AlitoChuckie and Sammie, sittin' in a tree:
Grassley, a Republican and member of the Senate Judiciary Committee, pointed to Alito's "tremendous record of accomplishment and public service" in his positions working for the Department of Justice and as a federal judge, according to a text of Grassley's prepared statement.
"Not only that, Judge Alito has a reputation for being an exceptional and honest judge devoted to the rule of law, and a man of integrity," Grassley said.
However, Grassley said, "some liberal interest groups have come out in full force and have attempted to paint Judge Alito to be an extremist and an activist." Grassley said, "That's what these outside-the-mainstream groups always do - attack individuals who they don't believe will implement their agenda on the Supreme Court."
Well, he's not as colorful as Crazy Doc Coburn, but Grassley's doing the same non-lawyer on Judiciary job: carrying the far-rights water.
