The Supreme Court decison on photo ID was a hideous miscarriage of justice. The legistlature of Indiana chose to impose a poll tax . . . long since outlawed . . . with the sole purpose to be to unnecessarily harass poor voters . . . by requiring photo ID's. The example of nuns being denied the right to vote in the Indiana primary shows exactly where that right wing law was coming from.

The job of the Court is to reign in pinheaded legislators when in their ignoranc they overstep and violate constitutinoal rights.

Crawl back in your hole, jerk.

Sen. Obama's support among working, hard-working Americans, white Americans, is weakening again

As opposed, I guess, to Obama's wide-spread support by lazy, shiftless, irresponsible, uppity non-white Americans? Just shut up lady. The first rule when you're stuck in a hole is STOP SHOVELING!!

We're still experiencing the woes of a nation led by someone who doesn't GET IT. Dubbya didn't get it more than any other American president ever.

But Hillary has some real problems with understanding and she has a tin ear.

Her vote to Authorize the Use of Military Force in Iraq is a perfect example. She voted without reading the NIE. Then she chose to believe George W. Bush. What - did she just roll off the turnip truck?? Her vote means she was either dumb enough to believe Bush, or she was so calculating that she cast a vote she KNEW to be wrong for political expediency. Either way should disqualify her from being President. Especially when she still can't admit her mistake. We've got a president like that now . .. not a good thing.

Another example: she signed a pledge not to "campaign OR participate" in the Michigan and Florida primaries. Participate means to partake of or share in. She's supposed to be a lawyer. Does she not know that pledging to not participate means she pledges not to accept delegates picked by that process she pledged to not participate in?

Again . . . she's either WAY too dumb . . . or a WEASEL. We don't need anymore weasels, thank you very much.

The %age by which Democrat Hillary Clinton beats Democrat Barack Obama among white Democrats tells jack shit about what the numbers in November will be.

Based on the number of newly registered voters and independents and/or moderate Republicans that have flocked to vote in Democratic primaries, we may well be looking at a BLOW OUT of John McCain by Obama in November. A blow out that is simply not feasible given the electorates continuing (and apparently valid) distrust of Hillary's ethics and truthfulness.

The Guardian had quite a story on the $5 BILLION development planned for the Baghdad Embassy complex: See: http://www.guardian.co.uk/world/2008/may/06/iraq

We don't have money for New Orleans, but we'e got a shitload of dough for a stupid fucking golf course in Iraq.

Thanks again George, Don, Dick et al., for the great job you've done on behalf of our enemies.

Keep up that mouth breathing, will you, it slows down the drooling.

The idea that Kobe is the MVP is absurd after seeing the Sletics/Cavs series. If anyone on the Cavs had given James just a little help offensively he would have beated the Celts at home in Game 7.

Oh, and let's make that 2 trillion dollars (yep - $2,000,000,000,000.00) poured down a rathole in the desert by the first retarded president of the United States.

Regarding Barack's story: my father was in the 95 Infantry as a technical sergeant. Because he spoke German, his CO used him as a translator, and, yes, he too was inside Buchenwald. Not only would he never talk about it, he never rode in a German car.

WTF, Steve. Better get back on your medications. Anyone stupid enough to vote to Authorize the Use of Military Force in Iraq without READING the goddam NIE isn't smart enough to be president.

Ditto anyone who signs a pledge to neither "campaign nor participate" in the early bird primaries and then doesn't understand what she signed.

They say she's a lawyer. You'd think she'd learn to read the fine print.

Oh, and thanks, Hillary, for pissing in the soup.

You're the kind of kneejerk party functionary who would allow US troops to die for the next 100 years for a war that never had to happen wihtout opening your mouth.

Sit down, shut up and wait for Liddy to be retired when she gets her wide ass kicked in November.

Obama is going to crush the senescent senior senator from Arizona . . . and it'll be even worse in the House adn the Senate.

Can Dubbya spell J-A-I-L-T-I-M-E??

Brilliantly played, Mr. Neill.

And McCain = Grampa Simpson

Note to Elephantman: give it up.

was reduced to quoting from Washington Post stories and the legal memoranda from discredited torture-lover John Yoo. Hats off to the 5 rational members of the Supreme Court, especially Justice Anthony Kennedy. In August of 2006 Kennedy gave the keynote address to the American Bar Association conference in Hawaii, and said the rule of law is binding upon the government and all of its officials. That was talking the talk.

Today he walked the walk in his opinion supporting the Great Writ:

Habeas corpus [is], above all, an adaptable remedy. Its precise application and scope change depending upon the circumstances. . . “the great and efficacious writ, in all manner of illegal confinement” . . . Habeas is not “a static, narrow,formalistic remedy; its scope has grown to achieve its grand purpose”
