cowpies and roadkill are excluded from this offer
jibe with its values

Via TalkLeft, here's a NYTimes story that relates how the U.S. House has approved a resolution critical of the Third Circuit Court's decision allowing divisions within universities to bar millitary recruiting without the threat of losing funding in other departments. The right has an increasingly antagonistic attitude toward the judicial branch of our government - using loaded language like "activist judges" - but it seems like legislative projects like this and anti-marriage proposals which attempt to circumvent the court seem to be a more radical attitude toward our legal system. The Third Circuit's decision, mind you, was based on a Supreme Court decision allowing the Boy Scouts to ban gays, so its clear that the supporters of this resolution have little regard for our courts or internal consistency.
