U.S. SUPREME COURT

They said it's OK for a city to steal people's homes, and hand them
over to developers. They've said even if your state has passed a law
legalizing medical marijuana, the federal government can still arrest
users and put them in jail. They've said it's OK to have a monument to
the 10 Commandments on public property, so long as it's not religious.
(Have they even read the first commandment, the one that says, "Thou
shalt have no other gods before me"?) And when they had the chance to
save two journalists from a government prosecutor bent on learning the
identities of confidential sources, they took a pass. (And let's not
forget how they installed George W. Bush into the presidency in 2000!)

On the first count of misinterpreting the U.S. Constitution, and on
the second count of failure to enforce constitutional protections, 666
finds the U.S. Supreme Court guilty and sentences its members to a
term not to exceed their natural lives in its fiery dungeon!
