Looks like a pretty big deal. Some fundamental issues were left in no man's land for decades with plenty of people magically believing this or that version that suited their views. Now there's a proper precedent, even if it is 5-4. Almost only counts in horseshoes and hand grenades.
A haven for those who read a lot, like I do. I read so much news that it's a waste not to point at what I've been reading somehow. This blog will track my daily reading habits, whether deep reading or skimming various stories - but I don't do political commentary. Welcome all.

Well, we all have to go sometimes. It's actually better for the Democrats' legislative hopes; a long incapacitation would've prevented them from getting a replacement.

Especially in this pressure cooker environment.
