I'm so very sick and tired of all these GQP governor assholes' disregard for the Constitution...
The need to continually spend hundreds of thousands to fight their crap in the courts does nothing but embolden them... Since their lawyers are being paid out of their state coffers and not out of their own pockets...
And in the end their bull crap is heard before the bought and paid for SCOTUS.....
What justice is there really in this system?
13 seat SCOTUS now...
