    I'd just like to congratulate Kevin James on his gender bending new role, as Paul Blart, Justice.

    See the flap under her chin? That is called the PH flap where she hides her oil drilling tentacles. One more lawer for Big Oil.

    I probably disagree with all of her political philosophy, social positions , abortion, you name it. However, she meets the qualifications to be on the Supreme Court. If she isn't qualified, then no one is.

    I would have much preferred Judge Bork to be on the court, but this lady is a law degree, taught at the university level, and in my book, she should be voted in. Like I said, I disagree with her on about everything, but her agreeing with me isn't one of the qualifications for the court.

    Aren't there any good looking women judges out there who qualify for the supreme court. My God! The current list are all ugly as a mud fence. Not that the guys are any better. With the exception of the chief.
