Christian Science Monitor: On abortion, a nuanced stand. In 3 of 4 cases, Supreme Court nominee Alito voted on the side of abortion rights....Now that Barabas conservatives have overturned long standing principle regarding how judicial nominees past statements are viewed, I can only assume many of them will call for Alito to witdraw before a hearing that can only embarass the nominee and President Bush.
For example, of the four abortion cases in which he participated as an appeals court judge, he voted on the pro-choice side in all but one. A 1995 Alito vote striking down a Pennsylvania abortion restriction in particular is raising eyebrows among some legal scholars.
