KernelSlanders posted:They are following the law. In this case, Congress passed a law that says all Federal statutes have a religious exemption unless the law is narrowly tailored to address a compelling government interest. Congress also passed a law saying that birth control will be included in a health plan offered by a company if they wish to avoid various penalties. There's no reason to be so drat obtuse, if it were really that clear cut do you think SCOTUS would have granted cert?

ErIog posted:The important thing to remember is that the SCOTUS process is loving old, and it only became practical recently to make entire edit histories available to the public. Keeping every revision on paper in perpetuity as some are suggesting they should have been doing is madness. I can find the documents recording and certifying the installation, repair, certification and so on for every one of the millions of parts on a 747. We could do this before computers were cheap and easy. That's for each and every plane. If that could be done decades ago, it would be trivial for SCOTUS. EDIT: If it's the case that it simply needs to be public, then it's even more ridiculous.

Evil Fluffy posted:Unless multiple conservative justices die or retire(lol) with a Dem* in the WH and with Dem control over the Senate, that lobby effectively controls the country for the next several decades. Why in the hell do you think “The West Wing” is somehow related to real life? You’re literally making poo poo up and then getting mad about it. Big Hubris posted:They invented and cling to a conspiracy theory about Nader being a plant to ignore the conspiracy that stole the election. Gore flinching that hard suggests he knew, so they also ignore that. I don’t recall seeing you do anything about it. Maybe consider that this was for the oldest posters here one of the first presidential elections they voted in and might not be all that connected to the so-called leftists who would have swung the election for lack of a little more support.

Evil Fluffy posted:What the hell does the West Wing have to do with this? The SCOTUS and judiciary in general is stacked with a bunch of right wingers selected specifically for their political views which includes them all being anti-choice. The GOP (correctly) sees the courts as their best defense against change since loading it with a lot of middle aged extremists means they ultimately control things because judicial reform is dead in the water thanks to Republicans and shithead The bullshit claim made about some big mean liberal nominating a conservative justice “out of fairness” is lifted wholesale from The West Wing, numbnuts. But hey, whatever it takes to keep that fake rage going I guess.

VitalSigns posted:Seems unlikely that if any blue states still have defunct anti-abortion laws on the books that they would even bother to enforce them and/or wouldn't repeal them immediately. I don’t see how this proves your case that “blue state libs wouldn’t care”.

Evil Fluffy posted:Not everyone watches and/or gives a poo poo about The West Wing like you do I guess so grats on being an rear end in a top hat looking to pick a fight? I guess Democrats have never nominated garbage conservatives to the court due to idiotic "decorum" and garbage traditions right? So there's no reason to worry that similar idiocy will happen again. You literally took something from a lovely TV show, pretended it was real and got mad over it. Learn the difference between television and reality.
