Their unusually strident dissent written by Sotomayor said the Wheaton injunction threatened the credibility of the Hobby Lobby decision.

"Those who are bound by our decisions usually believe they can take us at our word," Sotomayor wrote. "Not so today."

The point of the dissent? "It is not the business of this court to ensnare itself in the government's ministerial handling of its affairs in the manner it does here," Sotomayor wrote.

Flat out telling The One that the SC decision is meaningless and that he should just ignore it.

Are they really admitting they agreed to vote one way in one case so that other justices would vote with them in another case?

Impeach them.

Have we ever had a good Supreme Court Justice who was female? Sandra Day O’Connor was almost as bad as the three succubi we have on the bench today.

I don't have to imagine it. It's happening right now.

In her confirmation hearing she told us straight out she was a racist sexist.

"Wise Latina"

Naturally, she is viscerally opposed to an opinion formulated by five rational, unbiased, and competent judges.

O stranger, tell the Lacedaemonians that we lie here, obedient to their command.

Listen, O isles, unto me; and hearken, ye people, from far; The LORD hath called me from the womb; from the bowels of my mother hath he made mention of my name. (Isaiah 49:1 KJV)

And here I thought that the Supreme Court was supposed to interpret the laws in light of the Constitution and act as a check on the power of the other two branches of government.

Sotomayor proves herself to be a true petulant mushbrain and legal (if no other way) lightweight who will vote with her ovaries instead of her self-called “wise” mind. (By the way, has ANYONE else ever spoken of her as “wise”? Just asking.)

She’s the very paradigm of an affirmative action appointment. And THIS, ladies and gentlemen is what we get when empower “diversity”...which, exactly like global warming, is the greatest unproven mendacious pile of liberal mush ever inflicted on a populace that was gullibly willing to give her a chance.

The Left is all pissed that it cannot completely force its depraved agenda down our throats.

I don't understand what they are saying. The three Marxist ladies (members of the Supreme Court due to affirmative action) voted the same way for both cases (against the right of the individual and the right of life. Abortion uber alles for these folks).
Sounds like they are just having a snit fest.

As far as impeachment - would that we could. Of course Holder and Obama should be first in line, but the Republicrats will continue to give them a free pass.

Any elected or appointed federal official who is not a Senator nor a Congressman may be impeached. That includes Supreme Court Justices.

The circumstances for all are "high crimes and misdemeanors".

Tough.

Birth control and abortion ARE NOT GOD GIVEN RIGHTS.

These women Justices are NARAL surrogates acting like politicians in black robes. God Save This Honorable Court!
