Counting the Costs of Clintonism
The debacle of this president’s administration is both a cause and a symptom of the decline of American values. Unless Congress impeaches him, that decline will go on unchecked. An eminent jurist surveys the damage and assesses the chances for the recovery of our culture.

But not, alas, to take the floor for 18 hours, as you so wisely recommended.
No doubt it will be a highly civil and extremely proper speech. Politeness first and foremost. Otherwise, there go the cocktail party invitations!

Session's being out on the political limb alone regarding the SCOTUS nominations by Democrats is sadly a usual occurance. Shelby did manage to issue a critical statement about her political nature versus her legal abilities, but I'm not aware of any Republican ready, willing and able to lead a filibuster charge on her as previously suggested. Again, these congresspersons all need to be disected and dealt with by taxpayer-voters in each state, since they're all guilty of DC's LET'S PARTY political syndrome, all at the expense/detriment all of us wishing to prevent this country from going off of the cliff's deep edge!!!!!

Are you serious?
How do you expect a free people to govern itself if they cannot demonstrate the fortitude to uphold the rigors of political discourse?
Democrats and liberal justices are, in your view, worthy of going to hell?
Who are you to make this judgment? What kind of a self-important freak are you?
Al Adab| 8.6.10 @ 9:41AM
Just another self-anointed elitist.
