There is no Justice in politics!

“You’re so deep in the closet that you are finding presents” –Family Guy (Thanks Tivo)

How can you not like politics? In one month there have been so many interesting developments and backdoor deals culminating with Harriet Miers stepping down and possibly tomorrow part of the inner sanctum getting indicted.

By the way I don’t want anyone ever again to try to push that falsity that the court is separate from political pressure and influence. Yes once on the court the judges are away from influence but to get on you have to nowadays be leaning heavily left or right, middle of the road prospects do not make it on the court. Do peeps even care if the person making it on the court is the best candidate or the best candidate that agrees with them?

Apparently, listening to the case before them and judging it based on its merits is not a requirement for the Supreme Court. Wouldn't it be nice to hear someone say something along the lines of, despite my own political and religious views, I will listen to the case and attempt to rule with as little prejudice as possible. I will rule based on what is best for the country as a whole, not just what I myself believe. Ah, dream worlds are nice.

About Me

My photo
Cali-J ueber alles in der Welt. Some think that I am mean; (I call them friends), in fact I am not that mean. What I am is sarcastic and dry to the sandpaper level. I have friends that I have never said a kind word to their face, but I praise to the ends of the earth to anyone I know and will defend them to the end. That’s just how I roll! My boys know that I am down for them, my girls know that no matter what I will keep them safe (and occasionally flirt with them [If you are a female friend of mine and think I haven’t flirted with you it just means you didn’t notice, it was extremely subtle or…not yet ]). No one is safe from my sarcasm even my own parents; hence of course as a kid I spent a significant amount of time in punishment. I treat people with respect if I think they deserve it – everyone starts off with the same amount of respect from me (a lot). You don’t need to earn my respect; you have to keep my respect.
