Chief Justice Rehnquist Dies at His Home

oh fuck!
shit!
aaaaaaaahhhhhhh!

I mean, it's not like I didn't think Rehnquist would leave the Supreme Court while Bush was still in office. it's just that I was hoping it wouldn't happen until after the Democrats in D.C. grew some cojones and would actually challenge the next nominee ('cuz Buddha knows they won't be saying boo about Roberts. who, by the way, is rabidly anti-choice, no matter what CNN & Fox News say) rumor is that Bush won't elevate one of the existing Supreme Court justices to Chief Justice. instead he'll appoint someone else who is not already on the court.

get ready for the culture wars, grrls!
