    Chief Justice William Rehnquist is gone...

    Sad news this morning. The chief Justice of our Supreme Court, William Rehnquist has lost his battle with thyroid cancer. This amazing man, who insisted on continuing to fulfill his pledge to his country into his 80th year, and in spite of an illness that might have sidelined a younger man of lesser will, surely will be missed.

    Now we have TWO vacancies on the big bench.

    We can hope that they will be filled without the mindless delays caused by wrangling to see who can make the most political hay out of the situation, but I'm afraid those hopes will be futile...

    It's a crying shame when we can't count on our elected officials to act in the best interests of their country rather than their own personal ambition.
    Maybe it's time to un-elect some of them.
