White House Lawyer before Supreme Court today
White House lawyer Ted Olson was before the Supreme Court today arguing against the recent laws that curb soft money from political donors. (p.s. supreme court convened early to address this issue)by the way W* was in my town today selling hot dogs for two grand.

1. Wasn't It Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY)
Who filed the lawsuit?

He's a scumbag IMHO.

2. It's a real hoot
To watch what was formerly one of the most respected courts in the world cut their vacations short and give a record amount of time for oral argument to interpret the rules for corporations bribing congress.

If it weren't so sad it would be hilarious.
