Though you do it using some terms I would not use, you illustrate a good point here. People have come to accept the judiciary as the 'final say' in pretty much any case the judiciary wants to get involved in. The courts have done well to alter the history of this country, in good and bad ways. Along the way, they have essentially legislated from the bench. Now, the law-making branch of our government has inserted itself into previously judicial matters. Though I should complain much in the same way I do when the courts give us new laws, I think I will just sit and enjoy watching the courts get the tables turned on themselves.

It will be interesting to see whether this case sets any type of precedent.
