High court hears Ten Commandments debate

Yes, of course our pal Justice Scalia, who doesn't understand the impropriety of playing golf with potential parties in cases he has to decide, would also have difficulty figuring out why glorifying Judeo/Christian documents at public expense is a "bad thing." It would be nice if Supreme Court Justices actually protected the Constitution rather than found ways to push their own personal agendas to the detriment of the minority. Yes, the Constitution is supposed to protect against the "tyranny of the majority" but not if people like Scalia have their way.

Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia today challenged people who want to ban displays of the Ten Commandments on government property, noting legislative proclamations invoking God's name are permissible. "I don't see why the one is good and the other is bad," Scalia said. [CNN.com]
