It's as fiery as anything turned out by conservative rabble-rouser Antonin Scalia, probably the court's best writer. She dismisses the majority's logic as "bewildering," the product of old men out of touch: "This way of thinking reflects ancient notions about women's place in the family and under the Constitution - ideas that have long since been discredited...
