Add to the list buying alcohol and renting a video.
Must be one or the other, or something equally humiliating.

Interesting questions from 7 years ago.....

Does anyone know if they have taken a homo. marriage case, and if so, which one(s)?
Play on “of Assisi”
It was either one hell of a bribe or pictures/video of him doing something in a hotel room.
I am not at all comfortable with anything important coming before this court now that it has three distinct factions: 4 liberals, 4 conservatives, and 1 moron.
Between a dead girl and a live boy? My guess is the latter.
I WILL say this. Up until Roberts took his OWN shoddy interpretation of this case (an intellectually contemptible one), he had been a steadfast conservative guy. I was MORTIFIED not just for his ruling, but the ludicrous methodology he employed to arrive at his opinion.
Something smells to high heaven!
NOT requiring proof of citizenship to vote is similar to conducting a driver’s test for a driver’s license in a car that does not go out of first gear. Yes the candidate is driving, but no, they cannot fully apply the law to determine if the candidate can really drive.
Forget Roberts, this one has Kennedy’s patronizing open-borders attitude all over it. Disaster in the making.
It turns out that the Obamacare ruling actually makes it easier to repeal it since, as a tax, it comes under the rules about reconciliation. Thus, it cannot be filabustered.
Roberts did not get the law off the hook.

Compared to striking the law down, he sure did. Only now we have his decision that the Feds can force any unconstitutional garbage they want as long as they use a tax to enforce it.
Of course he will. After all, when he upheld Obamacare, he mentioned something along the lines of allowing the law to stand because it was passed by the people's elected representatives. /sarc
(If that argument ever has any merit at all, why would the SCOTUS ever strike down any law? Oh, but of course; STATE laws are always subject to Federal scrutiny! So, never mind. Arizona is screwed.)
Thanks for the info.
It does not matter what The Disaster calls the tax, it is still a tax, so Roberts was not wrong about that. I have not read the decision and was quite disappointed by it but from what I have discerned the decision is centered on the fact that a tax was passed.
