are on a thin thread, a narrow margin of a 5-4 split on the U.S. Supreme Court bench. And its more than privacy cases that hang by a thread (as if that is not enough, alone)!!
Further, its projected that more than one U.S. Supreme Court justice will retire during the next presidential term . . . William H. Rehnquist may retire. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg may retire as well because she is still recovering from cancer surgery. Then there's Justice John Paul Stevens who is in -- at least -- his mid-to-late 80s!
One appointment, only ONE APPOINTMENT may tip the scales back to more than 1/2 century ago . . . all kidding aside. THIS IS DAMN SERIOUS STUFF.
And then of course there's Dumbya who has told the world that he will nominate "another Antonin Scalia" to the U.S. Supreme Court bench. Unbelievable. Or worse (can it get worse? yes, it can), he may nominate persons who are similar to his "recess appointments" of late who cannot separate church and state issues, thump the bible, and spit on Roe v. Wade and other individual/civil rights case law.
VOTE FOR JOHN KERRY!!! Do not let our nation's highest court (U.S. Supreme Court) turn back the clock to the early 1900s or before in law!
