President George W. Bush has nominated Judge Sam Alito for Supreme Court Justice. Drop everything and join the fight. Confirming Judge Alito is an important step towards making the Supreme Court an intrepreter of laws, not a legislative assembly whose edicts can’t be vetoed.

At least not in the Supreme Court, and Harriet Miers finally realized it. Well, perhaps she did all along but didn’t want to tell George W. Bush no when he wanted to nominate her.

Read La Shawn Barber’s post on the late Rosa Park, the woman who [...]

You know the spiel: Blah blah George W. Bush blah blah fundamentalist blah blah evangelicals blah blah theocracy blah blah. It’s all so silly. America isn’t a theocracy, this is a theocracy. How lucky we are to have Saudi Arabia as our close ally in our fight against Islamist aggression.
