Quote of the day—William Kent Suter

What do these cases have in common? First, the government lost all four in unanimous decisions. Second, each case dealt with a government infringement on a fundamental right—freedom of religion, the right to be free from unreasonable searches, the right to enjoy private property and due process, and the right to compensation when the government takes your property.

It is rare for the executive branch to lose four cases dealing with fundamental rights in unanimous decisions in one term. Those who believe in the Constitution and the rule of law should feel uneasy about the administration’s positions in these cases.

It’s clear the current administration wants to be tyrannical. It’s just not always successful in it’s efforts.—Joe]

    “But what? (taps chin with fingers) These things have to be done deeellllicately…deeelllicately….”
