I guess it's ok for the Supreme Court to rewrite law as long as the right-wing majority do the re-writing. The intention of the law is quite clear as expressed by Congress, who, I thought, was the body charged with writing the law.

All that crap about "activist judges" writing their own law only applies to one part of the political spectrum- the liberal one. Meanwhile Uncle Clarence Thomas and his white male posse can trash congressional laws and "stare decisis" as much as they choose.

Now Rush and the zombieheads will go crowing about how Sottmayer is out of the mainstream, when in fact, she voted to uphold the law amd the right-wing of the Supreme Court chose to rewrite it.

What ever happened to the right-wing's crowing about "Change the law if you don't like it-don;t expect the Courts to rewrite it on their own. Hypocrites all.

To paraphrase Anne Coulter, maybe AMerica will be lucky and a limo carrying Scalia, Thomas, Alito and Roberts will get stuck on train tracks.
