Senator COBURN defended Judge Alitos record by noting that Judge Alito ruled for the "little guy" in a list of 13 cases. Judge Alitos record. however. includes almost 500 published and unpublished opinions. Thirteen is not very many out of 500. Knight Ridder conducted a survey of Judge Alitos published opinions. They concluded that: although Judge Alitos opinions are rarely written with obvious ideology. hes seldom sided with a criminal defendant. a foreign national facing deportation. an employee alleging discrimination or consumers suing big business. I am also concerned by Judge Alitos responses to privacy questions at the Judiciary Committee hearings which conflict with his past statements. In his 1985 job application.
