clarence thomas alabama redistricting case proves common sense is dead in Washington. So the Supreme Court hands Alabama a ruling forcing them to redraw maps to favor Democrats, and Justice Thomas is the lone voice saying, 'Hey, maybe we should just follow the actual law?' Meanwhile, my neighborhood can't even get a pothole fixed because the city council is too busy arguing about which way a line goes on a map. This is the same logic that thinks you can solve a traffic jam by adding more lanes to a road that leads to a cliff. The three liberal justices plus Kavanaugh and Roberts are so busy playing gerrymandering patty-cake they forgot voters just want roads that don't swallow your car whole. Common sense says a district map isn't broken if people can cast a ballot - it's broken when my tax dollars vanish into a redistricting black hole. Wake up, folks.
