Supreme Argument

I've never seen an episode of Boston Legal but I have caught a few clips online and they're always powerful stuff, particularly the arguments from James Spader's character, Alan Shore. Here he dresses down the Supreme Court Justices in superb fashion for their obvious conflicts of interest and blatant politization of what was originally created to be a nonpartisan branch of government:
Tipping the highest court in the land decisively to the right may just be Bush's most enduring legacy after his disastrous presidency is finally over with.

Don't underestimate his work with the Texas Rangers.

I don't know much about it but someone once told me that the biggest thing they did during his tenure was to get rid of Sammy Sosa.

You are correct James, he did.

As for the Boston Legal bit, right on! and wow! Thanks for posting it.

The Supreme Court appointments are the number one reason I think that it's neccessary to get a Democrat elected this year, even if it's not Obama. And if you liked that clip, check this one out. I saw it a year ago without the added graphics and it really spoke to me.
