I can understand, but not accept, Alcee Hastings being allowed to serve in Congress. It's not like the Congress lacked other, equally unprincipled, men and women. A disbarred lawyer on the Supreme Court? One could hardly imagine a more corrosive move. If I wanted to create more contempt for the law, I'd nominate Bill Clinton for the Court. The Court has already proven themselves fools of the first order. Roe v Wade. Kelo. McCain-Feingold. These people have proven themselves incapable of reading and understanding the Constitution. They are not unelected kings. The law cannot function, society itself cannot function, when people disrespect and disobey the law. You have got to be kidding.

It's almost deliciously absurd and in reach. When he leaves though, he'll run off with half the law library and a few of the clerks. All in all, it will be most entertaining don't you think?
