Just thought i'd check in and see how the most dedicated believer in Judicial supremacy is doing.

I'm waiting to see if you cite precedent in support of the latest rulings.

No new Obama eligibility/natural born citizen threads in a month.

Whenever the courts are involved, you win some and you lose some. The legal term for precedent is “stare decisis” ( as you well know). The term is in Latin because its a legal concept that has been around for more than two thousand years.

The highest court in the land SETS precedent as often as it “stands by things already decided.”
