While I continue to bask in the usual post State of The Union afterglow

I'm struck by the pathetic attempts by the teabagger wing of the rethuglican party to rally around Alito, who they have cynically placed ona pedestal after his unprofessional and cowardly verbal assault on President Obama.

You know that the teabaggers are only doing this as a ploy to establish their own shallow diversity credentials.  What better way to do that than by rallying around a guy with an asian name?  Below the surface however, the magnitude of their folly becomes apparent, considering Justice Alito doesn't even look Japanese.
