Attorney General that he did not believe women had a constitutional right to reproductive choice.

  • As the lone dissenter (disagreeing even with Michael Chertoff, now head of Bush's Homeland Security Department), he would have upheld the strip search of a 10-year-old girl without a valid warrant.

  • Again in dissent, Alito would have upheld a PA law requiring women, in many cases, to notify their husbands before obtaining abortions.

  • In dissent again, Alito said that a congressional law restricting the transfer and possession of machine guns was unconstitutional.

  • While working under Attorney General Edwin Meese, Alito urged President Reagan to veto a bill to protect consumers from used car dealers who roll back odometers -- he said it wasn't the federal government's job to protect citizens' health, safety and welfare!

Let's do what the right ALWAYS does. Get hammering on those keyboards and stop what we don't want!
