"it's also important for me to go on with my life"

and other oddities....President Bush, in a stinging rebuke stinging rebuke to Gold Star Mom Cindy Sheehan, went on a bike ride on his vacation. His steely gaze and leisurely pace exuded his opinion of her 'vigil (On a sidenote: this is fun, it's like they forgot how to manipulate the press...:)

In related news...Christian Conservatives, or Conservative Christians held a Rally for justices rally for justices...and by justices they mean Supreme Court Nominees who will vote, "to end the constitutional right to abortion, against recognition of same-sex marriage and for fewer restrictions on religious expression in public places."

Some highlights of this event:

Spurned Supreme Court nominee Robert H. Bork offered that the US Supreme Court has defined homosexuality as "a constitutional right . . . and once homosexuality is defined as a constitutional right, there is nothing the states can do about it, nothing the people can do about it." (You ever look back on a particular moment in history and say... Whew! Spend a quick second thinking about a Scalia, Thomas and Bork court)

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay (R-Tex.) said "activist courts" are imposing "state-sanctioned same-sex marriage" and "partial-birth abortion" and are "ridding the public square of any mention of our nation's religious heritage" in what amounts to "judicial supremacy, judicial autocracy" before men in tight-fitting white suits shot him in the neck with tranquilizers and took him away...

Okay, enough is enough. Check out Zell Miller (D-Ga...if you can believe it) Miller said the court "removed prayer from our public schools . . . legalized the barbaric killing of unborn babies, and it is ready to discard like an outdated hula hoop the universal institution of marriage between a man and a woman."

I'm over Zell Miller. Something needs to be done. I propose that the Minority Whip Steny Hoyer do whatever it is that Whips do...at the very least he should give him a serious nuggie or perhaps a 'cry uncle' indian burn...something...
