The US Supreme Court Rules Against Liberal Law Schools, Upholds Right of Military to Recruit on Campuses

In a landmark case for rationality, the US Supreme Court has ruled, unanimously, that schools which receive federal funds cannot keep military recruiters off their campuses. The case had been brought by a number of liberal scumbag law schools, whose kowtowing to the psycho left and the gay rights lobby overruled the right of the US military to find new recruits.

Imagine: Antonin Scalia AND Ruth Bader Ginsburg both agreed on this issue. Incredible.

Court Upholds Campus Military Recruiting

WASHINGTON (AP) -- The Supreme Court ruled unanimously Monday that colleges that accept federal money must allow military recruiters on campus, despite university objections to the Pentagon's "don't ask, don't tell" policy on gays.

Justices rejected a free-speech challenge from law schools and their professors who claimed they should not be forced to associate with military recruiters or promote their campus appearances.

Chief Justice John Roberts, writing for the court, said that the campus visits are an effective military recruiting tool.

"A military recruiter's mere presence on campus does not violate a law school's right to associate, regardless of how repugnant the law school considers the recruiter's message," he wrote.

The ruling upheld a law that requires colleges that take federal money to accommodate recruiters. In addition, justices said that Congress could directly demand military access on campus, even without the threat of losing federal money.

Law schools had become the latest battleground over the "don't ask, don't tell" policy allowing gay men and women to serve in the military only if they keep their sexual orientation to themselves.

Many universities forbid the participation of recruiters from public agencies and private companies that have discriminatory policies.

The ruling was announced on a day that the court was jammed with visitors from the military, all dressed in uniform. Justices heard arguments in the case in December, and signaled then that they were concerned about hindering a Defense Department need to fill its ranks when the nation is at war.

"This is an important victory for the military and ultimately for our national security," said Jay Sekulow, chief counsel for the American Center for Law and Justice.

College leaders have said they could not afford to lose federal help, some $35 billion a year.

Joshua Rosenkranz, the attorney for the challengers of the law, said that the case called attention to the military policy.

"We lost a skirmish in a much larger civil rights battle for the rights of gays and lesbians, which is a movement we are winning," he said.


Hmmm...let's see: the alleged "right" of gays to marry is being struck down in state after state after state - and now this.

And a liberal calls this "winning."

We would love to see what they call "losing."
