Rant for the day! Court-ing Death.

I was catching up on some of my Tivo 'd (don'tcha love it when a proper noun becomes a verb?) shows and was watching The Daily Show 's episode from Tuesday. After the obligatory faux news coverage the guest was some guy that wrote a book called Party of Death . Yes, that's right... there's a party in favor of death... can you guess which one? Actually he was talking about not just a political party, the Dems, but also the Media and the Courts. Now ranting about the whole calling of names for a group of people and slamming the Media is interesting in its own right, but that is a rant for another day... Today I'm here to rant on that last group.. The Courts. During the interview, the author, Ramesh Ponnuru, says that the Courts are a part of the Party of Death due to... wait for it...

I could go on and on about how the 2nd Amendment doesn't grant individuals the right to own guns, how the citizens of this country have no right to any kind of educational guaranty, and how, at least at this point, we have no right to affordable health care. But... That's not what this post is about. So.... What IS it about? { Update #1.... Sorry, I have to interrupt th

What was I thinking? {Sigh}

Forward note: I originally wrote this 2 weeks ago when "The Scene" actually took place. I struggled with posting the story simply because I'm not particularly pleased with the whole thing but decided to go ahead mostly because too many people got a chuckle out the telling of it and after looking back, I find that sharing the story helped me to think about my actions and reactions. Don't think too badly of me....... Please? **************************************************************************************************************************************** I'm torn today. Not from the decision to cover or not cover the fact that it is the 5 year anniversary of 9/11/01 or the ABC debacle. These things are already all over the Internets and my $0.02 probably aren't worth hearing anyway (I am a psycho Consipiracy Theorists after all). No... Today I'm torn over an incident that happened over the weekend. I'm torn between the Mandatory Reporter from
