Can you explain how a right invented by the court has more protection than an explicit right? Or why enerated powers is a dead letter in the law? Or why is OK to disregard precedent when it conflicts with your agenda. I can.
The claim that courts do not make policy is absurd on its face.. indeed that is exactly what case law is.
The best predictor of the result of a controversial case is the effect on the social policy most favored by the majority of the court.
This is why much court advocacy is truly ad hominem in the original meaning..
Courts make policy today.. they always did. If logic were the guide there would be no need for diverisity on the court. Math and logic are not maters opinion.
The court will give you a plessy if plessy is needed for the times.. it will give you a Roe if Roe is needed.. This is why the left lobies the court.
Of course when the left has an issue with a 5-4 decision its honorable disent but when the right does its recatonary hate speech. No sale..
The court is not now, and never has been, apolitical. Time to feel the heat Roberts court ... the peasants are not buying the act..
100% spot ON. 7 for 7 means great job in my book.
