Global Trash Hash Hymnal – Roll Me Over in the Clover<\/a> <\/p>\n

\nChorus
\nRoll me over in the clover,
\nRoll me over, lay me down, and do it again.\n<\/div>\n

Well, the Supreme’s have done it<\/a> again!  (I know this is not healthy, but my cynicism about this president has proven to be so accurate in predicting his administration’s behavior that I no longer need my psychic.)  The Supreme Court can no longer claim a place within the Judicial Branch; it has become an agent of the Executive.

\n“From a policy perspective, it is understandable for the states to attempt to prevent minors from using tobacco products before they reach an age where they are capable of weighing for themselves the risks and potential benefits of tobacco use, and other adult activities.  Federal law, however, places limits on policy choices available to the states.”<\/p>\n

This, apparently, is a New Federalism fashioned by the same people who said that the states should be left alone to do what they want.  That was what they said, until the federal law became their domain when they sucessfully installed an illegitimate president.  These people in power are afloat in a tide of intellectual dishonesty.  Bush, Scalia, Cheney and the like–they can’t be trusted. \n<\/p>\n
