Amicus curiae briefs: Information the Supreme Court uses to decide cases submitted by those who have no credentials and don’t know what they are talking about.
The Supreme Court has to listen to Stephen Colbert because he has a doctorate from The University of Narnia Online! They have to listen to me too, for I have a degree from the University of Wisconsin – Oshkosh which is almost as good.
I wonder why it is that the five Catholic Republicans on the Supreme Court let this gay marriage thing slip by into soon becoming the law of the land? Did Scalia, Thomas and Alito realize Kennedy was going to swing the court for Gay Marriage? Did they not want to go down in history as not only rejecting the 14th Amendment but being defined as bigots for the rest of their lives? Or do they think that this is such an affront to the Southern States that they will fire upon Ft Sumter which will change everything?
As a Supreme Court watcher, what’s new is that there are no longer just the TWO right-wing lunatics on the court, Alito now makes it THREE.
