    The bottom line is this. Cases are “important” based on whom you ask. And they’re “divisive” when that person’s important cases don’t come out the way they wanted them to. Those are stupid distillations of whatever data the authors had already laid out. A case is divisive if the electorate considers it so, which means a case is divisive if it's culturally loaded. The only case in the article where the three liberal judges did not align, is one with no obvious cultural loading, about a state requiring companies to agree to be sued there if they do business there. As for whether a case is considered "important", why does it matter whether anybody considers a case important? Why is that even an idea the piece needs to present?

    It would be very disappointing to get food poisoning on the morning of one's execution. Of course, on some days things just go from bad to worse.

    @Jolly said in Meanwhile, in Chicago...: Oh well, look at the bright side...If the earth's North Pole continues the direction of change and the earth's current rotational wobble increases, Chicago will be on the equator. I should add that this is about ¼ the size of the group I saw a couple of weeks ago at the same location. I believe I commented on it.

    He probably shouldn't have used the word 'failure', as that isn't really what he meant. Still, the media's coverage of what he said is bollocks. As to his point - everybody agrees with Churchill in hindsight. At the time it was apparently a lot less obvious. I wonder what Tucker Carlson and MTG make of the decisions made by Neville Chamberlain and American isolationists back then. You could get some really cheap groceries in 1930's Germany, after all.
