mother of all things unholy
WASHINGTON (AP) - A source tells The Associated Press that President Barack Obama is considering California Supreme Court Justice Carlos Moreno and more than five other people as nominees for the Supreme Court.
An official familiar with Obama's decision-making said others include Solicitor General Elena Kagan, Michigan Gov. Jennifer Granholm, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and U.S. Appeals Court judges Sonia Sotomayor and Diane Pamela Wood—people who have been mentioned frequently as potential candidates.

Failing UP. It's the government's way of dealing with incompetence.

Re: mother of all things unholy
Does anyone here see why Democracy is so silly. The "seperation of powers" is laughable.
The supreme court is supposed to be the check on the legislature, the president and legislature are to nominate and confirm the members of the court. The president can veto the legislature, and the legislature can override a veto. That's all fine and good but it's a show. It's the same group of assholes nominating people from said group of assholes in order to oversee their asshole buddies. That's like me getting to pick my brother for lottery commissioner. Guess who will win? |
