Sorry Walt, but that is simply false.

That is your opinion, which is at odds with that of the current Chief Justice. Your whole position on this is nothing but a snooze.

But which is perfectly consistent with standing court precedent, the historical situation itself, and the rulings of two chief justices. Two still beats one, Walt. Try again.
