The answer, and it has stuck with me, was that the ultimate meaning of the decision lay in how the lower courts interpreted and applied it.Latest Greenhouse column considers “how far the Supreme Court should go to acknowledge the real-world context of its decisions.” Nod to Sotomayor/dissents. And, lower court context too. One more reason the confirmation/filibuster battles are so important.
