Lots of people are excited. REALLY excited.
Meh.
I'm less excited than most. Now a Ginsberg retirement for whatever reason, this year, or next, that would get me interested.
I want one of the 4 that voted against Heller to go away and any of the 5 that voted with it to be replaced by like minded folks and have that 6-3 Second Amendment rulings got on for a decade and a half, at least.
Then I will start to feel a bit more secure that our civil rights will be preserved.
Kennedy replacement feels like half a loaf. A want an unexpected whole loaf, in addition. Breyer ice cream flavor, or Batter Ginseng flavor would be fine. I know it is greedy, but we have been compromising our baked goods away since the 30s.
Don't forget Sotomayor and her type 1 diabetes.
ReplyDeleteGinsberg will have to wake up before she can put in the paperwork to retire.
