I’m no real expert anymore either. I just want everyone to know most, if not all judges (these days, at least) have an outcome in mind first and find a way to bend and mold the legal precedent and the text of the document itself to reach that conclusion. They have a political position first and the legal reasoning comes second, which is backwards.
It is what it is, but listening to Carlsbad spew Fox propaganda that good conservatives follow strict constructionism and don’t do exactly what the more liberal judges do was becoming annoying so I felt the need to say something. Now that I’ve put him in his place and made him look like a jackass I’ll step back on this topic again and let the amateurs discuss.
