According to news reports, Chief Justice Rehnquist is back at the Court after battling thyroid cancer.

Rehnquist has undergone a tracheotomy, chemotherapy and radiation, a treatment plan typically associated with an especially aggressive form of thyroid cancer.

The Chief Justice intends to administer the oath of office to President Bush at the January 20 inauguration. No word on whether the Chief Justice plans to retire this term.

    I don't care for Rehnqist at all but I hope he beats the cancer. I hope Bush and boys don't have to many people fighting against the plans of his business and political ideals beaten and jailed here for talking out against some evil non ideas of bush and business. stop the bush Mecha ideals of mass murdered, for big money and total corruption. think that is nut's start reading about it.

    If he's feeling like the chemo patients I've cared for, he's just on his last legs. The last hurrah, I guess. I, for one, wouldn't be spending my remaining days on Earth sick as a dog and still plugging away at work.

    He better remember to wear his full-face plastic visor for when Bushliar guffaws (when asked to swear to uphold the C.). Another dose of that traitor's spittle could push him over the line, on top of this disease of the throat, the organ of truth telling. This Chief Justice has defamed our laws and damaged our nation more than any other CJ in memory. What does it profit a Chief Justice to gain the Executive for a scoundrel? You never see a U-Haul following the hearse, William. --
