Some tenuous connection to a politically fraught issue does not justify abdicating our judicial duty, Thomas added. If anything, neutrally applying the law is all the more important when political issues are in the background.
I agree 100%
And there you go! Is this a sign of things to come?
Roberts seems compromised, can’t count on him. Now this guy everyone carried water for?
Say it ain’t so!
Why is Planned Parenthood even around, it’s only job is Murder
Here's a better example that isn't fraught with controversy due to the subject of the funding:
Suppose the Federal government requires any highway project built on the National Highway System to be designed and constructed with 12-foot travel lanes. If a state gets Federal money to build a new highway that will be part of the NHS, they can't turn around and complain that they should have the right under the U.S. Constitution to build it with 11-foot lanes. Arguing against these Federal regulations about highway design on "states rights" grounds -- while using the Federal money to build the road -- is ludicrous.
If states don't want Planned Parenthood to get Medicaid funding, they should just stop accepting Medicaid funding, period.
NOT ABORTION-RELATED! How many times must this be said??
Some Catholic.....PUKE!
Congrats on posting an article from a known, good, news source.
I get so tired of FReepers posting articles from blog sites you’ve never heard of before. And usually click bait.
This sucks...so sorry that I supported Kavanaugh. He’s another Roberts.
He’s trying to avoid Impeachment. Every man for himself
Even if Kavanaugh went for it, John Roberts would have been the liberal vote that blocked it. John Roberts is really questionable.
Is Kavanaugh turning into a John Roberts clone, he of the s**t-eating grin?
No matter who is appointed, no matter who is elected, we lose. The unborn lose. May God judge this nation ever so severely.
