The slip opinion can be accessed from the United States Supreme Court webpage. I wanted to pull this as it will be an accurate report of the court's decision instead of what a news media chooses to publish.

Thank you for being one of the few people who take the time to actually seek out, read, and consider the actual decision instead of relying on the 30 second "in depth" news report, the "talk show screed", or the "talking head" analysis. Your presentation properly puts into context what was only a headline in the media. I have also found that what the media chooses to report and what the actual gist of a matter entails are quite different...
Given the aboce, I agree the decision was correct. Also, it appears to be sufficiently narrow as to exclude abuse as lawful...
As to the "Liberals getting it right", that's probably until they decide against what one agrees with; there's a quote from a Kipling poem about the treatment of soldiers I often think applies to those who sit on the court and the fickleness of the American public:
Quote:
For it's Tommy this, an' Tommy that, an' "Chuck him out, the brute!"
But it's "Saviour of 'is country" when the guns begin to shoot.

For some, today the Liberal wing of the court are the heroes; tomorrow, they may be the brutes...
