Reply #10: my letter to Barack

[yellowdogmi]

Dear Senator Obama,
I am writing today to urge you to lend any support you can to the defeat of Mr. Alito’s nomination to the Supreme Court. I am convinced that his support for the Unitary Executive theory will undermine the checks and balances created by our founding fathers. Please support any effort to derail this nomination including support of a filibuster if necessary. While I am not a scholar of the senate I believe that you have several options to support this request such as voting against cloture or abstaining from the vote so the majority party cannot reach the required number of votes. I will leave that up to your discretion but want to convey my dissatisfaction with this nominee and the remarkable lack of candor he displayed to the Judiciary committee. Please oppose this man with every fiber of your being. Thank you.
