“Sen. Patrick Leahy, D-Vt., said Wednesday that he may not ask any questions of the witnesses present at the Supreme Court nominee's hearing. Among the witnesses requested by the committee to testify are New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg and Connecticut firefighters whom the federal court judge ruled against in the reverse discrimination case -- Ricci v. DeStefano -- that was overturned last month by the U.S. Supreme Court. Sotomayor had dismissed the claim of white firefighters in New Haven, Conn., who alleged racial discrimination over the city's decision to scrap a promotions exam after too few minorities did well. ‘I doubt if I have any questions for either -- for the witnesses for or the witnesses against her -- because we're going to make up our mind based on what she said,’ he said.”

It is a well known maxim of representative government that the people deserve the government they get. There is certainly some truth to this. But I can't help feeling that some loophole exists in our grand experiment, which has permitted the ugliness of majority tyranny to hold sway more often than our Founding Fathers intended.

The Obama-Biden-Pelosi-Frank-Misc-Miscreants Cabal has a strangle-hold on traditional American common sense, and there doesn't seem to be any relief in sight. Does the 52-48% Obama majority entitle them to grind down our Nation's greatness, which took centuries of blood, sweat, and tears to construct? Must we settle for the mediocrity of the lowest common denominator in the three branches of our federal government? Is this the kind of change we really deserve? I guess that is just what that 52% majority is claiming. Damn their ignorance.
