"5/4" from The Ryskind Sketchbook
Paul Greenberg:
Something else became clearer to me on wading through the court's muddy majority opinion: If Abraham Lincoln had had a Supreme Court like this to deal with, and he pretty much did, and had that president and commander in chief failed to outmaneuver that court's pro-slavery chief justice, the Hon. Roger B. Taney, he of the infamous Dred Scott decision, then I might well be writing this column from Little Rock, Ark., C.S.A.We're in a power struggle all right. It's a contest between SCOTUS & the Press who rules us.
