What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that police stripped searched her…..

What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that police stripped searched her…..

What would you do if your 10-year-old daughter came home and said that the police stripped searched her?   Any normal person would be outraged.

But in Doe v. Groody - as if to preview things to come under the lash of Republican justice - Michael Chertoff, current Secretary of Home Land Security, and Samuel Alito, proposed appointee to the U.S. Supreme Court, ruled police could strip search of a 10-year-old kid even without a warrant.  

Alito, always the Ivy League space cadet, asked a profoundly naive question to one of the lawyers arguing the case.   ''Why do you,” Alito queried incredulously, “keep bringing up the fact that this case involves the strip search of a 10-year-old child?"  The response should have been, “Precisely because it involved the strip search of a 10-year-old kid, you ditz!”

Ah…but there’s more to come from the Republican Gulliverian yahoos who now control every level of the government.  Republican justice can be a flicked thing, one rule for the common man another for the king!
