>>Chief Justice William H. Rehnquist, writing for the majority<<

So, where's the "minority report?" Oh, it was 8-0. Never mind.

This thing was harassment from the beginning.

The Supreme Court ruled Wednesday that a federal racketeering law was improperly used to punish aggressive anti-abortion protesters, a major victory for people who regularly block clinic doors.

Chuckie and Hillary will NOT be happy about this. The Dems should replace their party's symbol from a donkey to a fetus with a slash through it.

Not only a victory for us -- but also (I hope) a first step in rolling back the insidious abuses of RICO!

This begs the question. What can they be punished for? Tresspassing? Disturbing the peace? Does this mean we can block the doors again or what?

The Supreme Court holds the key to the survival or death of this Republic. There are enough cases in the appellate pipeline at any one time to either usurp or to solidify, for a foreseeable future, the founders' view of their Constitution.

It will not happen with our power gourging Congress, nor through a charismatic executive. Short of sunsetting every law currently on the books and starting from the beginning, the only hope for the future of this country is a Supreme Court which interprets law against both the expressed language of the Constitution and the writings of both those who proposed it (Federalist Papers) and those who warned against it and predicted its consequences (Anti-Federalist Papers).

In considering abortion, the question is not when Human Life begins, but how and when it will be ended.

Hooray, 8-0!

What do you say now, Poohbah? Is this a decision in favor of violence?

Woo Hoo! Sanity at the top of the judicial system.

I think most of the liberals on the courts were able to imagine RICO suits being brought against left-wing protesters and did the right thing.
