Happy May Day!

Today is the anniversary of Bush's "Mission Accomplished" fiasco. Would that we could ask those who've been killed or injured since 2003 what they think of that statement. And yet, this weekend Judge Scalia had the audacity to say "get over it!" with regard to the decision of the Court to place Bush in office. It boggles the mind to think how different things would be in this country and the world had they actually made their decision based on the merits of the case... Needless to say, some of us are less 'over it' after 7.5 years of this administration, than we were in 2000!
