Do you trust the Supreme Court


Posted: Mar 26, 2012

Before the decision even comes down from the Supreme Court on Obama's health care law I have to admit I have no confidence in them. It's all political. Giving the election to bush over Gore and allowing corporations to fund elections makes me think the court is not bipartisan. When the highest court in the land is partisan I have no hope. I feel sad for our country. Do you trust them?

You so eloquently expressed exactly what - sm

I think, too. I wonder how many of them are senile now. At any rate, they're definitely partisan, as you point out regarding Bush v. Gore, the corporations, etc.

I also look for them to do away with safe abortions, birth control pills, etc., since Roberts, Alito and Scalia (at the least) are Catholic, and Thomas will go along with whatever those three have to say.
