Swift Boating Liberals

According to a right-wing group's ad, "liberal extremists" hate cops, want to sue them for "doing their job" and support the rights of drug dealers to hide drugs on children. As is noted on Slingshot.org, the ads were done by the same ad agency responsible for the Swift Boat ads in the 2004 election. A note on the charges and the reality:
-

That "liberal extremists" want to sue cops for "doing their job" - The reference is to Alito's advice that "I think the shooting [of an unarmed teenager fleeing the police officer by climbing a fence] can be justified as reasonable...[Because the officer could not know for sure why a suspect was fleeing] I do not think the Constitution provides an answer to the officer's dilemma,"

-

That "liberal extremists" support drug dealers hiding drugs on children - The reference is to Alito's dissent on the strip-search of a 10-year old girl in a drug raid. Another judge on the three-judge panel that voted 2-1 against the constitutionality of the strip-search of the girl and her mother, neither suspects in the raid, Michael Chertoff, the current head of DHS, argued that "under any reasonable reading, the warrant in this case did not authorize the search of the mother and daughter." Is he a "liberal extremist"?

These people are desperate and completely shameless. They have to distort the truth because when they argue on the merits, they are sure to lose. The complaints liberals rightly bring up about Alito are his position on the use of deadly force by police and the ability of the police to strip-search anyone they like, regardless of whether they are relevant to the crime and covered by the warrant (otherwise, their right against unlawful search and seizure would be protected by the Bill of Rights). Yet again the wing-nuts on the right contribute nothing but intolerance and hate to the political dialogue.
