So how did you like the USSC judgment in 2000?

It was a correct, though somewhat activist, decision. It also doesn't matter what I think. Their decision is the law. Anyone who says that W was not a legitimate elected president is incorrect, IMHO.

The thing that offended me about that case was the ludicrous concurring opinion written by Chief Justice Rhenquist and joined by Justices Scalia and Thomas. Rhenquist tried to justify the Supreme Court's second guessing of the Florida Supreme Court's interpretation of Florida law. He said that the Florida Supreme Court had gone so far off the reservation that it was acting like the Alabama Supreme Court did when it tried to subvert civil rights laws by applying bizarre interpretations of state law. You can disagree with what the Florida Supreme Court did in Bush v. Gore, but to compare them to the blatantly racists judges of the Alabama Supreme Court is truly offensive.

This is a tangent, I know, but I just want to say for the record that Rhenquist was and Scalia is a judicial activist, no matter what Scalia says. I just thought I would say that for the record here.
