Supreme Court Justices Roberts and Alito

WASHINGTON—Although three years have passed since both men joined the court, Chief Justice John Roberts, 54, and Associate Justice Samuel Alito, 59, said they still feel foolish whenever more senior justices refer to cases decided "way before" they joined the court. "One time—one time—I asked what World-Wide Volkswagen v. Woodson was, and Stevens goes off on this tear about me still being in diapers when Earl Warren was inventing Miranda rights," Alito said of the 88-year-old justice appointed by President Gerald Ford. "God, sorry I didn't get my law degree before World War I, geez." According to court clerks, the two younger justices occasionally get so frustrated with the constant teasing that they take a bus to go spend time with their friends in the 9th Circuit.

Oh, how cute. Well, they will be getting two (at least) new appointees in the next few months. Those appointees will most likely be nice young ones that Alito and Roberts can play computer games with.

Let us pray for the good health of the Supremes because we sure don't want someone like thurgood marshall in there again. The guy who single-handedly wrecked the prison system and watered down law enforcement and sentencing. He was famous for letting violent prisoners back out on the streets if the prisons weren't comfy enough for them.

Marshall was dropped on this country in 1967. Following that, the violent crime rate doubled through 1980 when a tough-on-crime president (Reagan) combined with an increasingly Conservative Supreme Court caused a steady drop of 23% through 1996. From 1996 through 2006, the violent crime rate dropped from 637 per 100,000 residents to 473 per 100,000 residents, a decline of 17.6%. Hopefully, o'guano will be long-gone before another Justice will be appointed.

President Obama will, most certainly, appoint at least two Supreme Court Justices (John Paul Stevens age 89, and Ruth Bader-Ginsburg age 76). Maybe more. The average age of the current Court is 69.

Ah, yes, another little treasure from the same highly credible source that has reported the massive number of deaths occuring in this nation but ignored by the mainstream media! Here is the link:

And if so I hope the congress and Senate never confirm the first pick he makes. It will send a message that we do not need another mistake from this President.
