Barack Obama Supreme Court Appointee Wikipedia?
Wikipedia | 11/6/08 | Neverbluffer

Posted on 11/06/2008 8:32:52 PM PST by neverbluffer

I am really confused now. I just read an article about Cass Sunstein, a potential appointee to the Supreme Court by Barack Obama.

I looked him up on Wikipedia, and to my amazement, under his CAREER notations it states that he was nominated as White House Counsel by President Elect Obama on November 7, 2008.

November 7, 2008 is not until tommorrow!!!!!

How does wikipedia have this information already when it is only November 6.

Since Wacky-pedia prefers to make it up as they go along, I’m not surprised in the least...

Obama is very close to Sunstein.

Sunstein is another law professor who believes liberal judges should rule over the masses as philosopher-kings.

Except Conservatives or Republicans. Their updates disappear.

Cass Sunstein is married to Samantha Power (who had to resign and distance herself from the campaign during the primaries after calling Hillary a “monster”).

This suggests that she may not be too far from the Obama WH, as many of us expected. I won’t be surprised if Power ends up as the National Security Adviser.

Amazing find. Kind of funny. It was posted by the following, from an IP that has contributed to no other articles. I bet the guy maintains he own “vanity page” on WikiPedia. Or else 0ba’mao has a team that maintains WikiPedia,..would not surprise me...soon to be done with my tax money.

See reviews of Sunstein's book "Republic.com". Very, very popular on the left.

He wants government to force us to read other than FreeRepublic and conservative web sites -- it's "bad" for democracy for us Freepers to be so "narrow minded."

I did not read the book but I did hear several interviews with the author. When asked, should liberals be forced to read conservative sites? he had to think a couple of seconds. Then acknowledged that yes he supposed so, it's just that he'd never thought of it that way.

have you checked out change.gov???

The Obama Administration will call on Americans to serve in order to meet the nation’s challenges. President-Elect Obama will expand national service programs like AmeriCorps and Peace Corps and will create a new Classroom Corps to help teachers in underserved schools, as well as a new Health Corps, Clean Energy Corps, and Veterans Corps. Obama will call on citizens of all ages to serve America, by developing a plan to require 50 hours of community service in middle school and high school and 100 hours of community service in college every year. Obama will encourage retiring Americans to serve by improving programs available for individuals over age 55, while at the same time promoting youth programs such as Youth Build and Head Start.
