Here is another little tidbit I know you will like:


"Moreover, Justice Thomas is one of the five right-wing Republican justices who handed the presidency to Republican candidate George W. Bush in Bush v. Gore, 531 U. S. 98 (2000), the most outrageously partisan decision of the Supreme Court in history, a decision in which, as Vincent Bugliosi has written, "the Court committed the unpardonable sin of being a knowing surrogate for the Republican party instead of being an impartial arbiter of the law." Bugliosi, None Dare Call It Treason, The Nation, at 11 (Feb. 5, 2001)."

A former prosecutor like Bugliosi has as much knowledge of constitutional law as your typical tax attorney.

Yes - sounds really bad until you go back to the beginning and how Gore's team seemed to have already set it up with the Florida Supreme Court to have them hand him the Presidency in spite of it's contradiction to existing laws and the facts...I guess the left-wingers will be only too happy to have the perspective taken away from their claims/whines/moans that they couldn't pull a fast one with the highest office in the land. Doesn't seem to stop them from trying some more - I get the feeling that they know that they are on slippery ground and have to make some outrageous attempts to subvert the system even more if they want to survive as a viable (take that with a grain of salt) party..
