fresh from empowering meglomaniacs everywhere to embrace eminent domain, sandra day o'connor, that pixyish tweedle-dee supreme court injustice, is retiring. well, fancy that! i guess it isn't that much a surprise considering that another iconic figure of incompetence, the late, cerebrally-adled ronald reagan nominated her in the first place.
i don't know about you, but i haven't felt "served" by our supreme injustices in a very long time. they may be the third branch of our right-wing, fundamentalist-christian government, but their attitudes certainly reek of arrogance, elitism, and partisan politics. remember Thurgood Marshall? the Honorable Justice Marshall was perhaps the last person to claim a seat on the supremes who embodied the integrity, impartiality, fairness, and sense of Justice that served the common person's good. a truly great judge who knew that his position, although elevated, was to SERVE the people. of course, Marshall was replaced by a pillar of idiocy, clarence thomas, whose most famous actions seem to be his butt-grabbing antics on Laura Hill. butt, i digress...
advanced age may translate to wisdom, but not always. sometimes it just makes for people who are completely out of touch with the rest of society, and those types should spend as much time perfecting their gardening skills and bingo as possible and just drop out from anything that can negatively affect society, really. certainly there are many persons of advanced age that contribute their wisdom and experience, but they seem to still be in touch with life in the current decade.
i think our current crop of 'supreme' justices should be at bingo rather than affecting the world we must live in; they're completely out of touch with society, the common person's struggles, american culture, and anything that occurred after 1956…and it shows.
how? you ask; well, please lets not forget that we have sandra-day-o, souter, thomas, and the rest for the greatest travesty of justice in the past quarter century. they are to blame for the elevation of this moron
to the US presidency in the first place, which of course resulted in 9-11, our current economic dumpster dive, the 1984-ish "patriot" act, the lie that is the iraq war [resulting in 100,000 iraq deaths, nearly 2,000 US soldier deaths, and 5,000 US soldiers who are disabled for life], and the dilemma o'connor has just ignited: the above said moron, who also happens to be a draft-dodger, liar, murderer, and bigot, gets to pick the person, or ignorant crackpot who will replace her. she's only 75, she works in DC, she can see things are a mess--and she couldn't wait 2 more years to step down? o'conner's actions are unbecoming of a person of her supposed intellectual superiority; even rinquest is holding on by a thyroid tendon, yet i guess the gardening and bingo o'connor is missing out on is beckoning louder than justice and common sense. well, i guess good riddance.
of course, the white house probably already has the next supreme nomination set to go, but while here, as a US citizen, and person who values justice and liberty, i'd like to offer up my 2-cents. i think the choice is obvious; the justice to fill o'connor's shoes should be another woman, perhaps a misunderstood minority, a champion of human rights, but most importantly, they must be in touch with our 21st century world, able to make just and fair decisions that serve the common man. this can only mean one person:
…Michael Jackson. the only person who could fill o'connor's shoes with dignity! don't laugh…he is in fact more IN TOUCH with the world than any of the current supreme court corpses. i also think he'd look fantastic in that black robe.
have a great day.
