Justice Samuel A. Alito Jr. seemed to enjoy the yucks he got from a friendly audience abroad when he recently mocked foreign leaders by name, and Prince Harry, too, for criticizing the Supreme Court opinion he wrote robbing Americans of their federal constitutional right to abortion.
Most Americans didn't find Alito's schtick at all funny, however. And now voters in Kansas — Kansas! The scarlet-red state that hasn't sent a Democrat to the U.S. Senate since Franklin Roosevelt was first elected — have delivered their verdict on Alito's handiwork: No. By 18 percentage points, they voted this week to keep a right to abortion in their state Constitution.
Take that, Sam.
