Another Chick Added To The Supreme Court

The opposition didn't lose consecutively. Kagan's side lost in district court, won in the circuit and then lost again in the Supreme Court.

Anyway, let's look at what I said:



Not the bold part. I followed that with:

Okay, I stand corrected on the order of wins and losses. Still, my point stands that "annihilated" is hyperbolic. Also, I missed that you qualified it in a different post, which actually covered what I was getting at anyway. So nevermind :)

8-0

Under the circumstances, she could not have lost by more. (Had Alito taken part, it is safe to say it would have been 9-0.) If that's not annihiliation, then nothing can be.
 
Well, she could have lost in the Appellate Court, too. The Appellate decision was a split decision, 2-1. So, all in all, 10 judges disagreed with her and two agreed. Not a great record, but at least she can say that two sitting judges agreed with her.

We are getting into semantics now but I said they were annihilated in the Supreme Court.
 
You get a feeling that lot of the people who are opposed to the Military Recruting on Campus just don't like the military, and it it was not the gay issue they would find another reason to want to kick the military off campus.

Why do you get that feeling? Do you not think there is a time and place to recruit people for the military and that there are times where it's inappropriate?
 
If just about any company can come and recruit on campus, why not the US Military?

Do any of those companies have policies that discriminate against homosexuals?

No, so you have nothing but a non-sequitor.

I think this is accurate.
 
Every time I see this thread, I can't help but think 'Obama nominated Jack Chick?'

You're not alone. I thought this thread was about some chick tract bashing on the SCOTUS when I first saw the title.
