The left holds up Justice Ruth Bader Ginsberg as a paradigm of what a perfect Supreme Court justice should be.
Which says a lot about leftists.
At an awards ceremony she said:
“The text I interpret most often is the U.S. constitution; it is, indeed, a living constitution. Who would want to be governed by a dead one?”
That comment is actually an admission that she's betraying America and not holding to her oath of office.
To see why that's let's start by asking what it means to be living? In this context it means to grow and change. But the Constitution does not in fact grow and change unless it's amended as defined in the Constitution itself.
But dishonest judges like RBG say that the Constitution changes and grows without we the people amending it. Essentially what she and other dishonest judges are saying is that the Constitution can be interpreted to mean whatever they want it to mean.
America is built as a society on the Rock of the Constitution; the compact between past, present, and future and between the governed and the governors about what is and isn't allowed. But RBG and other judges have made that rock into a mound of clay which they, and only they, can mould into whatever they think it should really be without any concern about what we the people want.
When she took her office she swore the following Oath:
“I, _________, do solemnly swear (or affirm) that I will administer justice without respect to persons, and do equal right to the poor and to the rich, and that I will faithfully and impartially discharge and perform all the duties incumbent upon me as _________ under the Constitution and laws of the United States; and that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic; that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully discharge the duties of the office on which I am about to enter. So help me God.”
She swore to defend the Constitution as written yet she's now saying that she can simply change it if she and 4 of her colleagues think that's what best for America.
Changing the law as they see fit is hardly defending the Constitution.
But leftists say that RBG and the other leftists justices are just improving the Constitution because they're such wonderful people.
Interestingly RBG told the New York Times in 2009:
“Frankly I had thought that at the time Roe was decided, there was concern about population growth and particularly growth in populations that we don’t want to have too many of,”
Just what population of Americans is there that RBG thinks we shouldn't have more of? Whites, Blacks, Hispanics, Asians, the poor, immigrants? Whichever groups she was thinking of it reflects a rather racist and/or elitist worldview.
Hardly what you'd want to hear from a person who is capable of altering the Constitution without the consent of we the people.
That she's not a person who supports the Constitution can also be seen in her belief that Catholic nuns should be compelled by the government to help provide abortions. The First Amendment is clear that people can exercise their faith which means live what they believe. Apparently RBG is one of those leftists who wants the Constitution to only protect the right of people of faith to go to church on Sunday not actually live their faith.
It's time to end the tyrannical rule of the Supreme Court and force the Court to simply interpret laws in light of the intent of those who passed the laws. Every component of the radical Democrat social agenda--abortion, gay marriage, coddling criminals, legalizing porn, etc-- has been imposed on we the people by the Supreme Court not passed by Congress.
Lets return power to the people and end RBG's reign of terror!
