[RKBA Democrat]

Today is the day.

The folks at SCOTUS blog will be providing a live blog to follow developments as quickly as possible.

[Publius Valerius]

Yes. My earlier excitement has been dimmed by seeing that Scalia wrote the Morgan Stanley opinion.

[2 Kool 2 Be 4-Gotten]

It’s usurpation of power on the grandest scale imaginable - and no one can ever question - none dare call it judicial tyranny.

Better for the country is that the decision strikes down the Second. Why? Then we can treat the main disease: A cancer in the Judiciary.

Tom Goldstein - The Davis opinion does invalidate the Millionaires Amendment -- both the contribution limits and the disclosure requirements.

Sounds like the first step in overturning McCain /Feingold.

[rosenfan]

The suspense is killing me! (I hope it lasts...)

[Blue Turtle]

Let’s not forget...the same SC has protected terrorists, child rapists, and killers.

[hoagy62]

I wonder what this FERC ruling means for us in Western washington? Ah, well...that’s Snohomish County, and I’m in Pierce. Their problem. Moving on.....

[mewzilla]

The devil’s in the details. Hope they’ve got an Evelyn Wood grad on standby to go through the fine print.

“The speculation was that Scalia would write Heller—this is bad.”

Is there any justice who hasn’t authored a majority opinion from the day Heller was argued?

[traviskicks]

I ran across them online somewhere sometime ago, and thought it would be appropriate for this occasion :), however I was unable to find them online and so found the stored images on my computer and uploaded it to my site; so, in other words, please use them. :)

[IMissPresidentReagan]

Now I’m worried, because Stevens is the most senior Justice.

[mware]

10:11 Tom Goldstein - Still waiting.

[coloradan]

But do you know how long it takes to get a new cancer treatment approved?

[NewJerseyJoe]

       SHAZAM!

[unixfox]

It only takes 5 men to rule over 270 million.

PATHETIC!

[mondonico]
