Bell noted that the courts "must recognize their role as the 'weakest branch of government' and pay due deference to the legislative and executive branches." He also noted that judges must be committed to a "reasoned vs. 'result-oriented' decisions."

Could it possibly be that the ‘bench’ is returning to reading the law as it was intended to be? Our law schools teach activism rather than how to read law and act accordingly. They rule from the bench rather than the books, a very dangerous precedent for the last 10 or so years.

How long before we'll hear cries of "Jeb Bush is a racist because he appointed a white man to a black seat" from the professional extortionists? Not long, I am sure.
