I wonder if Poppy Bush is proud that Clarence Thomas thinks it is reasonable and constitutional for school administrators to search your daughter’s panties for hidden stashes of ibuprofen. Fortunately, he is the only Supreme Court justice who holds that opinion.

alito holds that view too, he was probably just to embarrassed from all the previous scrutiny to act on it.
getting a label like “strip search sammy” has to sting.
well, he ruled how he ruled.
not denying that. in fact, I’m surprised and pleased that they ruled it unconstitutional.
but i’m not going to waste a perfectly good opportunity to point out that samuel alito is a right wing dingaling.
oh, he is certainly that, but he’s not a perverted cretin like Clarence Thomas. Or, at least, he’s not in the same league.
possibly true.
shit. i just found a pubic hair in my coke. now my nose hurts.
Don’t know if he’s proud, but he probably lost any interest in becoming a school administrator.
Students do not, the Court tells us in Tinker vs. Des Moines, “shed their constitutional rights when they enter the schoolhouse door.” But it is also the case that school administrators have a far greater ability to restrict the speech of their students than the government has to restrict the speech of the general public. Student speech cases require a balancing of the legitimate educational objectives and need for school discipline of administrators against the First Amendment values served by extending speech rights of students. U.S. Secretary of Education Arne Duncan today announced that four companies were awarded contracts to service a portion of the approximately $550 billion outstanding federal student loan portfolio held by the Department. Many lenders have gone online, and you can apply with no fax needed, no credit check whether you have good credit or not, and a lot of lenders use direct deposit to get you your funds. So if you need some quick cash, don’t be afraid of payday lending.
