A History Of Bitterness

The country has reacted almost as predicted to Justice Sam Alito's "not true" mumble during Obama's premiere SOTU speech, but this shouldn't have come as a shock considering the Alito holds a grudge tighter than just about anyone.

Just days before Obama's inauguration, he paid a visit to the members of the Supreme court at the request of Chief Justice Roberts. Guess who didn't bother to show up?

The absence of Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr., who was at the court Wednesday morning for arguments in two cases, was a mystery. He has, however, voiced lingering anger over Senate Democrats, including Obama and Biden, who voted against his confirmation three years ago. When walking on Capitol Hill, Alito has said, he crosses to the far side of the street whenever he nears the Senate Office Building.


This paints a crystal clear picture of the type of man Alito is and adds relevant context to what he did on Wednesday night. This man is not fit to be a member of the Supreme Court, as he not only lacks the ability to keep his feelings in check in everyday life and has shown the entire world that he is unable to do so in a professional setting.
