USPOL, supreme court 

So much for conservatives being against "activist judges".

If the US supreme court is undoubtedly an "activist" organization that's involved in the creation and amendment of legislation, then it stands to reason that it needs to be a directly elected representative of the people.

USPOL, supreme court 

@urusan To me, the underlying issue is that justices will decide what their ruling will be first, then figure out how to support it after the fact in an opinion, using ideas like originalism, pragmatism, and even minimalism as rhetorical weapons instead of as tools to guide their decisions. It's intellectually dishonest.
