I also admit that after my experience with the leak, I was completely dreading the decision being released because Twitter was going to be an over-the-top festival of yelling. I assume my followers knew I was against it because I actually RTd a post with cursing. But otherwise I posted things that came across my email and was unrepentant in implying that I was going to treat this as a religious liberty issue, this was a Friday, and I was not going to be in front of a PC for 7 hours.

(This is my husband's name by sheer accident but technically I can still have babies and the people in my religious community think of a lot of kids as a blessing too.)

A pollster who I have every reason to believe was with the Steve Roberts campaign called me and asked what was the most important issue facing the country and I said the sharp division leading to lack of faith in democracy in large part because of this. Linda Greenhouse is not far left by any stretch of the imagination and was still able to say, "They did it because they could." These 6 justices are going to do a lot of things because they can for as long as Thomas can hang on. We will be lucky if they do not leave constitutional law and the state of our democracy where it was in the 1930s by the time they are done.
