posted the following in his journal earlier:

As evidenced by Katie Couric, Sarah Palin is unable to name any Supreme Court Case other than Roe v. Wade.

The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic to your lj. (Any decision, as long as it’s not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your OWN lj to spread the fun.

My pick is the Miranda decision, without which Law & Order and other TV cop shows would have to come up with more clever plotlines.

I’m going to pick up the ball and run with it. I’ll go with Brown v. Board of Education, which ruled that state laws establishing separate public schools for blacks and whites denied black children equal opportunities. This reversed a number of Supreme Court decisions up to, and including, Plessy v. Ferguson, which upheld segregation under “separate but equal” laws.

Check that action out: Two Supreme Court case references for the price of one. Booyah!

As a reward, I think I’ll watch a little Schoolhouse Rock!
