Wow, just read the ruling. There are some pretty great passages in there.

Ginsburg is ill, so I'm guessing she's going to retire fairly soon. sigh. Wish I disagreed with Suela about Scalia, but she's right like a thing that is right.

She just has to stick it out until after the election. I hope she can.

I wish I were wrong, but between him & Thomas, one of them is going to die in the saddle, just out of resentment.

She wouldn't be the first justice to hold on for such a thing.

Thomas can't retire, he makes too much money selling his vote. Or, technically, profiting off the vote he was going to cast anyway.

I'm still hoping that Thomas resigns soon due to ethics/conflict of interest violations.

I see no indication that he possesses the ability to be shamed into anything. And in the run-up to the election, nobody's going to try to make him.

I'm still reading the Prop 8 decision, but I'm intrigued that the judges have based their decision on the narrowest-possible argument: that Prop 8 took away a fundamental right from gay couples, even if they only had the right for 143 days.

The usefulness of this narrow decision is that if it gets overturned after a hearing en banc, or at the Supreme Court, it won't be a death blow to the fight for marriage equality nationwide. The sequence of events in California is so tortured that one might be able to distinguish any ruling associated with Prop 8.

Newt or Schrute - yes, the one from "The Office."

Post your scores.

I'm hoping he dies of a motherfucking heart attack. Just ascend descend already.

That's right, I'll take joyous satisfaction in his demise. That's my evil right there.

I have a British friend (she grew up in Yorkshire) who has stated publicly she will dance on Maggie Thatcher's grave.

... I'm afraid to ask her what she thinks of Iron Lady.

I am actually at the point of wanting to run away and cry. I'm topped out for the day. Last straw has been achieved. I know everyone thinks it's copacetic to tease me (my phone is busted), but it's not. Not right now.
