For too long the Justices on the Supreme Court's motto has been "I'll give up my robe when you can tear it away from my cold, dead, decrepit body". It has indeed looked more like the Supreme Convalescent Center. Justice Sandra Day O’Connor announced her resignation. Soon Chief Justice William Rehnquist will do the same. This gives president Bush a chance to shape the court for many years to come. The Rehnquist vacancy would not be as critical because we would only be trading a conservativ...

Senator Patrick "Leaky" Leahy said he would vote against Judge Roberts if he does not pass his litmus test on abortion. "Just as you would not have a justice nominee who said, `Well I wouldn't consider Brown vs. Board of Education settled law,' I don't see how they could get confirmed," Leahy said. "I don't see how somebody who said that they didn't consider Roe vs. Wade settled law ... I don't see how they get confirmed." In other words to Senator Leahy opposing abortion is on the same l...

From the Drudge Report... President Bush has chosen federal appeals court judge John Roberts, 50, as his nominee to the Supreme Court... Roberts: 'We continue to believe that Roe v. Wade was wrongly decided and should be overruled'...'YOUTH, INTELLECT, TEMPERAMENT, JUDICIAL PHILOSOPHY'... ABORTION WAR AFTER BUSH PICKS... ROBERTS I am absolutely stoked. I was so worried that President Bush would pick someone who would be an easy confirm just to avoid the battle. President Bush has not l...

Isn't That Where Grandma Used To Live? In the Kelo Vs. The City of New London case, the Supreme Court geezers voted 5-4 to turn property rights in this country on its head. Conservatives along with Liberals are all condemning the ruling. It gives municipalities pretty much cart-blanche in seizing property from anyone for any reason, as long as it increases the tax base. That is all that is required to satisfy the new interpretation of “public good”. The Constitution does allo...

Once again the Congressional Democrats, and the press are showing selective indignation with their hand ringing and howls of protest demanding the head of Karl Rove. This all stems from the Valerie Plame CIA investigation. Once again Democrats are pointing fingers at the Republicans while completely excusing and even defending those on their side who have engaged in much worse leaking with much greater consequences. Leaking information is Democrat's favorite pastime. They constantly use it t...

If you thought the cresent was either an oversite or just a coinsidence here is proof it is an intentional tribute to Islam. From ZombieTime "Etaoin Shrdlu" has generated an azimuthal equidistant world map centered on the location of the Flight 93 Memorial which seems to indicate that the crescent is oriented toward Mecca. What is next, are they going to name whatever memorial is erected in New York "The Osama Bin Laden Memorial Towers?" How about renaming existing memorials...

He invented the Internet! He reinvented Himself! Now he has invented Algore TV! If you love watching test patterns you’ll really love the nonstop excitement of Algore TV. Its al Gore al the time!

President Bush today used a recess appointment to install John Bolton as Ambassador to the United Nations. The Senate Democrats had been using stalling tactics to indefinitely delay his confirmation. There were enough votes in the Senate to confirm him if it were not for the underhanded tactics of the Democrats. President Bush was right in putting Bolton in his rightful place at the UN. Senate Democrats obviously were not at all pleased by the move. Harry Reid of Nevada the Sena...
