Okay, This is Just Depressing...

I'm sitting in the library, staring at the clock, waiting for C-SPAN3 to get the oral argument of today's Hamdan v Rumsfeld case posted on their website.

What the hell has happened to my life?

EDIT: Quite a case. Hamdan's attorney Neal Katyal was asked fewer questions and interrupted fewer times than Solicitor General Paul Clement. Katyal's sparring partner was Justice Scalia (surprise, surprise) with Justice Alito asking a few critical questions as well. Justice Breyer was especially hard on Clement for not fully answering his questions. I stand by my prediction that I made in the comments of the Scalia post: 5-3, government loses.

The AP has their story up here.

I eagerly await the coming drama.
