justice Tuesday

The Supreme Court has upheld Oregon's assisted suicide law. You can decry judicial activism all you want (and I'll wager that at least three conservative organizations will blame it in this case), but the law passed by majority vote and has withstood all constitutional challenges.

And for those scoring at home, a 6-3 decision means that a hypothetical Alito vote wouldn't have changed the outcome.
