Reasons to Oppose Alito

I am not the most law-minded guy, but people whom I trust say Alito is bad news, and follow it up with a bunch of stuff about John Yoo and Little Sally Who and the You-nitary Executive and whatnot.

On the other hand, plainspoken kid oakland has 12 easy to understand reasons to oppose Alito. Without elaboration:
#1: Samuel Alito is a man.
#2: Harriet Miers
#3: the President
#4: The Strip Search
#5: Alito won't get Democratic votes
#6: Alito is not a mainstream judge
#7: It is about Choice.
#8: Diversity on the Court.
#9: Planned Parenthood v. Casey
#10: Sandra Day O'Connor
#11: The law and the court should serve the people, not the other way around.
#12: The consequences.
You can read the explanations at the link above, or here with scores of additional comments.
