Years ago I said I would never, ever, ever vote for Romney.I have since decided since I'm old and couldn't care less what happens to America, I'd let you left wing loons have at it.
Another simple situation where people bumping old threads should be banned. Since I'm not a mod, I'll just have to content myself with putting you ignorant bumpers on ignore. Frugality already was there. Now I get to add trl and Jude to my huge list.
Life is good.
Translation, I'm full of shyt and I stand for nothing.
Kind of like a two year old hiding under a blanket so they don't have to see anything they don't want to. And about as childish.
The sixth age shifts
Into the lean and slipper'd pantaloon,
With spectacles on nose and pouch on side,
His youthful hose, well saved, a world too wide
For his shrunk shank; and his big manly voice,
Turning again toward childish treble, pipes
And whistles in his sound. Last scene of all,
That ends this strange eventful history,
Is second childishness and mere oblivion,
Sans teeth, sans eyes, sans taste, sans everything.

Supreme Court justices typically serve will into their 90s. Secondly neither Obama nor Romney can just "appoint" judges. All of them require 61 votes in the Senate.
Completely wrong.
The average retiring age of all United States Supreme Court Justices over the past fifty years is 76. The recently-retired Justice John Paul Stevens stepped down two months after his 90th birthday -- and he was the first 90-year-old Justice since Oliver Wendell Holmes retired in 1932, also at the age of 90 (he remains to this day the oldest Justice in the high court's history).
Finally, the number required to break a filibuster in the Senate is 60, not 61 -- but Supreme Court nominees are not routinely filibustered (think -- the controversial Clarence Thomas only received 52 votes for confirmation, but no one ever tried to filibuster him).
