Supreme Court justices aren't supposed to speak for the people, they're supposed to speak for the Constitution. That's the reason they're appointed, for life, rather than elected.

Perfectly stated. The dems want to keep the momentum away from that principle. We want to take it back.

They are not supposed to speak for themselves either or for laws external to the Constitution. IE: Laws in other countries have nothing to do with American laws.
