The Supreme Court Goes... Phonanimous?

The Supreme Court comes out with big end-of-term decisions this week, and three of the four big cases were unanimous. Will Slate.com Legal Analyst Dahlia Lithwick's new word Pho-nanimous take off to describe the Justices' behavior this term? She says the 9-0 rulings are far more fraught with argument than they appear. Among the decisions, the Justices struck down President Barack Obama's recess appointments, they ruled against arrest-related searches of cell phones, and struck down buffer zones around abortion clinics. Coming up next week, we'll hear a ruling about the Hobby Lobby and the contraception mandate. Also, the U.S. pledges to help Syrian rebels and the Ukraine signs a trade accord.

This week's panel includes Matt Miller, moderating from the Center. On the Left is Robert Scheer (TruthDig.com). Byron York (Washington Examiner) is on the Right. Also, Dahlia Lithwick (Slate).
