We’re so screwed. There HAS to be a difference in how liberal and conservative brains work. Some of those 6 judges will live long enough to see the dramatic effects of their recent decisions. I dread the ones coming up next year.
I think you’re right about next year, Jean — and the year after, and on and on. The best we may hope for is a dark
period in American life, from which a “new birth of freedom,” as Mr. Lincoln put it, may arise; the worse view is that we will never recover. I don’t know which is more likely.
So well-said Rex...but such a hard reality to face. Appreciate your sharing your thinking and giving us historical perspective. BTW, Have you read Rachel Maddow's book, "Blowout"? Wow, the history of the oil/gas industry and connection to Russia/Putin/the gangsters are as striking as the Supreme Ct's current decisions!
Thanks, Marsha. I have not yet read Rachel's book, but I'm not surprised to hear from you and others that it's eye-opening. She is a genuine scholar, in addition to being a powerful media presence.
