Bizarre committee vote confirms Alito
In a surprising turn of events, the Senate Judiciary Committee has voted to send the Alito nomination to the Senate floor... on a strictly party-line vote!!!
I mean, what are the odds that such a principled and deeply philosophical balloting process would just happen to coincide exactly with partisan affiliation? Astonishing.
