Question - where is the majority opinion? Is it online yet? Did you read it? If not, how can you be sure that Ginsburg "shredded" the arguments embraced by the majority?
An impartial judge or attorney doesn't make up his/her mind until they have heard BOTH sides of an argument, right timmytard?

Maybe Little Timmy-tard can make a correction to his dissent?!?!

Rare correction made in Justice Ginsburg’s dissent on Texas voter ID law
October 23, 2014
[I]t turns out Ginsburg overstated her case in at least one regard.
Aside from “small stylistic changes,” Wednesday’s correction erases a sentence from Ginsburg’s official dissent that refers to photo identification cards issued by the U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs not being an acceptable form of ID in Texas -- when they actually are.
“Accordingly, the Justice deleted the following sentence from the dissent: ‘Nor will Texas accept photo ID cards issued by the U.S. Department of Veterans’ Affairs,’” the Supreme Court said Wednesday in a written statement.
As it currently stands, the Texas law allows seven types of approved ID documentation, including handgun licenses. The problem some groups had was that it did not include some types of identification ... Veterans Affairs ID's, though, are acceptable.
