Alito’s Dissent in Casey

I'm no lawyer and don't have any vested views on the subject, but with Alito being nominated to the Supreme Court his dissent in the case of Planned Parenthood v. Casey is going to be a highly debated point. Patterico has a detailed analysis of Alito's dissent, concluding

The bottom line is this: Judge Alito’s Casey dissent shows one thing, and one thing only: he is a careful judge and an adherent to the rule of law and a limited role for the courts. It is a dissent of which we can be proud.

No doubt others will have a dissenting view of his dissent.
