Thou shalt not wrest judgment; thou shalt not respect persons, neither take a gift: for a gift doth blind the eyes of the wise, and pervert the words of the righteous.

Deut 16:19

The king by judgment establisheth the land: but he that receiveth gifts overthroweth it.

Prov 29:4

Thy princes are rebellious, and companions of thieves: every one loveth gifts, and followeth after rewards.

Isa 1:23

NO. It's Rodgers that wants to bank the decisions for "all time."

Disgusting sense of entitlement is not a reason to impugn? At some point one begins describing oneself. Just saying, Chief Wittes.

Stare Decisis is of a piece with the Senate. Let's not move too quickly into the future.

Your exegesis assumes no natural rights. Those natural rights are what the Constitution is based upon. Admittedly, natural rights have no champion other than us human beings. We all know the truth of them nonetheless. Hence the corrupt nature of this SCOTUS. I fled your joint because of your insistence upon adherence to the legal framework. I get that you are cool with that. I wish I could be as well. I am not. Rule of law can not protect us on its own. The lying, criminal filth has become the government. Only votes matter now. God help us.

Hippo v Giraffe was absent of precedent. Slavery was not.

You could go with your instinct, but allow people to earmark?
