Ah, I see. The main blog site timed out last week, but the direct link to the live blog was still working. That’s why I posted the direct link.

Guess that’s not the case this week.

The dems aren’t going to like the summary dismissal of the Montana case, it was there one chance to get Citizens United reversed. I guess the Supremes showed them they hadn’t been intimidated by Obama’s State of the Union lecture...

[Bill Buckner]

"No life w/o parole for under 18.."

So the DC Sniper who worked with Mohamaed (what's his name) could be out soon?
