The decision was sound on the grounds of Equal Protection. Article II and the federal statute as applied to the facts of this case. That's my argument. We disagree......

BTW this argument:Alright, the Supreme Court sacrificed its principles and accepted a bunch of crappy arguments that they would not have accepted at any other time, but the circumstances justified it

....always fractures me. For some reason its OK to "sacrifice" for demolib causes like abortion but not for anything conservatives might favor. Not that that happened in Bush v. Gore but there certainly is precedent for your version of facts and I don't hear any liberal indignation over Roe v Wade.....
