Living and breathing in the Second City
From Hit & Run:
“I don’t think he’s ever had one,” Barr said. “He cannot run and hide from the fact that he is McCain of McCain-Feingold. How anybody whose signature piece of legislation is the most anti-freedom, anti-First Amendment piece of legislation passed in congress in generations, can, with a straight face, claim that they will support jurists who are ‘conservative’ is beyond me. Clearly, he’s not going to—or common sense tells us he’s not going to appoint somebody to the Supreme Court or to a lesser federal court, somebody whose philosophy is going to lead them to strike down McCain-Feingold, which is his signature piece of legislation.”
The fog comes
on little cat feet.
It sits looking
over harbor and city
on silent haunches
and then moves on.
