The supremen court did rule in the Grove college case, but they ruled only because Reagan government appealed to the supreme court and argued for a weakening of the law. The key thing here is the government's decision to prosecute. No government attacks every single law that happens to be a little bit badly written; the govenment argues a case all the way to the supreme court when it feels strongly about its case. I want a government that would go to congress to ask for laws strengthening the equal rights of women to college budget dollars; not a government that would go to the supreme court to to weaken them. - Toby Robison allegra!eosp1!robison decvax!ittvax!eosp1!robison princeton!eosp1!robison
