I thought that the ruling was merely that the bad law was a regrettably legal one. From the outside it seems like the Supreme Court is the only prominent component of the US federal government that consistently does an honest job. Indeed, it's a good thing that it doesn't show a strong tendency to try to legislate, since it is not filled with people I would trust to do so....

Not that the cartoon isn't horribly funny - I choose the word advisedly.
