Yeah, "right of privacy" has you control freaks all in a tizzy

I'm a decentralized power freak, actually. In any case, privacy is not the basis of this ruling. It's the newly discovered "right" of the "expression of essential humanity."

Do you have any idea what that means? I don't, nor do I believe that there is anything approaching a consensus on that, or whether it's really even a "right." It's a complete fabrication by Kennedy and the majority to get the outcome they wanted, regardless of the Constitution or stare decisis.

A good horse whipping on Kennedy and O'Connor would be a good start. God, I can't wait for her to retire. She has been a total embarassment lately. Maybe it's the drugs she is taking.

Sure. It means exactly what Justices O'Connor and Kennedy tell us it means. The scope of our rights is now controlled by nine unelected judges instead of principles of law. We are becoming a nation of men and not laws.

Does this mean people have a right to have sex? If someone is ugly and lonely, should the FedGov subsidize their habit of visiting prostitutes?
