Newsbusters asks us to "pretend for a moment that this had happened to a conservative member of the Supreme Court." I don't think it takes too much imagination to come up with the correct answer to that question.

American Enterprise Institute research fellow John Fortier provides a good overview of the issues in the redistricting case in "The shape of things."

Fans of the music of the '60s may recall the Yardbirds headbanging 1966 hit "Shapes of Things" with the glorious Jeff Beck guitar solo. Beck returned to cover "Shapes" on his 1968 solo debut "Truth," with Rod Stewart on vocals:

I think we also know the correct answer to that question.
