Senator Edward M. Kennedy Supports Fillibuster
From Senator Edward M. Kennedy's Online Office:
"Other than voting to send our men and women to war, there is no more important vote in the Senate than our vote on a Supreme Court nominee. This is a vote of a generation and a test of conscience. Judge Alito does not share the values of equality and justice that make this country strong. He does not deserve a place on the highest court of the land.We owe it to future generations of Americans to oppose this nomination. If Judge Alito is confirmed, he will serve on the court long after President Bush leaves office, and the progress of half a century on the basic rights of all Americans is likely to be rolled back. He's the wrong Justice for justice and the rule of law in America."
Dear Senator Kennedy,
As one of your Massachusetts constituents, I am urging you to put an end to talk of a fillibuster. Many prominent, intelligent Democrats who have sound knowledge of Judge Alito have correctly described him as a worthy, mainstream candidate. I hope that you can find it within yourself to put your politics aside and consider the matter at hand.
This is not the time or the place for grandstanding.
Sincerely,
Andrew W. Bryden
I urge everyone to make their opinion on this vote (pro or con) known to their representatives.
