Be Afraid, Be Very Afraid

This article scares me.

Jeffrey Toobin has written a book about the Supreme Court, and I'm told by a friend who has already read it that "Justice" Sandra Day O'Connor was horrified by the news that Bush had lost Florida in 2000. It seems she had long been an admirer and supporter of Bush.

Her vote in the Supreme Court resulted in Bush being appointed President by the court, ignoring the will of the people.

She got to vote twice for Bush as did four other "Justices" it appears; once at the polls and once in court. Her vote at the polls was about her choice of Bush for President. But so was her vote in court, when it was supposed to be about interpreting the law.

I truly wonder what kind of country my children and grandchildren will live in.
