Even Fox News is Slamming the Supreme Court Decision

This is a very good sign: even Fox News has an editorial up harshly criticizing the appalling Supreme Court Decision today.

The decision was 5-4, with the conservative wing entirely in the majority opinion. Anthony Kennedy, the semi-swing vote, obviously went with the majority on this one. The liberal wing was entirely in the dissent. A 90-page dissent was written by 89 year old Justice John Paul Stevens.

To have FoxNews opposing this decision as a sign of a deteriorating democracy is perhaps a ray of hope that it can be reversed.
