That is why I stated without hesitation when you and Wlat appealed to the decision that it is without any foundation legally or constitutionally.

And that is why I can state, without any hesitation of my own, that your belief that the decision is without foundation legally or constitutionally is meaningless. Your opinion has no legal standing at all. The only opinions that matter were those of the Chief Justice and the four associate justices who agreed with him that the actions of the Texas legislature were without standing in the law. They were null, they violated the Constitution, they were illegal, however you want to put it. That fact will not change regardless of how loudly you state their decision to be, in effect, making legislation or how often you proclaim that the Constituion doesn't say what the court said it did.

Non-Sequitur: So what you're saying is that the Constitution and Federal law don't matter, so long as five guys on the bench say they are whatever you want them to be. The fact that there are Americans who honestly believe this is a more severe threat to our republic and her ideals and principles than anything the Soviets ever did to us.

My opinion in this case has more of a legal and Constitutional basis than the opinion of Justice Chase. I can cite the Constitution and Federal law to back up mine, he couldn't, and neither can you.

That is a really scary statement if you think about it. What you're saying is you don't care what the Constitution or Federal law say, you'll just follow any SCOTUS ruling as long as YOU think its correct. No thought to what the law is, or what our founding principles are.
