To focus back on the start of this discussion, it was about Scalia's suggestion that federalism only applies when cases aren't important He didn't suggest any such thing. He suggested that the Supreme Court did not have insufficient grounds to take the case. He was talking about hearing the case, not deciding it. The Supreme Court could have taken the case and decided the other way, you know. But the Supreme Court hears very, very few cases. Mostly to resolve splits in the circuits or resolve state interpretation of federal statutory or constitutional law. Quote: What did you expect us to do? Turn the case down because it wasn't important enough? Derek
