SCOTUS repeals Gas Laws

This will be next Friday's headlines:

SCOTUS repeals Gas Laws

Yesterday, the Supeme Court of the United States repealed the Gas Laws. Widely trumpted as "fact" by physicists since 1647, these laws describe the actions of gases as pressure, temperature, and volume change, and scientists have often cited the equation PV=nRT to convince the ignorant of their "religion." The Supreme Court, in a 6-3 desicion, elected to repeal the "laws" because they limit the wildly expanding powers of the Federal Government by violating provisions of the Interstate Commerce Clause.

Justice Stevens, writing in a brief, said:


"... the troubling limits the questionable field of "physics" has placed on the unlimited growth of Federal Powers must be checked. The Interstate Commerce Clause, which we have used as a standard for creating more legislation, provides the Federal Government the clever avenue by which to repeal these "laws," and set right a wrong that has been a thorn in my ass since I came on the bench in 1846 - as a Democrat, with a mission."

Dissenting was Justice Thomas, Chief Justice Rhenquist, and Justice O'Conner. In a dissent, Justice Thomas writes,


"These people are clinically insane. I'd kill myself to end the misery of working with them, but it would only encourage their liberalism."

Justice Ginsberg proposed the immediate disbanding of Congress and immediate impeachment of every other Justice who opposes her views.


I'm sorry. I thought I'd take the liberty to have a little fun with the jackasses in the SCOTUS before I break down in tears at their declaration of war on the Constitution.

That's pretty funny brother. If you can't laugh at it then it's time to take your marbles and go home.

It's one of those "laughing-hysterically-that-evolves-into-crying-hysterically" things.

When the stories were going around about the lefty that died of a heart attack due to "the strain of living with right-wingers", I asked myself who could take this stuff that seriously?

Then Kelo came down, and I've almost become depressed. It actually hurts me to think that they got away with this. Hopefully my heart or head doesn't simply explode as a result...

Thank you, I enjoyed it in between my own throwing up with delight of the last SCOTUS ruling. I printed it out for my stone age dad who has no computer. I suppose that I have violated some Interstate Commerce law by exposing idiots on the bench.

I am sure that, since you were born in one state, and have probably moved to another, and in that time period purchased a Coca-Cola at a commercial establishment, then any and every action you have made or will make puts you under the aegis of the Commerce Clause. :-/

SCOTUS is silly, just silly.
