I’m confused. Wasn’t there a lot of caterwauling about Bush’s nominees being conservative and how that was going to mortally tilt the Court’s views from now until forever?

How, then, did they get in the business of handing down demented liberal judgments that 50% of the country have no intention of following? First citizen’s rights for alien terrorist POW’s and now protecting child rapists. The next thing the Supremes need to do is try to ban handguns and then there really will be a civil war in the U.S.

There *are* procedures spelled out in the system to over-ride the Supreme Court. Too bad the progressives in Congress have such a bad case of BDS that they probably can’t be persuaded to join with the White House to pass some legislation to teach the Supremes some manners and humility.
