ObamaCare SCOTUScare: Rule of Law is dead, Long Live Rule of Philosopher Kings [Darleen Click]
SCOTUS rules that no matter how a law is written, there will always be a judge to decide what is in our own best interest. Chief Justice John Roberts, who was the key vote in 2012, again voted with his liberal colleagues in support of the law. Justice Anthony Kennedy, a dissenter in 2012, was part of the majority on Thursday. “Congress passed the Affordable Care Act to improve health
SCOTUS upholds Texas voter id law [Darleen Click]
Of course, cue the three most leftist judges on the panel to snivel about discrimination. The Supreme Court said Saturday that Texas can use its controversial new voter identification law for the November election. A majority of the justices rejected an emergency request from the Justice Department and civil rights groups to prohibit the state from requiring voters to produce certain forms of photo identification in order to cast ballots.

SCOTUS rulings: thoughts and open thread [Darleen Click]
My admittedly non-lawyer thoughts, based on what I’ve been reading and hearing not from the invested Left narrators … The essence of the DOMA ruling was that the Fed has no business telling states how they should define marriage, but accept for federal benefits what is legal marriage per each individual state. Just how it will effect a same-sex couple from, say, Alabama who goes and gets married in Massachusetts
“I see victims” [Darleen Click]
It’s always illuminating to read a Left-liberal trying to explain conservatives, though not in ways the Leftist intends. Recently, NYTimes columnist Nicholas Kristof took a stab at it. Conservatives may not like liberals, but they seem to understand them. In contrast, many liberals find conservative voters not just wrong but also bewildering.
