Also notice who voted with the majority on the court in that case to affirm the feds over the states in medical marijuana. It was a Stevens opinion, joined by Ginsburg, Souter, Breyer, and Kennedy. We’re told that medical marijuana is a “liberal” issue but the court’s liberal block voted to restrict it, true to their authoritarian ways.
Don’t forget Scalia, who concurred in the decision of the court but wrote his own opinion. The main dissent was by O’Connor, joined by Rhenquist and Thomas, and Thomas also wrote a separate dissent.
