Fox News reports:
Delaware Republican Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell has posted to her website a response to a question about recent U.S. Supreme Court decisions that she objects to, an answer she didn’t give at a debate Wednesday. . .
In a posting late Wednesday, she praises the newly shaped court of the last couple years that has added conservatives Chief Justice John Roberts and Justice Samuel Alito. “[T]here is no longer a laundry list of recent disappointing decisions that stray from America’s founding principles,” O’Donnell said in the statement.
She then mentions three cases: “Consequently there are no recent Supreme Court decisions with which I vigorously disagree, with the exception of Boumediene v. Bush in 2008, Hamdan v. Rumsfeld in 2006 and Kelo v. City of New London in 2005. The court’s strong record in recent years proves the tremendous importance of appointing constitutionally based judges and Supreme Court Justices.”
The current court may the best in recent memory, but one doesn’t have to go back to 2008 to find an objectionable decision. One merely has to go back to the final day of the last term to find Christian Legal Society v. Martinez in which the court ruled that a public institution may suppress minority opinions by requiring groups to accept all comers.
Also, that same day, there was Free Enterprise Fund v. PCAOB, in which the court recognized that Sarbanes-Oxley was unconstitutional, but decided merely to tweak it rather than throw it out.
