NYT: “NEWS ALERT | 11:08 PM ET
Chief Justice William Rehnquist Has Died, Supreme Court Spokeswoman Says” (No story yet.)
A reporter said he died surrounded by his three grown children at a suburban hospital.
Bush will need to choose not only another justice but also a chief justice. Just for now, let us mourn his passing, no matter the politics. But there is no doubt that I, personally and selfishly, mourn his passing for the implications to this country and the world.
And let us remember BooMan’s words yesterday: “I woke up and read the New York Times and the Washington Post. And, I’m still pissed off. I still think we should march on Washington and demand the resignation or impeachment of Bush and Cheney.”
Now. More than ever. September 24. Sacrifice whatever it takes.
Everything hangs in the balance. As if it didn’t already. Don’t just be. Be there.
