Busy Supreme Court News Day!

March 15, 2010

As it turns out, today was a busy news day regarding the ordinarily quiet SCOTUS. Usually, without any major decisions coming down, we hardly hear anything from The Nine*. Here are three recent stories:
First, Butler University is cool with Chief Justice John Roberts attending his niece’s graduation this May, but think Roberts is simply too [...]

Justice Roberts Stands Up for SCOTUS

March 11, 2010

Word came yesterday that Chief Justice John Roberts was upset about the treatment the Justices got from both Congress and the President at January’s State of the Union Address, questioning even whether or not SCOTUS should really even show up anymore.

Well-known atheist activist Michael Newdow is suing Chief Justice John Roberts over the phrase “so help me God”, to be used at Barack Obama’s Presidential Inauguration.

Gitmo Detainees Get Their Day in Court

June 12, 2008

And the Constitution gets its day on the toilet paper roll! The Supreme Court was about as off-base and dangerous today as as they were in Dred Scott. POWs held at Gitmo will, for the first time in our history, be allowed to have access to civilian US courts during wartime.
