Discussion: Outgoing Solicitor General: Losing Voting Rights Case Was Biggest Regret

Yes, it was a major loss and one that the Supremes facilitated and the Right Wing took advantage of. Sad and yet another fight we have to have AGAIN.

I can understand his regret, but it wasn’t his fault. The Voting Rights decision is right up there with Bush v Gore in terms of its absolute departure from precedent. Even now, it’s gag worthy to see Roberts lament a decision from the progressives because it’s inconsistent with what Congress voted. Gack.

A new Supreme Court must be confronted with a new case that has amicus briefs from many members of the House and Senate, an ex-Prez, etc.
