Holy crackers! The Michigan Supreme Court did it!

This is huge. Absolutely huge! It not only sets law for the State of Michigan, it creates a precedence for the rest of the country. People in other states can cite this to get similar rulings in their own states.
And note that the majority (5-2) opinion was written by a Republican-nominated judge.
