No, as a matter of fact, I haven't.

All I'm saying is that we are supposed to live in a representative democracy, so the people we ELECT make the laws. The judges are supposed to INTERPRET, not make their own laws.

In addition, they provide a constitutional check as well as an interpretive check.

I seem to remember that we all felt the Supremes would knock down campaign finance reform which was enacted by our representative democracy, yet many felt was unconstitutional.
