Poor Teddy and Johnny

It is a brand new day on the Supreme Court. We should finally have a court that follows the constitution and doesn't rely on foreign laws and opinions to make their decisions. This is thanks to Alito being confirmed 58-42 last night despite Kennedy and Kerry's attempt at a filibuster which failed 72-25.

The whole thing was just a political stunt to raise money being they knew full well that it never had a chance to pass. It was fun watching the highlights of Kennedy almost having a coronary on the floor of the Senate.

It's a small consolation, but 58-42 is a very low vote for a usually unanimous justice. In fact, it may be the lowest ever.

It is the lowest ever which shows just how far we've come. Sooner or later the Dems will realize they lost two elections in a row, which has consequences and if they don't come up with a different strategy other than obstuction they will lose quite a few more (here's hoping they don't learn!!!).
