Friday 7th Sept.2012

Watched some great sppeches over the last few nights. I have been encouraged by the enthusiasm of the DNC crowd and the sheer determination that the USA is faced with an election in which it must choose a direction; forward or backward.

Can you imagine a Supreme Court with new conservative appointees shoring up  the vapid ideology of Scalia and Alito ?  And imagine their partisan  "strict constructionist" delusions prevailing for a generation ?  It would simply be a disaster.........they would uphold voting rights restrictions, repeal DADT, affirm DOMA, repeal Roe -v- Wade.......... My god, they have already allowed lobbyists to buy elections under Citizens United.......what else will they do to undermine the value of democracy and the the value of the single vote ?
