I know facts and understanding occasionally elude you but the Supreme Court doesnt rule based on political implications but based upon interpretation of the law. They dont write the laws, Congress can make laws that address the issue as long as they stay within the boundaries of the decision.
As not so eloquently explained here...

Sigh .... if you read what I wrote, I wasn't talking at all about why the Supreme Court made this decision, was I?

You say that as though that isnt important

It is important. Notice that this decision was 5:4, but one of the previous decisions it overturned was 6:1.

And one judge here overturned his OWN previous opinion.

You don't find that a little "judicial activisim"?

I'm wondering if there is carbon monoxide poisoning from an old furnace system seeping into their offices, making them a little woozy or something.

C'mon, this came out of nowhere, nobody on the right or left thought SCOTUS would come up with this result, and the court case didn't even ASK for this far-reaching a decision.

It far outstepped what was being examined, and overturns 100 years of multiple other Supreme Court rulings.

It's weird. C'mon, admit it.

I dont think either of are qualified to judge other than regurgitate other peoples opinions. I posted a link to a number of legal experts that thought it was a bold yet correct decision. There was a ruling in the 60's that overturned hundereds of years rulings that seemed to have turned out ok.

well now the secret is out. Libertarians support Wall Street and our biggest corporations. XOM for instance has been very good for me and I trust they would be a great financial backer to present a viewpoint different than what the main-stream media puts out say regarding man's impact regarding Global Warming. I welcome that. Instead of backing a Pres. who is bashing and regulating the hell out of Wall Street I'd support a President who bashes and regulates the hell out of Fannie and Freddie, not back them unconditionally like this idiot announced Christmas eve. I'd want the bonuses given during the years they were backing no money down, poor FICA score loans in the 'hope' that the real estate market would continue to rise and the guy who has had problems paying his bills would some how come around. That would include Rahm Emanuel.
