Senate Democrats Intend To Allege Judge Samuel A. Alito Is Sexist And Racist!

Democrats on the US Senate Judiciary Committee have said they plan to call witnesses to question the integrity of US Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito during confirmation hearings. The witness list includes experts on constitutional law and civil rights, but will also include John Flym, who argued a 2002 case before the US Court of Appeals for the Third Circuit involving mutual fund managers with which Alito had accounts.President Bush & Judge AlitoAlito has been criticized for failing to recuse himself, Alito was not required to recuse himself, but had promised to do so during his confirmation hearings as an appellate judge. Democrats also plan to call a journalist who had reported Alito's association with the now-defunct interest group Concerned Alumni of Princeton, that had criticized Princeton's affirmative action policies and encouraged more legacy admissions. Judiciary Committee member Sen. Ted Kennedy (D-MA), called the group "anti-black" and "anti-women," but another member of the committee Sen. John Cornyn (R-TX) said the witnesses show that Democrats are desperate for critical fodder. Senate Democrats intend to zero in on Alito’s alleged enthusiastic membership to an organization, they will charge, that was sexist and racist! They hope to tie Alito to Concerned Alumni of Princeton (CAP). Alito will testify that he joined CAP as a protest over Princeton policy that would not allow the ROTC on campus.
