"I don't think Iraq should have ever happened, and Afghanistan should have been a punitive expedition where we toppled the Taliban, shot up the countryside, and tossed the keys to the country to whoever wanted them, along with a note that said ‘Don’t make us come back here.’” - Tamara K.

"So much of ‘progressivism’ is, for all its emotional hostility to big business, fundamentally dependent on an economy and society in which decisions are made on a nationwide basis by large, centralized institutions like big corporations, the federal government and large labor unions.  Defined-benefit pension plans, nationwide class actions, a massively complex corporate tax code, volumes upon volumes of federal regulations - all these things are spectacularly ill-suited to addressing a decentralized world in which even people connected to large institutions are genuinely empowered at the local level, to say nothing of their poor fit with smaller businesses that lack the economies of scale to cope with byzantine federal regulatory demands, rent-seeking plaintiffs lawyers and long-term pension and health care costs for current employees.” - "Baseball Crank”

"When the feds get serious about the real security issues, like protecting our borders or at least admitting that radical Islam is part of the problem, then talk to me about Granny’s Depends.

"I’m greatly troubled by the 4-3 vote.  This means that 3 justices, liberals all, I’m sure, were willing to rule to uphold what was an unashamed, barely-disguised instance of the worst form of partisan judicial activism.

Which further suggests that liberal justices cannot be counted on to do more than simply work back[ward] from the decision that want to reach...

One vote stands between the rule of law and tyranny backed by a compliant, partisan judiciary.” - Jeff Goldstein

"We really have to stop giving the Left the benefit of the doubt.  By this time tomorrow, it will have been over a hundred years they've been trying this nonsense.  It has all been thoroughly debunked and demystified.  The consequences are known and cannot honestly be termed unanticipated.  Ignorance of the laws of reality just can't be taken for an excuse any more.  And their claims as to their motives are unpersuasive and disingenuous at BEST.” - Mark Philip Alger
