No congressional power to do that. It is reserved to the states.

Now, practically speaking, the federal govt does whatever it wants to do.

Not based on this ruling. Said in essence it is - tman MU - 6/27 10:20:06

would this current court - meatiger MU - 6/27 11:05:05

I think they would. That would be a consistent - tman MU - 6/27 11:27:20

the court for several years has not been consistent - meatiger MU - 6/27 11:33:00

no, the court said the the previous court had no right - tigerinhogtown STL - 6/27 10:45:17

Have you actually read the opinion. It isn't a long one - tman MU - 6/27 10:49:46

yes, given this conclusion, where am I wrong? - tigerinhogtown STL - 6/27 11:47:21

It would be an interesting debate - Mormad MU - 6/27 10:44:39

Exactly, which in my opinion is a good thing(nm) - tman MU - 6/27 10:54:56

I think it's one thing to make a ruling in a limited area - Mormad MU - 6/27 10:59:32

They wrote the opinion in that manner, but - tman MU - 6/27 11:04:49

Don't disagree, it's kind of like the 24 hour newscycle - Mormad MU - 6/27 11:21:59
