Talkin' trash to the garbage around me.

Alito deep throats the Religious Right

Check out this love letter:
Dear Dr. Dobson,

This is just a short note to express my heartfelt thanks to you and the entire staff of Focus on the Family for your help and support in the past few challenging months. I would also greatly appreciate it if you would convey my appreciation to the good people from all parts of the country who wrote to tell me that they were praying for me and for my family during this period.

As I said when I spoke at my formal investiture at the White House last week, the prayers of so many people from around the country were a palpable and powerful force. As long as I serve on the Supreme Court, I will keep in mind the trust that has been placed in me.

I hope that we will have the opportunity to meet personally at some point in the future. In the meantime, my entire family and I hope that you and the Focus on the Family staff know how much we appreciate all that you have done.

Sincerely Yours,
Samuel Alito
Keep in mind how? Sending Christmas cards? Making sure that "Dr." Dobson and his merry band of zealots are on the invite list to all the A-list parties in Georgetown? Or cheerfully paving the way for the fundamentalist Right's Dominionist theocracy by shredding that silly obstruction of a Constitution and stomping women's rights back into the 19th Century?

Alito is what is known in teh pr0n business as a fluffer, and after he's finished blowing Dobson and his ilk, I have a feeling that the rest of us are going to be fucked.

BTW - an excellent resource for keeping track of the Dominionist movement can be found over at Frederick Clarkson's website (he now blogs at Talk To Action, but his website has a great list of links worth exploring).
