Huh... looks like Pat Robertson's prayer to God for "additional vacancies on the court" was answered by the Almighty. :roll:

Perhaps, although one suspects the Almighty did not off the particular justices Pat Robertson had in mind...

Perhaps Pat Robertson should take that as a hint.

He's already moved on. It seems the CIA rather than the deity is now his hit man of choice (e.g., Hugo Chavez)...

I just want to be the first to go on record as saying, "It wasn't my fault. I was home all night."

Haven't had cancer around here for years. It's inhumane and besides, it's slow as hell.

A great man has passed.

It ought to be interesting to see how the current members (average age of 70) deal with a "young punk" as their Chief Justice.

If you don't like coincidences, you're in trouble.

The world is full of them.

In my life, there's at least one coincidence a day on the personal level.

There are no coincidences, ever. Period. What is percieved as a coincidence is actually not, its just that you have failed to factor in all determinates.
