The reconsideration is actually the neatest part of this ruling. What SCOTUS is saying, in a decidedly school marmish tone is: “You were wrong. Now show us you know you were wrong. In your own words.”
My thought is you can’t school liberal minded zealots in anything. You beat them down, stomp them and cut off all avenues of petty response. In my opinion, it was a mistake.
Ha!
That's largely true, but I think a slightly more charitable way of putting it is, "um... guys... you totally overlooked our recent decision on this matter. Now, if you can manage to address that and still reach the same finding, we'd love to read it as we we enjoy a good laugh."
