While you continue to dodge the question of what positions make someone “right,” I will be happy to provide examples. While I would never engage in a same sex marriage, denying same sex couples the benefits of marriage afforded to those of opposite sexes violates the 14th Amendment. That does not mean anyone has to be compelled to participate. As I have stated repeatedly, I believe that any baker can deny a custom cake order. I also think that the entire qualified immunity doctrine is judicial hogwash that has no basis in the Constitution. A good Judge or Justice should be able to leave their politics at the door and apply the Constitution wherever that may lead. The starting point should not be the conclusion and working backwards. The sad part about this is that President Trump has named some good Judges, but they are not on the short list. I would support Judge Amy St. Eve, a Trump nominee to the 7th Circuit, had he chosen to appoint her to the Supreme Court. |
