the comments under the SC 6-3 decision were simply amazing.
Usually, progressives don't comment much there, but we are there in droves explaining why a Fox Fan's comments are stupid.
It's almost like the DU has taken over that specific page, and I am so happy!

I don't blame you, but I like to read opposing views, because sometimes they make good points, but not this time.

Hope not! I'm also hoping that Gorsuch just might surprise us.

(8,844 posts)I don't trust ANYTHING a Republican says.......
I watched all of his mommy's (Ann Gorsuch) corruption, and I wouldn't trust anyone from that Family.........
Ann Gorsuch only barely escaped massive Felony Corruption and Fraud charges by quickly resigning when she worked for Bush Sr. and Cheney.

(34,452 posts)Edited to add an excerpt from this WP article from 2017:
His mother, Anne Gorsuch, served as President Ronald Reagans first Environmental Protection Agency administrator and the first female leader in the agencys history. But her short, tumultuous tenure was marked by sharp budget cuts, rifts with career EPA employees, a steep decline in cases filed against polluters and a scandal over the mismanagement of the Superfund cleanup program that ultimately led to her resignation in 1983.
Anne Gorsuch like Reagan then and President Trump today was a firm believer that the federal government was too big, too powerful and too eager to issue regulations that restricted business

(8,844 posts)when they go after abortion, they can point to this decision and say: "see how open minded we are?"
How can you tell when Trump or any RepubliCON is lying???????? Their mouth is open...........

(10,077 posts)If Trump loses and Democrats retake control of the Senate, theres discussion of expanding the Supreme Court because of its Republican bias. If more liberal judges are added, Roberts and conservatives lose their power. This decision was really a no brainer. If they refuse to allow Congress to see Trumps taxes, well know theyre back to form.

(3,164 posts)But I've got to admit, I like what Gorsuch wrote
"Ours is a society of written laws. Judges are not free to overlook plain statutory commands on the strength of nothing more than suppositions about intentions or guesswork about expectations. In Title VII, Congress adopted broad language making it illegal for an employer to rely on an employees sex when deciding to fire that employee," said the court's opinion, written by Justice Neil Gorsuch.

When Fox reports Fake News, then yes, I will do that, but this isn't, and also because not all of the news on Fox is always negative, but actually well done sometimes.

It's not easy to read, and the comments aren't all there, but at least it'll give you an idea about what I'm talking about.
