There is not much to say about the Supreme Court…yet. The wait continues on who Bush will select as his nominee. The fear though, is that the court will go from mainstream conservatism to Neo Conservative. Sandra Day O’Connor’s departure is especially depressing. She usually voted for increased rights of people and was a fair and open minded Justice.

It’s horrifying to listen to the right continue to demand a candidate who will, in their exact words “roll back rights!”

I also am not jumping at Rehnquist’s statement this week that he has no plans to retire. Well that’s all well and good but the guy is half dead! He is battling cancer and have you seen him?! He looks like a stiff wind would blow him over.

I think the sad fact still remains that Bush will be given the opportunity to nominate at least two new Justices before his term expires.
