Supreme Madness

A timely lament. Conservatives have seen this type of judicial activism for years, especially the part where judges appointed by Republicans switch sides on key cases. Sandra Day O'Connor comes to mind. It isn't just frustrating because your side lost. It is frustrating to see how laws and interpretation are now a thin veil covering a naked activist push to overturn traditional institutions in America. The fact that judges even cite case law to support or deny their decisions is a quaint relic of a time when judges applied the law and didn't re-write it. Now I'm lamenting...
