Bush Administration Gets Slapped Down in Court....Again

This all seems to have happened in the past 6 months or so. I'm wondering if the judiciary has just gotten sick of them, or if lame duck syndrome changes the thinking of judges.

In this case, U.S. Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit decided that the Bush EPA was full of it when they tried to prevent state and local governments from monitoring power plant pollution.

Seriously, it seems that the courts are finally getting around to reversing blatantly illegal crap that has been going on for years...Do the wheels of justice just grind this slow, or some members of the Judiciary realizing that this is not a boat that they want to hitch their anchor to?
