    5 Awesomely Sarcastic Supreme Court Decisions | Cracked.com

    Excellent article by cracked.com. It brought a smile to my face to see that even in politics there can be some humor :):

    "We Justices must confront what is indeed an awesome responsibility. It has been rendered the solemn duty of the Supreme Court of the United States ... to decide What Is Golf. I am sure that the Framers of the Constitution ... fully expected that sooner or later the paths of golf and government, the law and the links, would once again cross, and that the judges of this august Court would some day have to wrestle with that age-old jurisprudential question, for which their years of study in the law have so well prepared them: Is someone riding around a golf course from shot to shot really a golfer? Either out of humility or out of self-respect (one or the other) the Court should decline to answer this incredibly difficult and incredibly silly question."
    ---Justice Scalia

    I liked the one dealing with the First Amendment.

    Epic Fail on the golf one though. That would have been a prime moment to have judged the activity itself unconstitutional.
