Former Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens writes in his new memoir, Five Chiefs, that the George W. Bush campaign’s 2000 appeal to the United States Supreme Court over the Florida recount was “frivolous” and never should have been granted.

He recalls bumping into Justice Stephen Breyer at a Christmas party and the two having a brief conversation about the Bush application to halt the recount by issuing a stay. “We agreed that the application was frivolous,” he writes. “To secure a stay, a litigant must show that one is necessary to prevent a legally cognizable irreparable injury. Bush’s attorneys had failed to make any such showing.”

By a five-to-four vote, the court granted the stay. “What I still regard as a frivolous stay application kept the court extremely busy for four days,” he writes. He adds that no justice has ever cited the opinions that provided the basis for their ruling.

Indeed, the court — unusually — limited its decision “to the present circumstances,” meaning that it did not want it to become a precedent.

HuffPost’s Mike Sacks recently interviewed the 91-year-old former justice on his views on the death penalty and the Citizens United ruling just before the memoir was published.

This was used to knock Mitt Romney :
“Even the richest man can’t buy back his past,” intoned a web video that Texas Gov. Rick Perry rolled out to assail chief rival Mitt Romney’s personal wealth and the Massachusetts health care overhaul that Romney signed into law. “America’s most damaging prescription: RomneyCare,” the video said.
and this was used to knock Rick Perry:
Romney said that if you’re an undocumented immigrant “in Texas and you’ve lived there for three years, you can go to college there and get a $100,000 break on your tuition.”

It seems that the supporters of this party are only for the wealthy and are not interested in seeing that others have health care in america. I think it say more about who the voters are than it does about the candidates.

The fluoride added to municipal water supplies is not pharmaceutical grade.

Twenty-three studies from four countries indicate that even moderate exposure to fluoride lowers IQ.

The daily dose of fluoride recommended by the American Dental Association results in the same level of fluoride in your blood shown to cause an 8-point drop in IQ.

Poison control should be called if you swallow a quarter milligram of fluoride from toothpaste. Meanwhile just ONE glass of water can contain this amount of fluoride.

To remain within “safe” limits, you’d have to use such a small amount of fluoridated toothpaste that one tube would last you several years.
