“You know, you know…”

The Supreme Court.  Brightest minds. Greatest thinkers.  Makers interpreters of law.

I know. I know.  It’s not that big a deal.  It’s only one seat. of. nine. — for. life.

Go ahead… just shake your head.

The reasoning behind the resolution passed by the state senate of Hawaii eludes me. [edited - the original link was to a story regarding the establishment of "Islam Day" in Hawaii -- the linked story is no longer available.  Here's another 'general' one.  Google the resolution to find many articles.]

Another chapter in The Emperor’s New Clothes

  And so it goes.

President Barack Obama didn’t shy away from the “snub” by Arizona State University officials who said he hadn’t accomplished enough yet to earn an honorary degree. In a commencement speech Wednesday to a stadium full of young graduates, he said the officials were right.
