Yeah right
"The judiciary should not have a check on the legislative or executive branches. "
These are the words of Sen. Jeff Sessions this morning in an article regarding his opinion of the U.S Supreme Court decision last week regarding Guantanamo prisoners.
As the story goes, the Supremes decided 5-4 that the U.S. Government is violating the rights of terrorism suspects as Guantanamo Bay by not giving them a right to argue in Civil court.

This diary deals with the discrepancy in female health care at VA Hospitals. I am extremely mindfull of this being that we have a lot of Senators that are terrible in terms of supporting our veterans. I have started an act blue page to let them know they cannot give us lip service this election cycle.
Please go to my act blue page and donate to help make a difference. I have had this page up for three weeks and come very close to already reaching my goal. I plan on increasing this goal with your help.
