If it does go down. It won’t be close. It’ll could be unanimous. Lots of people are signaling that the election would go better for everyone if it was struck down. Kagan is now a Justice. It no longer matters how she got there, she can’t be removed because she didn’t play ball with Obama. Sotomayer too. History isn’t going to judge them on whether they carried water for Obama, but on whether women on the bench was good for the country. I was shocked at the EPA decision being unanimous.
If it really is an absurd anti-constitutional monstrosity, they all may kill it. Passed the way it was passed, it was a very killable bill. Scalia even joked as to whether he would be required to read all 2700 pages in order to rule on it.
I’m curious as to whether the minority would have to write an opinion if it does go down 8-1 or 7-2. I’m not sure they do.
I guess I was doing my rip van winkle routine because I don’t know anything about an EPA ruling. How bout a 30 word synopsis?
