Happy Days Are Here!!!

John Roberts is now

Chief Justice Roberts

. The Senate voted to confirm him 78-22. The naysayers included the regular suspects (Boxer, Durbin, Kennedy, Kerry, Obama, Schumer).

Hopefully, this will turn things around (meaning, Roe v. Wade among other things) and get the SCOTUS to clean up their act.

I can hardly wait for him to get to work.

It's Gotten Worse

Rita has been

uprgraded to a Catergory 4

and is paced to make landfall on the southwestern coast of Texas (Houston, Galveston, et al) Friday night.

My advice to everyone in the area; pack up what you need to (clothes, hygeine items, medicines, any pet needs, etc) and get the hell out of there.

NOW.

And

Laurence

, this means you as well.
