Far left media campaign against Judge Alito begins.

IndependentCourt.org is currently running cable TV ads opposing the nomination of Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court. It describes itself as "a broad coalition of groups."

Unh huh.

A narrow ad hoc advertising cost-pooling coalition of far left organizations dedicated to racial, homosexual, environmental, abortion, wacko gun control and other special interest pleading is more like it.

The acceptance into its ranks of the National Lawyers Guild, a recognized Communist front organization during the Cold War years, pretty much tells you all you need to know about IndependentCourt.org.

If these organizations are against Judge Alito, what person repulsed by idiotic (i.e., left-wing) race, abortion-as-sacrament, and sexual identity organizations can fail to support him?

If this is a “broad” coalition, then the Intergalactic Source of Truth is a blog devoted to needlepoint and organic gardening.
