I'm now even more certain than before, that Thomas is the best on that bench, and would make the best Chief Justice.

Perhaps, but I think I'd rather see this women:

Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible.

We no longer find slavery abhorrent. We embrace it. We demand more. Big government is not just the opiate of the masses. It is the opiate. The drug of choice for multinational corporations and single moms; for regulated industries and rugged Midwestern farmers and militant senior citizens.

The quixotic desire to do good, be universally fair and make everybody happy is understandable. Indeed, the majority's zeal is more than a little endearing. There is only one problem with this approach. We are a court.

Government is the only enterprise in the world which expands in size when its failures increase.

The public school system is already so beleaguered by bureaucracy; so cowed by the demands of due process; so overwhelmed with faddish curricula that its educational purpose is almost an afterthought.

How about both on the SCOTUS bench? I'd be happy to have either as Chief Justice.

And while we are dreaming, who should be replaced? I think the removal of Ginsberg (Ginsburg, whatever) would be most beneficial.
