    Lemur just hates when you attack his side, because he is a notorious partisan. I'm suprised though, because even his side is against this appointment.

    It would probably be well placed in the other thread as well, but we are trying to tie it into a larger narrative - since it is tied inexorably to the '08 election, I think it belongs here, as does the Franken/Coleman race and the Kennedy appointment.

    Burris is being appointed because of the election of Barack Obama and will be a new Senator to be seated in the new Congress along with all of the other, slightly more elected newcomers.

    -Eric "George Orwell" Blair

    "If the policy of the government, upon vital questions affecting the whole people, is to be irrevocably fixed by decisions of the Supreme Court...the people will have ceased to be their own rulers, having to that extent practically resigned the government into the hands of that eminent tribunal."
    (Lincoln's First Inaugural Address, 1861).
