Judge Samuel Alito 2006 confirmation hearings:

“When I get a case about discrimination, I have to think about people in my own family who suffered discrimination because of their ethnic background or because of religion or because of gender. And I do take that into account.”
Just to keep it real, he was answering a very specific question about his background and not judaical decisions.

You left out the part where he said right before that, "It's not my job to bend the law or to change the law to achieve any result."

Something that liberal activist judges do all the time.
