    In other words, you fully admit this decision was entirely political and not based on the constitution.

    That's backed up in part by the justices of the court stating in writing that their decision could NOT be used as a basis for future decisions - as SC decisions almost always are.

    Even THEY agreed that it was purely a matter of preference in that one election.

    Just a census update while you guys debate the SCOTUS...

    The self-imposed deadline for submitting the forms for printing is tomorrow.... not sure what time of day tomorrow

    SNIP
    The Census Bureau maintained it needs to begin printing forms in July and has set a deadline of Monday. But one senior census official told the Times that officials could wait as late as Oct. 31. However, the newspaper said some experts dispute that.
    ENDSNIP

    https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/census-forms/2019/06/28/id/922539/

    That is quite the range of possible "deadline" dates?? End of June or End of October?? What's up with that??

    We’ve been over that. Judges have no mechanism to create law. No law was created by RvW. A law was struck down as unconstitutional.

    Here's my suggested compromise... should make everybody happy.

    Submit the forms without the citizenship question, but next spring, when the forms are sent out, have Trump ask everybody via twitter to just write 'citizen' or 'non-citizen' next to each name on the form.... Trump will then have Eric go through each form by hand and keep a tally.

    Whaddya think??

    No, its called precident

    The constitution does not assign superior power to the judiciary

    But because the firdt chief justice had bigger balls than congress and the president the court assumed that power

    And its been so ever since

    Their decisions are nust their personal opinion

    Otherwise therewould be no oral or written arguments and every decision would be 9-0

    And, the case in point, Bush, was a purely political decision in favor of the GOP.

    Also, you need to stop calling them judges, as they aren't judges.

    This census WILL be affected by the hate and legal movements against Hispanics combined with the general concern about government workers knocking on the door and asking about who lives there.
