This'n'That; July 13th["Supremes";NY Constitution]

Fluffy "Hires" Racist Shlub!
Sonia Sotomayor, Fluffy obama's nominee to replace Justice David Souter on the Supreme Court, could possibly be the worst choice ever made by ACORN-COI!!
While Ms Sotomayor is being touted as a progressive judge, the democRATs apparently have foregone the vetting process for federal appointees. Had she been properly vetted, the congress would have found out she has a 60% FAILURE RATE before "The Supremes"...... 3 out of 5 of her decisions have been reversed on appeal before the Supreme Court!!! Most democRATs are also willing to give her "a pass" on her reverse-racist decision concerning the "New Haven Firefighter" case. This is a quote by one of the most avid "KoolAid drinkers:" "Let no one demean this extraordinary woman," [Vt Senator Patrick] Leahy said in a warning to committee republicRATs to tread lightly in the days ahead.
NY Constitutional Convention
[From The Wall Street Journal...]
A constitutional convention is a peoples' meeting to design or redesign the peoples' government. The legislature has traditionally not favored calling such a body to life. It feared that a convention might take steps to diminish the legislature's institutional power or incumbents' chances of re-election.
There are two ways to amend the New York constitution. First, state legislators may identify problems with the political system and propose changes to the people. Second, if politicians benefit from the system's imperfections (as now) and are unlikely to change it, the constitution provides that every 20 years the people can propose necessary revisions. This is where a convention comes in. Our next chance to have one will be in 2017. That date is frustratingly far off given the spectacle in Albany. But it is within the legislature's power to gain back an iota of respect. It should admit its failure and give the voters the chance to protect themselves against further governmental breakdown. [Let's talk more about this in the future!!]
