As was demonstrated in an interview with Katie Couric, Sarah Palin is unable to name any Supreme Court Case other than Roe v. Wade.
The Rules: Post info about ONE Supreme Court decision, modern or historic, to your lj. (Any decision, as long as it's not Roe v. Wade.) For those who see this on your f-list, take the meme to your OWN lj to spread the fun.
Except, I won't do just one:
Loving vs. VA.: struck down miscagenation laws
Lawrence vs. TX: struck down anti sodomy laws
Gideon vs. Fuck If I Remember: established right to counsel
Miranda vs. FIIR (see above): established that you must be informed of your rights
Marbury vs. Madison: established judicial review
DC vs. Heller: yes, you actually do have a right to your second amendment rights
Brown vs. KS Board of Ed.: struck down separate but equal
People vs. Larry Flint: established parody as protected speech
Dred Scott vs. FIIR: upheld slavery return laws if memory serves, but I'm fuzzy on this one, been a long time.
So, I may not be the most informed of people on the street, but I'm pretty sure I far outrank Sarah Palin.
