Thank God for Leo- because I can't say a word in the face of such alarmist fear mongering attitudes.

Yep, it's gonna get ugly. But as for Leo's concerns ... I can't see how we can get much further from the real meaning of emminent domain or state's rights. Those things have been obliterated, and there's hardly much worse that can be done by any succeeding slate of Supremes.

In the ideal world, all our justices would be objective - but everything is driven by politics and competing ideology who use the Constitution only in as much as it advances their casue. I see this the same for democrate, conservatives, and any other party you name.

In fairness, he is also a lawyer and served on the Watergate Commission, as a special counsel to governors, and on other judicial selection committees.
