Leahy on Alito

Here is a terrific statement from Senator Patrick Leahy.

Alito a Threat to Our Fundamental Rights


My favorite line is this:

In the days immediately following those attacks [9/11], I said, and I continue to believe, that the terrorists win if they frighten us into sacrificing our freedoms and what defines us as Americans.


He seems to be one of the few prominent democrats that realizes Alito's nomination has little to do with abortion.

I wonder what kind of presidential candidate he'd make.
