[edit] Bogosity meter tripped

The story in this section sounds suspicious.Even it this *weren't* an accurate precedent surely there would be other supreme court cases on the topic.Roadrunner 22:33, 3 January 2007 (UTC)

  • Roadrunner, your "Bogosity meter" was accurate. The article was almost completely false. The case did NOT create the doctrine of corporate personhood, nor has any court misunderstood it to mean that. The case DID apply the Fourteenth Amendment to "juristic persons." This is NOT a mistaken reading, that's what the case did. I don't know where the original writer got information on the private discussion between Supreme Court justices and their clerks. I've tried to clean it up some--Bibliophylax 23:35, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Revert

Can someone revert this to the last version by User:Bibliophylax? I'm not very good at this. >.> --AgentCDE 04:22, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
