NY Times calls for filibuster of Alito
Wow. NY Times is getting a little hardcore: Senators in Need of a Spine.
Today’s editorial calls out Dem senators to fight against Alito, someone “whose entire history suggests that he holds extreme views about the expansive powers of the presidency and the limited role of Congress.”
The editorial argues that even if there’s no chance of winning, now is the time to fight for principle.
A filibuster is a radical tool. It's easy to see why Democrats are frightened of it. But from our perspective, there are some things far more frightening. One of them is Samuel Alito on the Supreme Court.
Burn! Make sure to read the whole piece.
