One expects that the type of individuals who make it all the
way to our Supreme Court are possessed of an exquisite sense of JUSTICE,
a semi-divine FEEL for Good and Evil, Right and Wrong.
But remember, before the Civil War they were behind
humane public opinion on the burning issue of slavery. Now I read in
today's newspapers that THEY have collectively discovered that it might
be unjust to execute mentally retarded people.
This same court may at some time in the future get a revelation
from the Holy Ghost that it is equally unjust to execute mentally ill
persons.
And at this rate of moral re-awakening , by the end of the
century, they might even reconsider the death penalty.
Or even revoke the presidency of George W. Bush !
