Here's what I'd like to say to Justice Breyer: Stay healthy. Cut out red meat. Get plenty of exercise. Take your vitamins. Stay alive and don't even think about retiring until we elect a sane president and a Congress with some cojones.

The people of this country are slowly coming to realize how morally bankrupt, and how unnecessary, the death penalty is. They understand what it means to belong to that increasingly small and unsavory fraternity of nations -- like China, Iran and Saudi Arabia -- that still executes their citizens. Talk about being known by the company one keeps!

So, Justice Breyer, go get a physical. And be careful on your way to the doctor's office. We need you.
