Sheesh, don't I do anything but blog?

OK, I accomplished a lot today. Tiled my shower, installed my new vanity, painted my bathroom, watched some of the eagles game, watched a little of the cards/pats game. So, its not like I sit around blogging ALL day. There is something that's been weighing on my mind, and I gots ta blog about it.

Judge Anna Diggs Taylor has just reminded us all why America is the greatest land on earth. Even with our fucked up current administration, we are still a bastion of freedom. Recently we overthrew the governments of afghanistan and iraq, big effin deal. Way to go King George. As Americans, we get to overthrow our government every 4-8 years, and we'll be overthrowing this one very soon.

Back to Judge Taylor. In her recent ruling against warrantless NSA wiretapping, she's brought to light something that has been pushed to the shadows over the last 6 years. Its called the Constitution of the United States of America. She's reminded the administration that in America, there are no monarchies, and there are no dictators, and the only power that any branch of the government has comes from the constitution and only from the constitution. This includes you Georgy, and all of your cronies.

I took the time to read her ruling, and while its written in "judge speak", where apparently you need to reference every single statement that you make, it still reminds us that we still live in the land of the free, and our checks and balances are still in place, and the government still works for the people, and no single man can trump the constitution.

Judge Taylor, I'd like to say thanks for doing your job, which is upholding the constitution of this fine land.

George, I'd like to say "go screw yourself"...mostly because the constitution says I can, and a little because I don't like you.
