Well, the last of the checks and balances are gone. With the retirement of Sandra Day O'Connor and near-certain appointment of an extremist whackjob, we're about to enter some four decades of radical court decisions. We'll see how far the Dems' compromise to save the filibuster gets them, but somehow I doubt they'll stop this train wreck. Really, even moderate Republicans should be worried about the implications of a Supremely Freaky Court.
Light posting will continue, as I'm currently in the process of moving.
