| Found this little gem from last week about 10 minutes ago: Right from the start, Ingham County Circuit Judge William Collette struck down the law as unconstitutional. The Michigan Court of Appeals backed him up on it. But the state Supreme Court said no, the law enlightened the public and encouraged an informed decision-making process. Blame Justices Clifford Taylor, Maura Corrigan, Robert Young Jr. and Stephen Markman for that one. So, to them, the law didn't violate the state Constitution. Makes you wonder.
My emphasis. The court are supposed to be a neutral arbiter, not an enabler of law that is clearly both bad and not within any sane person's understanding of how things were designed to work. In this case, we didn't get that, and thankfully at least one of the state's newspapers has decided to share with its readers the names of the guilty. |
