Somehow vowing to uphold the Constitution means something different to the leftist justices.


A fundamental thesis of Progressive ideology is the Constitution restricts government power too much. Therefore, ways have to be found to “work around” the limitations imposed by the Constitution.

So, to leftist judges, a major part of their job is to figure out ways to “get around” the limitations of the Constitution.

We see this very clearly in 2nd and 4th Amendment matters. The courts have pretty much gutted the 4th; they refuse to decisively strike down the legislature's violations of the 2nd.
