Boston Legal's Depiction of the Supreme Court...

Was right on target. When I first saw this clip, I couldn't believe how wonderful it would be if this was not fiction. Well, it seems the Supreme Court may not be as politically polarized as I thought but just one more Republican justice and it will be. When that happens a case like this will only be a fairytale. I can't embed it any longer but you can view it here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PqlGoxfAkuU

Supreme Court Fictionalized Dramatization
UPDATE: SUPREME COURT REJECTS THE IDEA OF DEATH FOR RAPE OF A
CHILD:
WASHINGTON - Proponents and opponents of imposing the death penalty
for rape of a child underwent intense questioning Wednesday from a seemingly
divided Supreme Court.

The hour-long argument came in the case of inmate
Patrick Kennedy, sentenced to death for raping his 8-year-old stepdaughter.


Kennedy's lawyer, Jeffrey L. Fisher, told the court the death penalty
for child rape under Louisiana law violates the Eighth Amendment protection
against cruel and unusual punishment.

This is a short video clip that shows how the
Supreme Court has become partisan during the long reign of the Republican Party.
If only this depiction could be reality,
But alas, it can never be, as long as we have the Limbaughs, the Coulters and
the radical, religious wing of the Republican Party. Too bad, too sad!
