Alliance for Justice warns not to be fooled by the "Alito charm campaign" which is promoting Judge Alito's belief in stare decisis. It is no guarantee that he’ll follow it as a Supreme Court justice.

They have put together a document (pdf) showing what happened during Justice Thomas’s nomination process and what happened after he ascended to the High Court.

    I'm trying to remember .... Thomas .... The one who graduated from law school in 1974, a year after Roe v Wade was decided .... Wasn't he the one who swore at his confirmation hearing that he was pretty sure he'd never discussed Roe v Wade with anyone ever?
