« Girls and guns | Main | Quote of the day--D'Arcy Cain »

[W]hen a judge goes beyond [his proper function] and reads entirely new values into the Constitution, values the framers and ratifiers did not put there, he deprives the people of their liberty. That liberty, which the Constitution clearly envisions, is the liberty of the people to set their own social agenda through the process of democracy.

The took care of him, didn't they? How dare he say such outrageous things!

His name is now a verb.

When are we going to learn to push back?
