umm, might want to rethink that
it'll let whichever party wins pack the court. then when thier limits come up whoever is in power gets to pack it again. then when thier limits come up...
Exactly. That's why I'm against term limits for judges.

You guys make a good point on the minimum wage. The way I look at it, though, around here it's damn near impossible to find a job that pays minimum wage. I even saw McDonald's advertising that they were hiring people at $7 an hour.

Damnit all, tell me what it's about or quit junkmailing me with trash paper!
That pisses me off, too. I don't mind getting them because I'm willing to read in between the lines and find out what the stuff really means. I've seen so many "this is how you should vote" cheat sheets that don't even explain the issue or twist them so you'd be stupid not to vote the way they want you to. What really sucks about it is how many people out there look at those check sheets and think "great now I don't have to find out for myself". They should really come up with a way to make that shit illegal or at least limit it.
