I was wondering whether it was this election in particular that was driving me to madness, or whether I had become this unhinged over the prospect of Kerry ‘04.  Fortunately (or unfortunately), I have some of my babbling saved for posterity from that time period: Election Day 2004 Turns out I am particularly unhinged over the prospect of Oba...

I’m tired of the term judicial activism. If you want to find rights in “penumbras and emanations” of the Constitution, go ahead.
