It's just code to get the Right Wing all hyped up against someone or some ruling, except when it's in their favor."NBC News' Chuck Todd notes this morning that the five conservative members of the Supreme Court engaged in some legislating from the bench in yesterday's Ricci ruling."Joe Scarborough has absolutely no comeback and claims he would need an hour to explain himself. That's nice. An hour to defend one sentence. Source: The Washington Monthly
