Roberts can be an FF once in a while.

I think this is a good decision, and the reasoning is pretty sound after glancing through some of the decision.

Agreed. A sound decision, and maintains a reasonable burden of proof

Looks like Roberts is pulling a Souter

Ohhhh that would be too sweeeeeeet. A little early to declare that though, but I will take this good decision from our CJ.

LOL, no. Souter was strongly opposed to Citizens United.

I like this ruling.


It is so easy for such institutions to evade consequences for poor decision making and that in and of itself is a distortion of the market. A product of regulatory capture of so many avenues that would normally reign them in.
