Just A Reminder

To echo thoughts directed at those claiming that they’ll take their balls and go home if the wrong candidate wins the primary, allow me to quote the following from John Paul Stevens’s dissent in Bethel School District v. Fraser:

“Frankly, my dear, I don’t give a damn.”

When I was a high school student, the use of those words in a public forum shocked the Nation. Today Clark Gable’s four-letter expletive is less offensive than it was then.

Wait–it’s worse than that. I’m pretty sure that Justice Stevens is misremembering and was in fact a college student at the time. (He got his BA two years after Gone With the Wind was released.) And then note that the possibility of Antonin Scalia becoming the median vote on the Supreme Court isn’t the worst thing that could happen if John “Bomb bomb bomb, bomb bomb Iran” McCain were to be elected. Just sayin.’
