Might you comment on the Fourth Circuit opinions dismissing now that they are issued? Seems to me that (a) they may be giving boost unwittingly to the Supreme Court’s “you can’t touch me” attitude....whereas it seems that excessive involvement by congress with the courts is not really the issue and (b) the suggestion that this is the beginning of a constant trend seems contrary to the more frequent difficulty with with congress acting at all and this took weird stars to align to get this law passed.

In the James Edward Barber execution order, 5 of the 6 Justices who did not dissent are Catholic. Has any Bishop denied them communion?
