Aaaarrrrgggg!
Listening to Comrade Schumer just now, speaking about the Alito appointment. Comrade Schumer is introducing the main theme of the Commie symphony: "We need a judge who will unite, not divide."
Think about that for a minute. In the first place, O'Connor didn't unite America. Loyal Americans didn't trust her, and Communists gave her faint praise while smirking behind her back, hoping (with considerable success) to pull her toward their side.
In the second place, and more importantly, why in the hell should a judge -- or any leader -- unite America with its enemies? What a monstrously peculiar and arrogant notion. Vidkun Quisling would understand it just fine.
