30. You lumped ALL the justices as one

Feb 2013

therefore if one correlates that out, Clarence Thomas in your correlation was Thurgood Marshall (as Thomas directly replaced Thurgood)

your words
Justices sit on their asses for six months out of the year dreaming up new ways to dismantle democracy and hand the country over to the members of the Dow Jones Industrial

If you meant only certain justices, then you should have mentioned those.
But you said Justices without specification of anyone different.

and TRUE liberals are President Obama and Elena Kagen and everyone else related to the Obama administration.

I believe you are thinking of radicals or extremists on either side.

But President Obama and Elena Kagen are as big liberals as FDR and JVL and LBJ.

and if one didn't like the Bush's or Reagan's choices, then one shouldn't have NOT voted for Al Gore, John Kerry or Jimmy Carter.

It is that simple.

SCOTUS alone proves Ralph Nader was full of sheet.

Winners only win when they are seated.

Too bad people didn't think of that in 1980 when they sold Jimmy Carter who could easily have won, down the river.

Actions = Consequences.
Thomas, Scalia, Bork, Alito, Thomas, O'Connor, Miers are all direct consequences of the actions.

Without Scalia and Thomas in the first place, 2000 would have been decided after the first
of the two rulings. To go back to Florida and decide it in state Supeme Court of Florida.

(most forget there were 2 rulings the 12/12/2000 made.)

NH was though in Nov. long before it was known who did or didn't win Florida.
