The court endorsed butt banging. This practice killed 20 million people the rough way. Fauci had a chance to quarantine the early cases after the viral cause of AIDS was found. He refused to do so because of the local culture. The white parts of DC are gayer than San Francisco.

I guess it's a race to evil between the lawyer and doctor professions. The treatment of cholesterol and of high blood pressure emptied the hospitals by 50%. There was doctor unemployment. AIDS filled the hospitals to 105%, caused a doctor shortage.

Wow, that’s actually pretty accurate, except for the “Doctor Shortage” BS which they’ve been talkng about for years (the Dean at my med school told us 1/2 of us would be lucky to get residency positions)
A Heart Surgeon I passed gas for joked that Statins made him sell his Ferrari, a Cardiology friend thinks Statins should be put in the water like Fluoride(more benefits, less risks) they are safer than Tylenol or Asprin

Justice Stevens said that he entrusted Souter to tell him if it was time to resign. In the end, Souter resigned first, though Souter (unlike Stevens) continued to serve as a court of appeals judge.

Souter provided a brief statement upon the death of Stevens:

"He was the soul of principle and an irreplaceable friend."

Souter recently died. He did not, unlike the normal practice, have a public funeral. So no lying in repose, etc.

Souter died? How could they tell?
