		<description>I know this is out of scope of the conversation, but do the taxpayers have to pay for secret service to protect John McCain&#039;s nine homes if he becomes president?</description>

		<description>If everyone has to keep a gun to protect himself from criminals, who then are the criminal? It&#039;s no use having the police when everyone can be the police of our lives. Let&#039;s define our duties right.  &quot;The troubled mind uses the body within its environment with the available resources.&quot;  A possessed mind bent on committing crime will use the most effective available instrument for that: The GUN. Obama, please Keep the guns far from our reach because &quot;no mad man knew he was gonna go mad.&quot;

		<description>Thank God I live in Canada!! People need to get a grip on the fact that guns do kill and allot of innocent children die from guns that are left around peoples homes. I never, ever will understand  the gun laws all I know is compare Britains deaths by firearms along side Canada&#039;s and the truth is the last thing the U.S. needs is more guns!! 
 Please, just keep them down there because we have safer cities and towns because of our gun laws. Thank God! .</description>

The word &quot;arms&quot; does not directly translate to &quot;handguns.&quot; 

Handguns did not exist upon the creation of the Second Amendment to the Constitution.

		<description>From another ticker Beth-Florida wrote:

&quot;We need unions like we need affirmative action…

Free America Now!

Go McCain 08&quot;

Exactly which &quot;we&quot; do you represent.  I completed a masters program at a historically black university along with several other grads like me.  I&#039;ve worked at 3 multi-billion dollar corporations during my ten-year career and for 10 years, I have been one of VERY few.  I know for a fact that they and I were hired as a result of affirmative action.  So combining your comment with my perspective, unions are needed b/c affirmative action sure as hell is.</description>

		<description>Americans and Guns... Unbelievable..... How any country could put gun ownership in their constitution is mind-numbingly stupid. And how it could last 200 years, with the majority of the population supporting it is equally bewildering. 

Do the rest of the world a favor, and stop whining about the violence that surrounds you, buy all the guns you possibly can, and shoot each other, until all that&#039;s left is an intelligent population that can figure out that 2nd Amendment is the most retarded thing ever written.</description>

		<description>Three correct 5-4 rulings by the court. Three votes in the majority by Justice Kennedy. There&#039;s a pattern here. 

Justice Kennedy is by far the best of that bunch. He judges each case on its merits in the Constitution as explicitly stated and takes absolutely no cues from the partisans, which cannot be said about ANY of the other justices on the court. We need more people like him on the court. I&#039;m pretty sure we&#039;re not going to get them from either McCain or Obama.</description>

		<description>To Clinton/McCain, Evidently you voted for the two biggest terrorists in history, Bush &amp; Cheney. They have done bin Laden&#039;s work for him by single handedly destroying our country and our way of life. If they are not already on it they should be on Al Qaidea&#039;s payroll. They both should be permanent residents of Gitmo with the other terrorist criminals.</description>

		<description>OBAMA WILL HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO CHANGE THE FACE OF THE SUPREME COURT SO THAT ROBERTS, ALITO AND THOMAS WILL ALWAYS BE IN THE MINORITY.
 AGREE WITH OBAMA&#039;S STANCE ON THE DEATH PENALTY.
THERE ARE INDEED INSTANCES WHERE THE RAPE CONVICTION OF A RAPIST SUCH AS THE CASE OF THE HUGE MAN RAPING HIS STEPDAUGHTER DESERVES THE DEATH PENALTY.
JUST AN AISDE HERE WHERE IT BELONGS:  THIS  NADER  GUY WHO SHOWS UP IN EVERY PRESIDENTIAL ELECTION  COULD GET MY 2 CENTS IF HE HAD A RECORD OF EVER BEEN ELECTED

		<description>Yea who cares what the constitution says! How funny you see no problem with the court making up law thats not in the constitution but get upset that they affirm something that is in black and white. If you dont like the constitution change it with an amendment not by judges pulling it out of their asre.</description>

		<description>Oh please Wolf....you&#039;re smarter than this.  Upholding the 2nd Amendment is MUCH different than Roe v. Wade.   The people who really believe Roe will be overturned crack me up!!!!  I can&#039;t believe they fall for it.  (By the way........yes, I&#039;m a female.  I&#039;m also an attorney so I&#039;m not blind to the Courts.  Roe will NOT be overturned.)

Do you realize that in the 35 yrs that Roe has been in place, we have had a REPUBLICAN President for approximately 23 of those years.  That means Republican appointed Justices.....and still........it hasn&#039;t been overturned!!!!

People do not understand.......overturning Roe v. Wade is a political threat.  They hang it over our heads EVERY election year, and Americans fall for it time after time.  lol   Fool me once, shame on you.   Fool me twice.....

May I also point out that McCain voted to CONFIRM Justices Ginsberg and Breyer (our two most liberal justices).  Additionally, don&#039;t doubt the Justices&#039; intelligence.  Whether they are liberal or conservative, the Justices are some of the most brilliant legal minds in the country.  They will not overturn a case that will lead to PURE PANDEMONIUM!!!  The last thing they want is anarchy.  More lawsuits in already clogged dockets, back alley abortions being performed by individuals who aren&#039;t even doctors, women dying and being hospitialized, law breaking.....not to mention it will complicate an already screwy health care system in the U.S.   GET REAL, BE SMART....its not going to be overturned folks!</description>
		<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Oh please Wolf....you're smarter than this.  Upholding the 2nd Amendment is MUCH different than Roe v. Wade.   The people who really believe Roe will be overturned crack me up!!!!  I can't believe they fall for it.  (By the way........yes, I'm a female.  I'm also an attorney so I'm not blind to the Courts.  Roe will NOT be overturned.)</p>
<p>Do you realize that in the 35 yrs that Roe has been in place, we have had a REPUBLICAN President for approximately 23 of those years.  That means Republican appointed Justices.....and still........it hasn't been overturned!!!!</p>
<p>People do not understand.......overturning Roe v. Wade is a political threat.  They hang it over our heads EVERY election year, and Americans fall for it time after time.  lol   Fool me once, shame on you.   Fool me twice.....</p>
<p>May I also point out that McCain voted to CONFIRM Justices Ginsberg and Breyer (our two most liberal justices).  Additionally, don't doubt the Justices' intelligence.  Whether they are liberal or conservative, the Justices are some of the most brilliant legal minds in the country.  They will not overturn a case that will lead to PURE PANDEMONIUM!!!  The last thing they want is anarchy.  More lawsuits in already clogged dockets, back alley abortions being performed by individuals who aren't even doctors, women dying and being hospitialized, law breaking.....not to mention it will complicate an already screwy health care system in the U.S.   GET REAL, BE SMART....its not going to be overturned folks!</p>

		<description>Dear Obama Supporters

If you vote for Obama you are voting for a person without any substantial experience, a person without  believable policies, because all of his policies belonged to Hillary R. Clinton.  And he still does not understand the whole implementation of these plans.

Your man, Obama  is a man without substance, integrity, a racist because he keeps using the race card, he is also a weak leader and a poor excuse for a candidate.

This nomination was given to Obama by the DNC, the RBC, the media and the super delegated and this fact will go down in history, as the point of decline of the Democratic Party.

So, stop telling us Clinton supporters to &quot;GET OVER IT&quot; because we never will, because the discrepancy effected all of us, her supporters and that we will never forget, never!

So, what I suggest is you Obomabots &quot;GET OVER THE FACT&quot; that we are not going away!

God Bless America!</description>

I sure hope so, the victims have been through enough!</description>

		<description>Over 21, register a gun and register for the draft. These people who want to have a gun probably will never have to shoot that gun. Lets spread the deployment burden around a bit and give our men and women who serve in the military and thier families a break.</description>

		<description>How about this. Anyone over 21 who can register a gun for &quot;protection&quot;  also registers for the DRAFT.  Many of these punks on the street who want to settle their kindergarden feuds with guns are the biggest cowards! Most of them are dumb bunnies who cant even shoot( or hit a real target anyway ) They would run screaming for thier &quot;mommy&quot; at the thought of being hit by a roadside bomb but they will shoot at their stupid criminal buddies in a schoolyard. I am the anxious spouse of a US  Army soldier serving yet another tour in Iraq. Could we get a few of these wanna be gunslingers to go over and help out so our men and women can have a break?</description>

		<description>Ths 2nd ammendment to the Constitution is the Lexington and Concord ammendment, where the British attempted to take the arms from the people.  It&#039;s intent was to ensure that the citizens had rights that they did not have under British rule.  The new federal government was no more trusted than the former British government had been.  

To this end, I believe that the 2nd ammendment confers upon us the ability to own any weapon that the governemt could use against it&#039;s citizens.  If we with to ban handguns, then we need to ban handguns from everyone, including police, FBI, etc.  Or ban all automatic or semi-automatic weapons.  Maybe everyone can have a small calibre handgun, but we outlaw the large calibre ones.  

This does not preclude the government from using nuclear bombs against it&#039;s foreign enemies, but not against it&#039;s citizens.  

It is simply a matter of balance.</description>

		<description>The judges are there to make the  best decisions in a fair manner, but of course they will always be biased depending on their own beliefs. So to all those disgruntled women who would vote McSame because they feel Hillary had been wronged, I would say &quot;go  ahead&quot;.  These are the ones who do not know  that their freedom of speech, rights , thoughts and deeds will only realize what they have lost when they do not have them any longer. Right now, they have the freedom to do what they want and the freedom to not only be bitter but stupid.</description>

		<description>Although I hate the idea of more guns being on the streets... I have to agree with ALECO1...

Making something illegal will not take it off the streets.  Drugs like Pot, Cocaine, etc. are all illegal... yet I can get any drug I want within an hour just by making a phone call or two.  Citizens being allowed to own guns puts them on a level playing field with criminals who would get them regardless of whether they are legal or not.  

But I do think that there should be a more stringent gun ownership license... a required gun safety course... to make sure that people, especially with kids, have it beat into their heads the importance of gun safety and keeping the guns well out of reach of kids.</description>

		<description>I agreed with the Gun decision, but disagreed with the Rape decision.  What does that make me?  Does anyone know?

There&#039;s not a law or rule a criminal is going to follow with guns.  Get real here.  The constitutional right to defend yourself is how this country was founded.

The Rape decision was a mistake.  The damage that man did to that little girl is far worse than death.  Feeding him three squares and having a roof over his head is WAY more the he deserves.</description>

Your side comments on your situation room about Obama is evident to your viewers. Your journalism is too negative and one sided against Obama.</description>

		<description>Many Americans are unaware that the balance of the S Ct is up for grabs with the next president, and I truly believe appointing justices is the most important role the next pres. will play.  It is imperative we elect Barack Obama or else we will likely slide back into the judicial dark ages.  Long live Justice Stevens!</description>

		<description>Obama&#039;s recent opposition to the rape case makes me uncomfortable. His sense of balance on delicate issues is becoming obvious. I wondered for a moment if we will be looking at the introduction of Sharia law in the US if he is President. It was suggested by an Archbishop in the UK and was welcomed by some groups. He has shown support for the rainbow organization. I think what McCain would be more practical in his arguments on these issues  for women.</description>

		<description>The sentence reading &quot;But Kennedy sided with the liberals in two other major 5-4 decisions, including Wednesday’s ruling that the death penalty could not apply to child rape victims&quot;  should say &#039;child rapists&#039; instead of &#039;child rape victims.&#039;  Sentencing child rape victims to death seems needlessly cruel.  Some sharia judges might not even go that far.</description>

		<description>Look at the guys who comment here. There is no consrvative or liberal judge. They have to interpret the constituion. How can you ban guns when our second amendment allows us to bear arms.
Hre you are saying Obama 2008. For what? He is an idiot. USA has their power in the world and we must keep it that way. Barackl will make us like any other country including 3rd world country. Barack go away.CNN you must be fair to publish these comments. It is the truth.</description>

		<description>Roe v. Wade was supported by REPUBLICAN JUDGES folks.

If you have a Constitutional LAW Judge, their job is to apply existing law, NOT overturn it.  Law rises above partys.  Judges vote according to the law, NOT according to parties.

Wolf, you should be ashamed of yourself.  You know McCain won&#039;t try to overturn Roe v. Wade.  It takes the HOUSE and the SENATE to write a new law to overturn it.  Quit the FEAR Bating...what you are saying is simply not true.</description>

		<description>The right decision was made just like the right decision has be made on the last 2 major supreme court decision.  I don&#039;t believe that this decision stated that you can own any kind of gun that you want but the DC law pretty much made it illegal for a law abiding resident to own a gun in their home.  I have no desire to own a gun and believe that some restrictions are constitutional but I think it&#039;s pretty obvious that the founding fathers wanted the citizens to have the right to own firearms on some level.  The idea that we have a military, police officers, and a national guard doesn&#039;t change the fact that the bill of rights talks about INDIVIDUAL rights and if you read about the framers of the constitution it&#039;s pretty obvious that they were talking about individuals.  Like I said, I believe in restriction on some level but the bill of rights is the document that also protects free speech, freedom of and from religion, the right to choose and so on so this document needs to be respected and followed.  I am proud to be an american when I read our consitution and how progressive and intellegent our founding fathers were.</description>

		<description>Wolf,Can you tell me why Barack is quiet? Democrats are quiet because they know that they can lose elections. However they have a plan to bring liberal judges to the Supreme Court. American people are watching it. We do not want Barack to be our president. he has radical policies. Vote John McCain.</description>

		<description>Enough already,  Clinton/McCain  - we get it.  You&#039;re a republican and want to divide the democrats as much as possible.  You&#039;re sooo smart!  I wish I could have no confidence in my canidate and have to make up lies about the other guy just like you.

I&#039;m not creative enough to make up all sorts of inflammatory and untrue remarks that are aimed at the uneducated slightly racist people that would be swayed into voting for McCain out of unfounded fears.  

Try to be more creative next time.  Or better yet,  go support your own canidate and leave ours alone.  Real democrats will never be fooled into voting for the opposite ideals that Clinton and Obama both share, just to spite the DNC.  We don&#039;t want to live another 8 years in this mess that McCain is just fine with.</description>

		<description>Do we want more liberal justices so next time we lose our 2nd Amendment rights?  Do we need more liberal justices who side with rapists of children and terrorists?  That&#039;s the kind of justices Obama will nominate.  Obama will be America&#039;s worst nightmare.</description>
