This ruling was 5-4. When you sit out of presidential elections you also sit out of the Supreme Court nominees.

This ruling should have been 9-0

Speaking of prayer, we should pray to and petition Our Lord Jesus to watch over Justices Roberts, Thomas, Kennedy, Scalia and Alito that they may have good health and continue on the bench; and that Roberts and Kennedy do not stray from the true meaning of our Republic’s Constitution, and to always interpret it so to allow the most rights to the citizens and keep the government’s powers in check.

If anything happens to these five, and Obama gets to name a successor, then decisions like this will go 4-5 rather than 5-4!
