It's weird how you want justices to mete out your version of the law, rather than have justices that are respected for being fair. America is broken in 2. How sad.
You mean like Sotomayor, who never sat the bench before the USSC, declared FEELINGS should impact decisions, and was nominated / appointed because she believes in legislating from the bench?!
I agree, both sides are like that, it's a shame. I personally would want a Supreme to be known for being objective. Not someone who leans one way or the other.
Me too, the fact is that the SC has always been political; however, for the first time it has four and maybe five members who claim an ideology. Roberts maybe become a swing vote, since he seems at times to respect the assume responsibility of the Supreme Court.
IMO and I'm not alone, originalism [the judicial interpretation of the constitution that aims to follow closely the original intentions of those who drafted it] is foolish, the average high school graduate knows more about the world than anyone of the founding fathers.
