One Florida Senator Figures It Out
In an unusually good move by “Waffling Willie”, the senior senator from Florida, Bill Nelson, has decided to vote against Samuel Alito. Nice meme in this Miami Herald article:
U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson said Tuesday he’ll vote against Judge Samuel Alito Jr.’s nomination to the U.S. Supreme Court, saying he believes the jurist would “tilt the scales of justice in favor of big government over the average person.”
The Big Government threat being used against a Republican appointee is an unexpected touch that should be talked up. A dictatorship is the ultimate in Big Government, and that’s what the Unitary Executive Theory really advocates.
Of course, the junior senior, Rove sockpuppet Mel Martinez, will do as he is told and vote for Alito.
