For The Legal Beagles Running About…Spend Some Time Here

There are some pretty interesting items here.

Harry Reid’s lying hypocrisy revealed … again. From The Volokh Conspiracy:

Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) was among those who denounced yesterday’s Supreme Court ruling upholding the Federal Partial Birth Abortion Act. Commenting on the decision, Reid said “A lot of us wish that Alito weren’t there and O’Connor were there,” indicating his desire that there has been a fifth vote to invalidate the statute, as Justice O’Connor had provided the fifth vote to invalidate Nebraska’s partial-birth abortion ban in Stenberg v. Carhart.

What is curious about Reid’s statement, as NPR and some news outlets have noted, is not Reid’s criticism of Alito — Reid opposed Alito’s confirmation — but the fact that Reid supported, and voted for, the federal statute upheld in yesterday’s decision! . . .

Typical liberal, always trying to play both sides of the issue. Political charlatans like Reid will never fall under the full weight of the lamestream media.
