1. Yes, it is an insidious disease, and it will only get worse because of 2000 and her involvement

[ccinamon]

2. +1000

I was thrilled (as young lady) when she was nominated and accepted to be a Supreme Court justice...then she turned fucking evil....I wish for her and her family and her children's family all of the worse bad luck and/or karma possible for the next 100 years...may every painful disease and illness fall upon their heads, hearts, body and soul.

4. The problem is that because of that decision, education and scientific funding is being put on the

back burner

[Botany]

3. Yes Alzheimer's is awful but so was:

9/11
the war in Afghanistan
the war in Iraq
torture
spying
the 2004 Presidential election
the outing of Val Plame
the response to Katrina
the having the Louisiana national guard and their amphibious vehicles in Iraq when Katrina hit
taking the money from New Orleans levy projects and spending it on a war so they were not fixed before Katirna
running the nation's economy into a ditch
Paying no attention to global warming
turning the environment regulation over to the polluters
kick backs and theft during a war
Halliburton / KBR
Blackwater
the deaths of tens of thousands of wild run salmon in the pacific thanx to Dick Cheney
the oil spill in the gulf
and ......

All of which would never had happened if Bush v Gore had have happened too. Sorry about the
illness but the hurt you put on the world is massive Sandy.

5. If she hadn't put W into office, perhaps we'd be on our way to dealing with this.

But tax breaks for his buddies and war for his contractor buddies are all we got.

6. honest, I don't want to hear her opinion on ANYTHING

she lost all credibility when she overrode the will of the people and installed a lying, thieving piece of SHIT into the White House
