‘Justice’ Ginsburg swore to uphold the Constitution yet, when commenting on the possible new ‘Constitution’ of Egypt, declined to support the USA Constitution saying that Egypt should look to other country’s Constitutions. ‘Justice’ Ginsburg would be impeached, if we were allowed to impeach anyone on the USSC.

Justice Ginsburg is one of the most bloodthirsty abortionists in the sordid history of the Supreme Court. For her to decry judicial activism and equate that with a propensity to find unconstitutionality in federal legislation is typical of her distortion of language, her duty, and our system of government.

Since Marbury vs. Madison the test has been whether a case before the court presents an issue of unconstitutionality. Judicial activism is not finding unconstitutional legislation unconstitutional, judicial activism is creating constitutional dogma out of thin air as the court did in Roe vs. Wade which justice Ginsburg has sought to expand at every turn. It is the duty of the court to avoid judicial activism but to enforce the Constitution. It is equally activist to fail to strike down unconstitutional legislation, such as occurred in Obamacare, as it is to strike down constitutional legislation, whether that legislation emanate from the federal or state governments, such as occurred in Roe V Wade.

Federal legislation has no primacy over state legislation if it is not pursuant to an enumerated power of the federal government. To uphold legislation which is not so authorized is activist in the extreme and it is, sadly, the increasing tendency of justices like Ginsburg to distort our Constitution and our government by this kind of judicial arrogance.

RE :”Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg believes the Roberts Court is “one of the most activist courts in history,” according to a widely cited interview with the NYT‘s Adam Liptak. “

Saw this.
My first response was :”Didn't you rule with the 5-4 majority to overturn a 10,000 year old time tested tradition? Hetrosexual Marriage?? The foundation of the family and raising kids?

She has a lot of nerve to whine about activism (specifically she means overturning laws.)

AH!

Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg believes the Roberts Court is “one of the most activist courts in history,” according to a widely cited interview with the NYT‘s Adam Liptak.

Shocking honesty from a liberal! What else but activism can explain the invalid, obviously incorrect and no doubt politically- or blackmail-motivated O-Scare "ruling"?

One or more of Mark Levin's Liberty Amendments addresses the out of control Judiciary:

-----------

Restoring the Judiciary to its proper role:

The Judiciary was never meant to be an all-powerful institution in which five men in robes have the final say over every major policy battle in the country. In order to end judicial tyranny, Levin proposes limiting service to one 12-year term, and granting both Congress and the state legislatures the authority to overturn court decisions with the vote of three-fifths of both houses of Congress or state legislative bodies.
