Chief Justice William Rehnquist is Dead

There was just a Special Report that interrupted the game I was watching which said that Chief Justice William Rehnquist has just died. We have gone years without any changes in the Supreme Court, and now there have been two changes in a relatively short time.

Democrats must be saying under their breath, "Wow, those conservatives even die at the right time."

The Chief Justice wasn't doing so good during the last of the 8 years that Clinton was in office. I am sure the Democrats were hoping that Rehnquist would have retired then, but alas he didn't.

I am amazed that Rehnquist stayed on the bench until he died. Wow, no retirement. I can understand that if he was in ministry, but he was a judge. (...albeit the most important judge in the United States.) Still, I couldn't do that.
