I'm not altogether convinced that RBG participated, wither.

8-0
Pretty impressive win in any case before SCOTUS.
LOL!
Rush has more 'intellectual firepower' in his little finger than they have collectively.
Seesh, what a bunch of morons.
"High school students can appreciate the difference between speech a school sponsors and speech the school permits because legally required to do so," [Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr.] wrote. "Surely students have not lost that ability by the time they get to law school."
"Chief Justice John G. Roberts Jr. In patient cadences, the kind you use in addressing a slightly dull child"
I would have characterized it as "addressing" a spoiled child, one that has been trained by the Court that he can usually get his own way no matter the quality of the legal logic behind his demand.
Maybe times have really changed, but I think the jury still out.
"The vote was 8-to-0 against them — a shutout, a rout, a humiliation."
It just doesn't get any better than that!
Actually it was neither. It was a test of a law passed by Congress.
It has very little to do with gay rights. The schools in question would be trying to keep military recruiters off campus regardless of the DOD homosexual policy.
Last time I checked there isn't any part of the Constitution guaranteeing federal funding for colleges. When the federal government cares to hand out funding they can set policies as they see fit.
""Of them, the only one that seems utterly implausible is that three dozen law schools, 900 law professors, the court of appeals, and a dozen top law firms are all inept at connecting the dots of Supreme Court precedents.""
Utterly implausible? Guess again. The law schools and professors hate the military, period. And the dozen top law firms will say anything you want them to...for a fee.
I'm not altogether convinced that RBG participated, wither.
wither = either
Actually..., it does (but won't)! There could have been a pleading for damages as a result of a frivolous lawsuit and the SCOTUS could have REALLY smacked down the whining bedwetter leftest bar!!!
I asked my daughter's dogs, and they concurred.

9-0?
Was ginsburg sleeping again??
Hmmm???
That's pretty tough to accomplish when the SC has to give its permission to hear the case in the first place.
I bet I got a zit on my ass more important than Yale is now
Sadly, the same "top law professors" who lost 8 to 0 are still employed...attempting to "educate" young minds about how our Law works.
The reality is that the radicalized law schools of today simply don't understand "The Law."
What they understand is ideology...which is quite different from the law (i.e. written statute) itself.
