CAT Tracks Editor's Note:
Once upon a time, there was this fairy tale that the courts were above politics.
The death of United States Supreme Court Justice Antonin Scalia and the political furor over his replacement, whereby Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican, refuses to even hold hearings to consider an appointment by a Democratic President, put the final nail in that coffin.
The article above about Walker's Supreme Court overturning the pro-labor ruling by an allegedly liberal lower court judge, with no consideration for precedent or, well, justice...
...scary days indeed.
