Will Obama appoint someone more liberal than Stevens?

Stevens
Stevens described himself as "pretty darn conservative" in a 2007 interview for the New York Times magazine, and yet everyone else on the court is to his political right. Stevens' retirement spells doom for liberal reform, let alone radical change, coming from the Supreme Court in the future.

A Rant Against the Supreme Court Decision on "Free Speech"

There have been quite a few warning shots fired this past week. Kennedy's seat is lost. Healthcare reform is lost. Our rights as free speaking people will now be drowned out by the Tsunami of Corporate money. Be afraid. Be very afraid.

Free Speech!

Now that the supreme court has declared corporations the equivalent of people with hearts and minds, are you happy? Or is this a back door route to 1984 all over again?

Wow! Is there consensus here between Left and Right that we have overcriminalized our society? We have among the world's largest proportional prison population for sure. Too much criminalization?

G. Gordon Liddy one-ups himself

G. Gordon Liddy, on Sotomayor: "Let's hope that the key conferences aren't when she's menstruating or something, or just before she's going to menstruate. That would really be bad. Lord knows what we would get then." Is this A) amusing or B) infuriating?

Court should throw out amputee settlement, risks were labeled

This woman got a shot for nausea, and lost her arm as a result. The drug was FDA approved and the risks were clearly labeled. She was awarded $6.7M. It's now a supreme court case. "lawyers for Wyeth and the government said Levine's case should have been thrown out of court because Phenergan has been approved by the federal Food and Drug Administration and its label adequately warned about its risks. FDA approval serves as a shield against liability lawsuits under state law in such cases, they said..." The other side says "Wyeth never made clear to the FDA how dangerous IV push could be."

Supreme Court:Putting abortion drs on "wanted" posters is too far

Do you agree? Try not to let your stance on abortion influence your vote. The court refused to hear an appeal on the prior ruling, which ruled that putting individual doctor's faces on old-fashioned "Wanted" posters incited violence against specific doctors. The abortion protestors claimed free speech. Click link for details.
