One Can Be Sophisticated And Believe In

Words No Longer Have Meaning If An Exchange That Is Not Established By A State Is "established By The State".

If, Even As The Price To Be Paid For A Fifth Vote, I Ever Joined An Opinion For The Court That Began: 'the Constitution Promises Liberty To All Within Its Reach, A Liberty That Includes Certain Specific Rights That Allow Persons, Within A Lawful Realm, To Define And Express Their Identity,' I Would Hide My Head In A Bag. The Supreme Court Of The United States Has Descended From The Disciplined Legal Reasoning Of John Marshall And Joseph Story To The Mystical Aphorisms Of The Fortune Cookie.

People Look At Rights As If They Were Muscles — The More You Exercise Them, The Better They Get.

Why Can't The State Accede To The Public's Wishes?

You Can't Come In Smugly And With Great Self Satisfaction And Say 'oh It's Torture, And Therefore It's No Good.' Is It Really So Easy To Determine That Smacking Someone In The Face To Determine Where He Has Hidden The Bomb That Is About To Blow Up Los Angeles Is Prohibited In The Constitution? It Would Be Absurd To Say You Couldn't Do That. And Once You Acknowledge That, We're Into A Different Game.
