Yes. But having been shot down already at two levels what chance do you think it has of being taken up?
With all due deference to the separation of powers, he began, the court last week reversed a century of law that I believe will open the floodgates for special interests including foreign corporations to spend without limit in our elections. Alito made a dismissive face, shook his head repeatedly and appeared to mouth the words not true or possibly simply not true....
One never knows...
But did the court in essence acknowledge the existence of this Soetoro person? If they did, then...
” ...having been shot down already at two levels what chance do you think it has of being taken up?”
You might ask the New Haven firemen about that, and how agenda-driven judges populating various levels of the judiciary (think Sonja Sotomayer) can affect those lower level decisions.
The Court takes only @ 50 cases a year out of 6000+ petitions, so any case brought to it is fighting severe odds. HOWEVER, virtually every case brought there is brought because it has been shot down at two lower level courts.
