Supreme Court nominee Samuel Alito said Tuesday he would deal with the issue of abortion with an open mind as a justice, though he defended his 1991 judicial vote saying women seeking abortions must notify their husbands.
In the second day of Senate hearings, Alito also said no president or court is above the law _ even in time of war _ as he addressed questions on presidential powers. The federal judge also faced tough questions about his decisions during 15 years on an appeals court and about his writings on wiretaps.
