Yes, you are reading this right. The one, the only, Sentator Robert C. Byrd is a hero this week. Besides being a former KKK member, and the only one old enough to remember both Roman history and the writing of the US Constitution, he also is one of two Democratic senators to vote Yea on Alito (so far), and the only high profile one to do so. In his speech, he said that Alito was well qualified, no matter how conservative he was. Glad he has no litmus test.


This guy is a hack...because this is sick and scary:

BURLINGTON, Vt. — A controversial ruling for a sex offender in Vermont was changed Thursday from 60 days to 3 to 10 years after a judge received pressure to extend the punishment.

When Judge Edward Cashman sentenced Mark Hulett, 34, to 60 days in prison for sexually abusing a child, he said he wanted to make sure the man got treatment that would be available while he was behind bars.

And now, a follow up to last week, Al Gore is now attacking Stephen Harper, accusing him of conections to 'Big Oil.'
