Ive been away for a few days, how have the liberals reacted to this ruling?

I wandered over to DU (a stranger in a strange land moment for me). They are outraged by the decision. They are also disheartened that their "good liberal" justices voted for property confiscation while the "evil fascists" voted for property rights.

Sometimes the definition of a conservative is a liberal that got mugged. Which is pretty much what just happened.

But I have thought for awhile that lots of liberals don't really know what they think, haven't actually thought it through to the point where they realize that socialism is inherently totalitarian. Or understood that if government has great power, it might not always be used as they'd wish.
