Seattle PI's Love Affair with Abortion Continues

He is a brilliant ideologue whose presence on the court would make much of the nation ache for the very justice he would replace, the court's great reconciler of differences, Sandra Day O'Connor.
And this...


Long before al-Qaida, there was Alito, then an assistant to the U.S. solicitor general, writing a 1984 memo proclaiming that government officials should be able to order domestic wiretaps without fear of legal retaliation by their subjects.

And finally this...

While favoring executive powers, Alito's judicial record also indicates great deference to the business sector. Again, such pro-corporate attitudes have played a role in unraveling the country's ability to act on a sense of the common good.


All in the service of abortion.
