Hello Everybody,   
      
   Liberals have waited a long time for this.  A very   
   long time.  Antonin Scalia, the longest-serving justice   
   on the US Supreme Court, is dead at age 79.  And now,   
   for the first time in decades, a Democrat has the power   
   to change to course of human history by nominating a   
   new justice to the US Supreme Court who will return   
   real justice to all Americans - in the same way that   
   FDR did.   
      
   Republican presidents have never been interested in   
   justice.  Not for most Americans, anyway.  The Republican   
   version of justice was to put folks onto the USSC who would   
   uphold the status quo.  And that status quo for Republicans   
   was the filthy rich.  The richest one-tenth of one percent   
   of all Americans.   
      
   While I am saddened at the news about the death of Antonin   
   Scalia, I am also gladdened at the prospects of the shift in   
   power that will be made upon confirmation of President Obama's   
   choice for a new US Supreme Court justice to sit on the bench.   
      
   Rev. Al Sharpton would be the perfect choice, in my opinion.   
   But I doubt he would accept such a nomination, as he has other   
   interests that keep him quite busy.  And Jesse Jackson is too   
   old for that sort of thing.  So he's out.  I wonder who that   
   leaves?  Hmmm.  Michele is a lawyer.  And soon to be former   
   first lady ...   
      
   Antonin Scalia, RIP
