That’s incorrect. Each justice has jurisdiction over a circuit court of appeals. This came from Sotomayor’s circuit.

A bit of Great News is always best when read when beginning a New Year. One (or I) pray it holds.

She attended Cardinal Spellman HS in the Bronx, a very Catholic school. Irish Catholics, Italians, a good friend of mine graduated from there same year as she did.
He’s also Catholic.

Upon reflection, I agree with you.

May be reading this wrong BUT my take is her faith ranks above her political stand. If he gives her trouble she may surprise him (and all of us) with her independence from 0
Checks and balance? This time it’s CHECK She has as much power as 0 at this time. He may learn not to challenge a woman’s power that he no longer has any control over.

She won’t stop SSM in Utah, though. There’s a study showing that the Supremes essentially rule by what’s popular with the voters or by private whim. We’re way past careful, thoughtful Constitutional rulings. Wickard proved that.

That is exactly why she delayed it.

I hope that’s true. But I won’t be shocked if it’s not.

Hmmm. How long before the SC hears the challenge now, I wonder?

Maybe the authorities can distribute the excess contraceptives among the urban blighted population. Give it away for free now rather than pay millions later to support the unwanted freeloaders that will be born to the mamas-got-several-daddys.

Unfettered access to birth control beats abortions or bringing yet another welfare case into this world.

That thin glimmer of integrity might just be fear of Pope Frankie. What if his Popeness actually made a judgement about good or evil occasionally?

Seriously people. There is NO STOPPING this abomination known as obamacare. In fact it is going to get worse. If you do not know Jesus Christ you'd better get to know him or else you are screwed. The Antichrist (aka - barak O bamah) and the False Prophet (aka - Pope Francis) are alive and well. Lucifer's New World Order is in place and ready to be implemented. The United States and the world cannot survive what is coming.

Remember people, our fight is not against flesh and blood but against powers and principalities. Satan knows he has but a short time. He's NOT going to take it easy on you. He does NOT like you. He is not interested in your survival. Don't believe me? Just look at where he is. He's playing golf in Hawaii while millions are losing their jobs, healthcare and freedom.

Let he that has ears hear, let he that has understanding understand. Get right with God and protect your families people. Put your hope in God not in some oligarchy like the Supreme Court. They are not on our side.

Why the almost-stroke-of-midnight ruling? It’s not as if this sneaked up on anyone.

NYE document dump?

From our viewpoint yes they do need more headaches.

From their point of view they don’t need any more, and that is why this decision was made.
