Mice with bubonic plague; leaky borders; Hillary's 2008 run at the
oval office; and now this! My God!
Did you know the Rummy owns a damn fat share of the company that
patented the Tamiflu vaccine?

Samuel Alito: his academic background at Princeton and Yale; his
distinguished career as a government prosecutor and appellate
lawyer; his experience in representing the United States twelve
times before the Supreme Court of the United States; his hundreds of
opinions during fifteen years as a member of the United States Court
of Appeals for the Third Circuit.
