I won't put down any of the conservatives on the Court until sager heads have weighed in with fuller information.
Too bad you don't hand out the benifit of the doubt when it comes to Obama. Not being partisan at all are ya?

This is why I am against the death penalty. I know you can show me cases that seem cut and dried but I still think we can lock people up for life and that works for me.
