Oh, the irony...

Ironic Times

BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG 150TH ANNIVERSARY MARKED BY REENACTMENTS ACROSS COUNTRY
This time however, Democrats fight for the Union, Republicans the Confederacy.
A lot closer to the truth than it is ironic.

Supreme Court Invalidates Key Part of Voting Rights Act
By narrow margin of Justice Thomas's three-fifths of a vote

Twinkies Returning to Shelves
If date of expiration is 2053 or later, they're fresh.

CORRECTION

We reported that Justice Antonin Scalia, in a fiery dissent in the Voting Rights Act case, slammed the majority for “invalidating this democratically adopted legislation. That is jaw-dropping. It is an assertion of judicial supremacy over the people's representatives in Congress and the executive.” In fact, Scalia was referring not to the Court's overturning the Voting Rights Act, but the Court's overturning the Defense of Marriage Act. We apologize for any confusion caused by our mistake.

I wonder if Fat Tony sees his own hypocrisy. It may be too deep for him.

Hello Gordon,

It would be nice if "Fat Tony" met "Vlad Tepes" aka "Vlad the Impailer". They both seem to have so much in common.
