I'm totally sober, my thinking is clear as a bell. First things first
Bob. I'm anxious to listen in on the Alito hearing, I presume they
will be available via radio and TV as were Chief Justice Roberts 'hearings.

After the hearing, we will better know how to grade Judge Alito as to
his suitability to sit on the Supreme Court. Hopefully, no new Supreme
Court vacancies will occur until The Bush Administration has move on,
and we have a new President.

Regards,

LelandJ
