I guess honestly all that's left is black being white and up being down.
Only a lawyer could 'effectively' make these arguments.

I'm not sure quite what you are saying here. I see the irony of the first point as one of the things the current, conservative, administration is walking all over. Most every environmental issue in my State involves private use of public land. Approved and abetted by the conservatives.
Not sure what your second issue is about. When I think of State's rights (not what you mean, I'm sure), I think of the current administrations issues with my State's legally voted decision about medical marijuana.
I would be all for a government/court that supported public as public, and private as private (particularly when private is individual activities with/for themselves). Strangely, that's NOT what we get with this administration.
So pardon my cynacism when I doubt that's what we'll get with it's nominees.
