It is nice to see the peoples' representatives doing their jobs instead of cowering before nine (or in the case of Lawrence, 5) unelected dictators. If only our reps in Congress and the White House would show as much courage.

I have always wanted one of these Constitutional "scholars" to show me where in the Constitution the SCOTUS is empowered to be the arbiter/interpreter of what is and isn't Constitutional. Because logic would dictate it lies within the executive branch's powers. Unfortunately, the Court used Marbury vs. Madison to seize this power and nobody (except Andrew Jackson) ever attempted to stop them.
