''Our island or lone ranger mentality is beginning to change,'' Ginsburg told the American Constitution Society, a liberal lawyers group holding its first convention.

Just a heads up on the evolution of Constitutional Law.

Hey, I'm not sure that's entirely fair to the biology textbooks. From the article...

The justices referred to the findings of foreign courts this summer in their ruling that states may not punish gay couples for having sex.

I think we're talking here about unnatural selection.

John, individual justices need a larger set of precedents to pick and choose from. You want to constrict their pallet. How can they be great artists with truncated materials? How can they expand our minds, and our hearts, and lead us into the Elysian fields?

Moving right along out of the stratosphere, Ginsberg needs more precedents because she is as dumb as rocks, and too stupid to skillfully manipulate the existing ones. Maybe she should do some brown bag lunches with Justice Kennedy for the next decade or so, until she gets the hang of it.

OK, so my post is worthless. Sue me.
