I voted "Horrid" because you neglected to add "Outrageously Stupid."<\/font><\/p>\n

I voted "HORRID". While there may be minor acceptable judgements, preponderance of conservative activism is absolutely disgusting. It seems to me that SCOTUS, or should I say the SCROTUS wing of Injustices, is nothing more than a wing of the Republican\/Teabagger party. I like the 3 women justices and Breyer, but I wish Justice Ginsburg were younger so that she would be around longer.<\/font><\/p>\n

They have sunk so far in my estimation, that horrible isn’t even an accurat)e description.(devious<\/font><\/p>\n

Not only "HORRID" – but HORRID for a long, Long, LONG time coming.<\/font><\/p>\n

As noted, there were one or two minor things done the way I think they should have been, John Roberts siding with the four decent justices in both instances, but narrow and meaningless decisions they were. For the rest, the vast majority, this is the rottenest and in truth, corrupt Court we have ever had – corrupt comes with Thomas and Scalia out there making tons of money advertising how they will vote on various issues. Which encourages suits on those issues. Which makes them corrupt, evil and impeachable in my opinion. If the House truly wants to impeach someone it should be those two fools.<\/font><\/p>\n

I want to qualify my vote of "horrid" by saying that it only applies to the SCROTUS Five. Unfortunately, they rule for now. Yes, there were one or two decent decisions, so minor I can’t even remember what they were. We will be decades cleaning up after these animals – and we can’t even start yet.<\/font><\/p>\n

I’m completely prejudices of course, because the only rulings I see from this SCOTUS are the ones I get presented with on this blog, Care2, Daily Kos and such.<\/font><\/p>\n

There were one or two surprise rulings this last term, but they were on very minor issues and didn’t stretch very far, but every other ruling I’ve heard off has been absolutely disastrous for this country. <\/font><\/p>\n

I was going to say "Horrid" but there have been a couple good decisions.<\/font><\/p>\n

\"clip_image003\"<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

I voted with the majority.  While there have been a couple decisions that weren\u2019t that bad, even the \u201cgood ones\u201d have included concealed attempts at sabotage.  A perfect exampled is deciding for the ACA, but allowing state governments to deny federally funded Medicaid to poor citizens.<\/font><\/p>\n

A new poll is up.  Vote now, and vote in November.<\/font><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
