With options like those, there is no real choice. I'd rather the country stagnate and do nothing under Obama than swing hard right under Palin.

There are retards everywhere.  What % of Americans thought that Obama could walk on water and heal the blind?  :contract:

Well I've never seen him wet and everyone around him seems to be able to see.
I've given it serious thought. I must scorn the ways of my family, and seek a Japanese woman to yield me my progeny. He shall live in the lands of the east, and be well tutored in his sacred trust to weave the best traditions of Japan and the Sacred South together, until such time as he (or, indeed his house, which will periodically require infusion of both Southern and Japanese bloodlines of note) can deliver to the South it's independence, either in this world or in space.  -Lettow April of 2011

Raz is right. -MadImmortalMan March of 2017

Nonetheless, the USSC decision still probably is in lead for worst Supreme Court opinion of this century IMHO.

My vote goes to Kelo. It's not Dredd Scott, but it's bad. Look up what has happened to that property since...

Kelo was based on pretty solid precedent though.  The Supreme Court became the popular villain in that case, but the CT legislature were the ones who actually did it.

Yep.  Using eminent domain to take property for developers is terrible policy IMO, but I it's not the role of the Court to decdie if laws reflect good or bad policy.  On reflection, I think that they got this one right.  I'm not sure if the feds using emient domain like this would pass muster, but the states can do it.
