it's not that they are corrupt, its that they were the product of what selected them

and the both sides are the same meme continues to be spewed

actions lead to consequences.

Nader said both are the same

Would a court under Al Gore/John Kerry/ Barack Obama have been THIS COURT?

NO.

the old adage is true- you get what you pay for and this court is paid for by the Bush family

so tearing down the current president to get Jeb Bush, how exactly will that change it around???

But bashing Ginsberg makes no sense.
