What America would look like if it didn't change their Amendments

35. the phantom justice, ray roberts

baggins: Ray Roberts was a Democrat... he was appointed by both Carter and Clinton (and recommended both times by Lloyd Bentsen.

Who pray tell, is ray roberts in emerson? I thought you were referring to the 5th circ emerson decision in 2001;

United States Court of Appeals,Fifth Circuit.
UNITED STATES of America, Plaintiff-Appellant, v. Timothy Joe EMERSON, Defendant-Appellee.
Decided: October 16, 2001
Before GARWOOD, DeMOSS and PARKER, Circuit Judges.

Now Robert Parker was indeed a carter appointee, but wow, what a big coincidence that would be if you are citing another emerson case with a carter appointee.

What I'd written about robert parker: Those 3 justices were all republican I believe - I reviewed this & googled them, two were noted as republican, the third, was not party id'd, but this: From 1965 until 1966, he {robt parker} worked as an administrative assistant to United States. Republican Ray Roberts.

Oh I figured it out. See Ray Roberts in the above sentence baggins? - Ray Roberts is the senator that Robert Parker worked for. Ray Roberts is indeed a republican, not a democrat - you read him as being one.
It's obvious you simply cited the wrong person in your haste to nick my shoulder, but still, get a napkin wipe the egg off your face.

baggins: That would be an incredibly lame position even if your 20 seconds of googling was accurate. In reality, your research skills suck:

More like 20 minutes, & my research skills are quite good comparatively. And if you want LAME, reread the top half of this post about what YOU wrote.
If you are so good at research, post a link or website which ascertains that Roberts was a democrat. You get 20 minutes.

Why I felt Robert Parker might be a republican: Those 3 justices were all republican I believe - I reviewed this & googled them, two were noted as republican, the third, Robert Parker appt'd by carter & later nom'd by clinton, was not party id'd, but this: From 1965 until 1966, he {robt parker} worked as an administrative assistant to United States. Republican Ray Roberts
Yeah clinton & carter appt'd some republicans, esp to southern circuits.
It wasn't a full 5th circuit unanimous decision, and it appears the 3 - 0 ruling might've come from 3 republicans,

Its obvious I was uncertain as to Robert Parkers political party. Its a minor point, not like I confused Robert Parker with Ray Roberts or anything gooney like that. To exploit it as you did demonstrates that you continue to mischaracterize & are more interested in promoting gun lobby positions at opponents expense.

baggins: don't think that anyone missed that you once again dodged the key question. ......There were four liberals and two moderates on the Supreme Court. Why didn't they even grant cert when the case was appealed?

I hate to break this to you baggins, but I do not think that -anyone- is following this except a few, likely out of boredom or nothing on tv.
As far your inane dialectic argument, you can stick that somewhere; I will not play your stupid game trying to go back 60 years to try to explain, to YOU, why the miller supreme court did not hear a subsequent Cases v US case. You do your own research.
Except for quickly: there are several reasons scotus could refuse - they agreed with the underlying decision, felt miller was definitive enough, that district courts and circuits sometimes had an alternate version of 2ndA and to address every issue was impractical and took up court time needed for more important issues.
