[Republican Wildcat]

Did your mother ever teach you that the sin of omission is as bad as a lie? Apparently not.

You do recall that almost every Republican in the Congress opposed this bill, right? In fact, Hastert refused to even allow it to come up for a vote. Nearly every Democrat and a small handful of Republicans joined to get 218 signatures to force the House to take up the measure over the leadership's objection.

Furthermore, Republicans did not control the Senate at the time, so the bill was not passed by a "Republican controlled Congress." In case you missed it in school, the Senate is part of Congress.

As for the Court, most of the Republican members there also opposed this on Constitutional grounds. The ruling passed by one vote, 5-4. All of the 4 dissenters were Republican appointees. None of them were Democrats, and indeed, the Democrat appointees were on the majority side of the opinion.

The President should have vetoed the bill, but otherwise your argument fails on all counts and appears to be quite inaccurate and perhaps deliberately so. You lose. Farewell.

Well, you need to redo your math. There are only two Democrat appointees on the Supreme Court - Ginsburg and Breyer.
