This should be good

Well, it's happened. One of the Supreme Court justices has announced that he's going to retire at the end of this session, so that means the Great Pretender will get to select a Supreme Court justice. Oh, joy.

I very clearly remember during the past election campaigns that one of the things we were warned about if NObama got elected was that he would have the chance to appoint at least one and maybe two justices to the Supreme Court, as a few of the members were getting long in the tooth, so to speak. So now, just more than 100 days into his reign - I'm sorry, his administration - the Great Pretender will get his chance.

I, for one, am very curious to see who he's going to nominate. I'm even more curious to see just how much of a stink the Republicans remaining in Congress are going to raise when he makes his nomination. The fight should be interesting, to say the least.

One of the things that NObama said during his campaign was that he was "pro-Second Amendment," although I don't believe that for a millisecond - not with his voting record in Congress, I don't. Well, now will be his chance to do one of two things: prove that he meant what he said and NOT nominate an uber-liberal, anti-Second Amendment candidate for the position, or prove that he's just another lying, scum-sucking, lowlife politician who will say anythign to get elected and nominate an uber-liberal, anti-Second Amendment candidate.

I bet that Billary "We are the President!" Clinton wishes she weren't the Secretary of State right now...after all, that's only a four year gig, eight years at the very most if we're REALLY unlucky, while an appointment to the Supreme Court is for LIFE. So whaddaya think - does she have the cajones to resign as SecState and hope for a shot at the Supreme Court, or is she gonna stay where she is and try a second run at the White House through the front door this time?

Stay tuned, sports fans, this is gonna get interesting.
