Now you don't need to feel bad about falling asleep during a meeting.

WorldNetDaily:

According to the Associated Press, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg snoozed during oral arguments today over political redistricting in Texas.

"The subject matter was extremely technical," notes AP writer Gina Holland, "and near the end of the argument Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg dozed in her chair."

"Justices David Souter and Samuel Alito, who flank the 72-year-old, looked at her but did not give her a nudge," writes Holland.

Is that water in her pitcher

Is that water in her pitcher - or Vodka?!

Where do I remember hearing a story about the judge who drank tumblers of vodka while sitting on the bench?

This is most unfortunate. The Bush administration may get another SCOTUS nominee!!!?

Cheech and Chong.

I love how the AP writer pointed out the oral portion was "highly technical." You know that's codespeak for: It was boring and everyone was nodding off.
