She and and Kagan performed same sex marriages, but did not recluse themselves from the case that redefined marriage, when that case came before the Supreme Court. They both lost their legacy at that point. They played partisan politics and continued down the path of activist judges who’s ruling create law out of whole cloth, and circumvent the other two branches of government.
As the New York Slimes reported on May 18, 2015:
The groom and groom strolled down the aisle to the mellow strains of “Mr. Sandman.”
Wearing her black robe with her signature white lace collar, Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg presided over the marriage on Sunday afternoon of Michael Kahn, the longtime artistic director of the Shakespeare Theater Company in Washington, and Charles Mitchem, who works at an architecture firm in New York.
The gilded setting was elegant: Anderson House in the Embassy Row neighborhood, the headquarters in Washington of the Society of the Cincinnati, a club for the descendants of the French and American soldiers who fought in the Revolutionary War. During the ceremony, the couple slipped black and gold Harry Winston rings onto each other’s fingers.
But the most glittering moment for the crowd came during the ceremony. With a sly look and special emphasis on the word “Constitution,” Justice Ginsburg said that she was pronouncing the two men married by the powers vested in her by the Constitution of the United States.
Justice Ginsburg. Making law on the job and off.
