When I was young, I had a friend who had a daddy complex and dated a man who was as old as her dad. He got us into the casinos and showed us his system. He would "feed" the machines, dropping one or two dimes into the machine, watching the patterns that came up. And then, when he thought the machine would hit, he put in five of six dimes and more often than not, he would score a bit hit.

And that's how I see these Liberal decisions that this conservative Supreme Court makes. They are feeding the machine, and when the big case comes, they are going to clean the table and get all the wins that are important to them.
