I am so adjective that I verb nouns!

No Rick, let's try this one more time -- your positing of judicial activism is neither what I said nor what I implied nor what can reasonably and intelligently be inferred from what I wrote nor want I want nor what I think best. Our system of redress in the US allows for citizens to appeal ultimately to the highest court in the land. That is what happened. As it was, in this case, unsuccessfully by a very narrow margin. The Supreme Court obviously thought that the case deserved a hearing. None of this suggests judicial activism. I do think it was a bad decision, and I think that big corporations will have a field day over the little guy with it. You seem to just be grinding that axe because you must think that I am somehow in contradiction with what you assume to be my principles of jurisprudence. Give it a rest. |
