Let's find judges without opinions?! Good luck finding 9 Mr. Spocks to fit that bill!
Judges are human. They're all opinionated. We need to find judges who are opinionated towards a strict constructionist interpretation of the Constitution. A judge like that would have to overturn Roe v. Wade.
We're NOT demanding activist judges. That's a red herring if I've ever seen one. Roe v. Wade would not OUTLAW abortions. It would merely overturn the court-sanctioned legalization of abortion, return power to the states and then we can fight this battle where it belongs, in the legislatures. If that's not constructive interpretation of the Constitution, you tell me what is?
How could a true conservative oppose that?
BTW, do you consider Rhenquist, Scalia, Thomas and Bork to be "activist judges"?
Thomas is the only one who is true to that mode of thought.
Opinions are like ********, everyone has one.
Bork would have been in that mold. But he was Borked!
As will any more of them.
Unfortunate, but a fact.
Opinions on abortion are the least of my concerns in getting a judge through the congress.
