        Since my own handwriting, I was able to read this. For all my hate for the Bush admin, I admit this was a really nice letter. He was extremely nice here and complimentary to O’Connor.

        I meant to write, “my own handwriting is bad” It’s so bad that while dating my wife, she would hold onto the cards I sent her until the next date so I could read to her what I wrote.

        Yes, he appointed Samuel Alito to fill her spot, making Justice O'Connor cringe.

        So many words our own @POTUS doesn't even recognize: blessings, meaningful, thank-you, warmth, etc....

        At least Trump knows how to pronounce "nuclear," but I can't think of anything else good about him.

        Dear Sandra, I'm sitting here in the Oval, early on the Fourth, thinking about the blessings of living in America and then I thought about our phone call last week. First, I am honored to be the President to whom you spoke about leaving the bench. Thank you for such a warm and...
