2. Turley for Supreme Court Justice! |
|
He's libertarian in his leanings -- a pretty strict constitutionalist, WE NEED HIM!

The man puts the law above any party politics.

9. No, Chimpy, you don't have to agree with it |
|
but it is the law and you do have to follow it.
Oh, and the "further legislation" you talk about, little man, will not make a difference because it will not overturn the Constitution.
Scalia's dissent was just batfuck insane.

11. Doncha just love intelligent discourse? |
|
Y'know, people talking about real news instead of trying to predict the future (even though they did a little of that)
Why didn't they read some of the dissent? Let's hear those nuts defend the idea that restoring the law hurts us somehow. Put sections of the dissent and the ruling side by side to see who has a working brain and who needs to just go. Scalia is like a crazy Mafia Don.
