The situation in Honduras is now several days old. When Zelaya was ousted, President Obama stepped up and spoke in his behalf, and likened the Honduran military's action as a "coup" and "unlawful". The military acted on the unanimous behest of the Honduran legislature and supreme court. I guess in Mr. Obama's mind, it is ok for Zelaya to violate the Honduran Constitution. To him, It's ok for an elected leader to stay on in power after their term has expired.

Seems, according to AP, that the Minnesota Supreme Court has decided that the voter intent of legally submitted, but improperly rejected, absentee ballots in the 2008 Minnesota Senate race, is unimportant, and that Franken is "entitled" to an election certificate, but stopped short of ordering the Governor, Repubican Tim Pawlenty, to sign it.

Thankfully, the Supreme Court has narrowly reversed the decision of Sotomayor's lower court ruling in the RICCI ET AL. v. DESTEFANO ET AL. case. You may recall that the case involved a firefighter's exam given by the New Haven, Connecticut government to determine which firefighters should be promoted to lieutenant.

Sad news. Michael Jackson the undisputed King of Pop and accused pedaphile died yesterday at the age of 50. Reports are that the pop singer suffered cardiac arrest brought on by drug use. It's always sad when someone dies at that young an age. Jackson behaved incredible weirdly as he aged, naming all his children 'Prince' and 'Blanket', dangling one of them out a window at one point. He also underwent extensive plastic surgeries to transform himself from being a black man to a white Asian woman.
