Rheinquist will leave the court without a legacy now. Or, at the least, he'll leave with the destruction of States Rights, as we've known them. Smooth move, Bill!

FYI, If CNN is to be believed:

"Justices O'Connor, Rehnquist and Thomas dissented."

So that means the justices nominated by Democrats all voted to let
the feds prosecute medical marijuana users, and the Republican
apointees were split. This issue is a mix of drug policy and states rights
so that why the split was such an odd one: each judge had to decide
which was more important.
