Supremes Unanimously Rule EPA Wrong

On January 11, 2012 I posted on the Sackett case from Idaho that had just been heard by the U.S. Supreme Court. The case involved the EPA red-tagging the property as a wetland (the Corps of Engineers having already ruled that it wasn't) and then arguing that the owners did not have recourse to the courts to challenge. In a blow for freedom today, the Supremes unanimously reversed the 9th Circuit which had upheld the EPA's absurd position. Nice job Supremes!

It is also worth noting that this is yet another decision where the Supreme Court has reversed the government unanimously. This is unusual and it does not bode well for the Obama Administration in important upcoming cases like Obamacare. We can hope and pray that someone in Washington is serious about the Constitution.
