I know records are made to be broken–but by SIXTEEN years? Must be the hooch she drinks.

Roberts Wants Court to Skip State of the Union

Posted by Jeff on March 10, 2010

One big, happy family.

Chief Justice John Roberts told University of Alabama law students that the Supreme Court should skip the State of the Union.  Apparently they can’t handle being called out for controversial decisions. 

It cracks me up that they claim that tradition bars them from showing emotion or even interest.  I really don’t think that anyone actually thinks they are disinterested parties that look at all cases objectively.  Justice Thomas flat out said that he doesn’t think they should even hear arguments anymore.  I mean why be open to others’ opinions when you are programmed to vote the way you promised?

Haim and Feldman were doing cool vampire movies before it was so hip.  Pattinson is a poser.
