So the Republicans have decided to oppose Obama's nominee for the Supreme Court BEFORE they know who it is? Who's handling the PR for the Republicans? Dick Cheney?

on the Supreme Court. This is something we haven't seen in awhile. Let's just
hope the president is better at picking a justice than the justices were at
picking a president." --Jay Leno

Iraq: Don't Let The Door Hit You In The Ass
Iraq's government Monday ruled out allowing U.S. combat troops to remain in Iraqi cities after the June 30 deadline for their withdrawal, despite concern that Iraqi forces cannot cope with the security challenge following a resurgence of bombings in recent weeks.

Lisa,
Is there some inconsistency in the US cardinal's criticism of the invitation
which has been extended by Notre Dame to President Obama? I am not a Catholic,
but I don't believe the church condones the practice of capital punishment. If
that is, indeed, a fact, then why wasn't there a similar outcry when President
Bush spoke at commencement and received an honorary degree? The state of Texas
put to death more people while Bush was governor than under any other governor
in the nation's history.
I'm not criticizing the church for it's position on abortion. I am just
wondering why there is such controversy now and not then.

Great points.
One word comes to mind: hypocrisy.
We should listen to our forefathers on separation of church and state.
If the Catholic Church or any religion actively projects their beliefs into the political arena, I say, "Let them pay taxes!"

"Are you
getting tired of swine flu hysteria? I think the media has done a hell of a job
scaring the hell out of everybody in this country. I mean, planes have been
diverted, people don't touch elevator buttons, proms have been canceled. At
middle schools all across the country, students and teachers have been warned
not to kiss during sex. And all for what? As of this morning, 331 confirmed
cases worldwide. I've had more people than that in my Jacuzzi." --Bill Maher
