With Democrats in the political process minority, this Chief Justice Roberts quote is sure to make Ted Kennedy apoplectic (Harvard-educated Ted Kennedy on the attack):
"Too many people think whenever there's any kind of dispute in our society, well let's take it to the Supreme Court and they'll decide," he said. "In a democratic republic that shouldn't be someone's first reaction. Their first reaction should be to resolve political disputes in the political process." Portrait of the Chief Justice as a Family Man
Thank God for global warming – who knew driving those suburban-garaged, gas-guzzling SUVs would actually serve to make our cities more livable When Staying Cool Seems Better Than Being Bad:
“A curious aspect of high temperature is that while crime and aggression rise with the heat, beyond a certain point, you start to see less violent crime.”
