and your side re enforces the nut label every time you attack the vax or masks or call middle of the road old joe a commie or the 100's of other MYTHS you believe with out a bit of proof
your side works hard to earn that nut label be proud of it or try rational facts instead of MYTHS for a change |

WOW
The "news" sure is on fire today with Demorats angry about not being allowed to kill babies anymore.
They haven't been this upset since their slaves were freed.

Yes, it's been fun watching the water boy Left Wing Media.
I would say they haven't been this upset since Elon Musk bought Twitter.

It doesn’t matter what the left is upset about, the histrionics will always be dialed up to eleven.
To bastardize an adage coined in the middle of the previous century, “The problem expands so as to fill the worry allotted”. Four years ago, they were every bit as upset about what a few college kids did or didn’t do at a frat party over 40 years prior.
The truth is that rather than supporting any position based on ideology, they oppose a position based of who supports it. This is the only course of action available to those who have no viable ideas.

The news is very confusing. Nothing has been voted on
and if it was then it is putting the power back in the states hands where they can choose what to uphold. I think its along the same lines and "someone" colluded with the Russians. We know how that turned out. The "Government" has grown too big and they are feeling that power slip so they react. Everyone votes then finds out it was fake or misleading. Rinse repeat.

First off, the Supreme Court Justices don't "vote".
They hear oral argument on cases from both sides, ("en banc" which means as a group of 9 Justices), or if the court declines to hear oral argument the individual Justices read the legal filings, briefs and amici from both sides that have been admitted into the case.
THEN the individual Justices separately make their own determination / ruling under the Constitution and stare decisis, (prior applicable case law) as they individually see it and they justify their decision with their own individual written opinion. They most often have their own law clerks that assist them in writing their decision.
THEN once this is all done the Chief Justice, in this case Justice John Roberts, looks at all of the other 8 decisions / opinions and appoints a Justice among the majority out of those 8 to write the majority opinion which collectively gathers all of the other majority opinions into one document. The Chief Justice can, and sometimes does, write the majority opinion if he is among the majority.
The draft of that document, (majority opinion) is then sent back around to all of the Justices for any final edits before it is finally published. Individual Justice's law clerks also are allowed to see the draft majority opinion at this point.
The Chief Justice, (Roberts) also appoints one of the minority Justices to write the dissenting opinion which goes through a similar draft and edit process.
At no point do United States Supreme Court Justices participate in any kind of "balloting or vote". Nor should they ever.
------------
NOTE: I think that it is most likely that an "activist" law clerk for one of the Justices broke confidentiality protocol, and also the terms of their employment and maybe the law, and released the copy of the draft majority opinion to the media. It was clearly done in order to exert political pressure on the Supreme Court and into what should be strictly a legal decision.[This message has been edited by randye (edited 05-03-2022).]

The last paragraph pretty well says it all:
| quote | | To the jaded and hardened who have already crossed over into this new age—an age in which power and winning are the only tests of virtue, and the old ideas, like civility and respect, now seem twee—the leak might seem normal or even necessary. But it is nothing more than the most recent salvo in our race to the bottom. |
|
To me, the leak is the most important part of this story. But once they figure out who is responsible, that aspect will just fade into obscurity. Unless, of course, they can blame it on Trump, then they will appoint another special council, another inquisition will convene, the results of which will be leaked in October.

Thank you for realizing my point.
Hyperbolic emotion and histrionics completely rule Leftist "thinking" and discourse.
Simply reading all of their "the world is coming to an end" panicked media today over this SCOTUS draft opinion illustrates that, and thus my "freed slaves" reference.
--------
By the way, In other SCOTUS news from yesterday that is sure to also get "the crazy Haiku wing" of PFF emotionally overwrought:
 *That decision was unanimous.
.
This seems like a good evening to go out for a ride on my elk again....[This message has been edited by randye (edited 05-04-2022).]
