You have to understand the Metro rules on food on the Metro, though. Look at NYC with rats and other vermin everywhere. That's what Metro was hoping to avoid with the no-food rule.

Bravo to the Judge for not second-guessing the people's ability to make laws for themselves without having judges always second-guessing them. The people (through their reps) came to see the law as too draconian and decided to change it. That, people, is the way our government is supposed to work, not having judges substituting their judgment for the people's unless an action clearly violates the Constitution. A rule about food on the Metro does not violate the Constitution.

"which is a plus for Bunnypants and the Christo-Fascists"---

I see hatred is alive and well in your heart.

"A rule about food on the Metro does not violate the Constitution."

Indeed, but can we agree that the actions of the Metro Police (?) regarding the 12 year old was way, way, way over the top and totally lacking in reason and common sense?

In any event, unless Roberts has a dark side that hasn't surfaced and his being a conservative is not what I mean, he will be confirmed and, I suspect, quite easily.

I doubt he is a harpy like Thomas or a rabid idealogue like Scalia.

Time will tell.

And eating one french fry does violate the Constitution?

We need a Supreme Court justice that reflects the Democrat way. Someone who can commune with Eleanor; determine what the Constitution says by reading Ryussian law; do the bidding of NAMBLA and MoveOn; insure that Seattle election methods are spread far and wide; continue the Leftist tradition of trampling on the Constitution by eliminating the rest of the Bill of Rights now that its killed the 5th. No doubt that the dhimmicrats will nominate Bin Laden when they get the chance.

Well, I can't quite determine if the last comment was supposed to be a joke or not. I mean, it's purely insane, but I've met people who tend to think in such abusive ways, so I'll reserve judgement on the poster. (I'd like to believe it's a joke though) If it isn't, well, there's an easy way for the Republicans to thwart the democrats 'plans' *cough* to nominate Bin Laden. They could, you know, capture him. You know, like we should have been doing instead of invading another country, hmm? I think Bin Laden hs breathed the air of freedom far too long. But hey, what do i know?

Toyata, say Cheney's former staffer is their head of marketing.

Small world eh?

His wifey is a contractor for Iraq.
"Yet another first for our boundary-breaching White House: for the first time in American history, we’re going to have a justice on the high court whose spouse facilitates financing and putting together global satellite systems."

"Also, the company in which she is a partner, Shaw Pittman, emphasizes among other things its expertise in facilitating business in Iraq"

...also, suppose he sides with employers vs. guard/reserves compensation and job retention?

He has ruled against plaintiffs in civil suits consistently, one of the anti-torts.
