NOM's wishful (and disrespectful) thinking: SCOTUS ruling is 'illegitimate'

Of course if it would've been 5–4 the other way, and the majority had only written "Hibbity Jibbity O'Mibbity Schibbity," NOM would be praising the ruling as historic and definitive and the greatest victory ever known. It wouldn't have mattered that 40+ federal decisions went for our side. NOM would hang its (out of fashion, tattered, frankly foul-smelling) hat on this one decision, no matter how Scalia-ctivist it was.
NOM has always been a sore loser of an organization. It is NOM's legacy.
