Hey Boys and Girls

"Find me a TV Camera" - Chuckles Schumer

New York Sen. Charles E. Schumer, a powerful member of the Democratic leadership, said Friday the Senate should not confirm another U.S. Supreme Court nominee under President Bush “except in extraordinary circumstances.”

“We should reverse the presumption of confirmation,” Schumer told the American Constitution Society convention in Washington. “The Supreme Court is dangerously out of balance. We cannot afford to see Justice Stevens replaced by another Roberts, or Justice Ginsburg by another Alito.”  [Schumer to fight new Bush high court picks]

Suppose Stewart or Ginsburg, who has cancer issues, kicked the bucket today, god forbid, and Chuckles made good on his threat to deny Bush an appointment. We'd have is a 5-3 court, at worst. That's 5 Americans v. 2 leftwing reprobates, and a wishy-wash Kennedy. If that happened I'd hope the court would  hear every lightning rod case on the books next term..  Roe, the Commerce Clause, McCain-Feingold, Environment, OSHA, private probperty, prayer in school, state anti-gun laws ...  all of them.  I like the odds.

Try putting this up the Chuckles shoot and post his number on the web. That ought to keep him busy and out of the way for awhile! :D

So Juice, does the G-Pod work?

If Congress would just do its job and pass strong legislation, this wouldn't be an issue. Instead, they leave it for the courts to decide the issues of the day.

This turns the judiciary into an unelected "sub-legislature" (I just made up that word, but it says what I mean). This is why judicial appointments have gotten so political lately.

The solution is for us, the citizens, to hold our elected representatives' feet to the fire and make them pass strong laws again. Unfortunately, that's not going to happen. We're too busy watching "Just For Laughs".
