A Hallmark of any liberal is a self recognition that he, or she,
has been endowed with superior understanding, munificence, judgment,
intellect, morality, and knowing how to make the best vegan
omelet. It stands to reason, then, that making one of them a
judge is an exercise in political flagellation for the rest of
us. Nobody epitomizes Liberalus Judgaroni more than does Judge Stephen Reinhardt of the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. Here's his latest blessing, bestowed upon an ought-to-be-more-grateful nation.

But that is not how the Ninth Circuit treated Harper's appeal. Instead,
in a 2-1 decision, Judge Reinhardt used the case to articulate a new
concept of free speech regulation. Focusing on the specific anti-gay
content of Harper's T-shirt, he ruled that schools may restrict
"derogatory and injurious remarks directed at students' minority status
such as race, religion, and sexual orientation." TCS |
What's that? You need background? Lucky for you that famous
gunman, author, secret underground special force terrorist
sanctionator, and Schweppes man Kim du Toit has it all in our Rant-of-the-Day.
