Excellent start Ken, thanks for the thread(s). And thanks for the AM chuckles as to your "awards", heh! Spot on.
I would love to send a letter to Justice Alito after today, congratulating him on his confirmation. I wonder if there is an address where that could be done? Not just the generic address for the SCOTUS building, hopefully.
I wonder if congrats to his mother would be shared with Samuel A., Jr., as well.
That's what I felt like doing for Condoleeza Rice after her confirmation as Secretary of State. I was so proud that this woman had held her own and maintained her dignity in the face of such inexcuseable attacks on the part of the Democrats. I wanted to send her a card of congratulations but in the end decided she'd probably never see it anyway...but at least that's how I felt at that time.
