Opinari.net
Opinari - Latin term for Opinion. Opinari.net is just what it seems: a cornucopia of rants, raves and poignant soliloquy. |

Statement of the day by Robert Alt:
Anyone who doubts the respective capacity of the branches to resolve disputed moral questions need only recall that the representational function of government which gave us the Declaration of Independence (" . . . all men are created equal . . .), and the judicial branch which has given us such glowing statements as Dred Scott and Plessy.
Not that I endorse Congressional intervention in state matters, because I don't. However, one of the worst abuses of government in the history of this country has been the expansion of judicial activism. One only has to consider Alt's statement to see how effective they have been in assuming that role.Labels: Archives_2005
