What hits you most deeply? Odds are it's something the courts have done that affects your daily life or your beliefs. Other than the war, the issues that are Balkanizing America are those that the courts have decided to decide, usually without Constitutional imprimatur and in contravention of long-standing precedent.

How about Sandra Day O'Connor and Anthony Kennedy importing European law to decide American constitutional issues? For House Majority Leader Tom DeLay, the breaking point was Terri Schiavo.
