Have you ever had a civics class?

Yes. I guess in your mind that qualifies me as someone who knows how the government works. Nevermind my time spent working on Capitol Hill.

From reading your posts, you have a distinct misunderstanding of the role of the Supreme Court, and how and why it will take or not take a case.

Correct. I have no understand of how or why they decide to hear or not hear some cases, as they don't give reason most of the time, so unless you are the amazing Kreskin, neither do you.

You have a 2-1 majority of constructionists agreeing 9-0 with some of the most liberal justices to see the bench. Notice how there was no dissenting opinion?

Well you have 9 people with huge legal egos about to have their power reduced by half when they start packing the court unless they hand down decisions appeasing the left and I think I can add 1+1. Did you take math too or just civics?

FWIW, I am not really commenting on the ruling, just on the shitty nature of the court in general and how politicized it has become. It amazes me how they appoint one conservative after another and they turn left or at the very least moderate, yet none of the liberal justices ever turn right or even centrist after appointment. I wonder why that is? JK, I really don't wonder.
