Judges have the right to make decisions that check the powers of Congress, Congress can check judges through advice and consent (which by the way includes filibustering nutjobs that are out of the main stream to protect the minority from the mob rule of the current majority), and Presidents get to check both of those branches of government.  You see its called checks and balances.  Its more complicated than that, but basically the judicial branch is equal to each of the other branches. Judges have the right to make decisions that impact the other two branches of government, that check their powers.  There are rules involved and those rules are being followed by judges to include those decisions you or I or any number of others may not agree with specifically.  Its idiots in power right now that try to turn people against them with talking points, lies, and little spinners like you rolling into groups like this to stir things up that are the ones doing diservice to this country and those voters not smart enough or willing enough to do the research.

I for one believe a judge brings their values and beliefs with them to the bench.  I believe in mainstream judges, of which this person is not.  They make decisions based on the law and their experience with the law.  The Constitution is not something written in stone, nor is it particularly clear on every point.  The 2nd amendment for instance is about giving the people the ability to bear arms not to protect this country but to protect people from this country gone tragically wrong.  something we see more and more of every day Georgie boy sits on his throne.  It was written specifically to be interpreted by coming generations because the founders didn't believe they were perfect.  They understood to keep some things a bit fuzzy.  Changes in that interpretation have yielded great advances over time.  Abolition of slavery, more equal rights and protections for the common man from elitist businessmen, etc.  Interpretation requires individual judgment and yes that judgement may differ from the far right conservative nutjobs out there, or even the far left.  But in general, over time it all works out.  Roe may fall, but then again that can be fixed too in time.  The key is to understand that these are lifetime appointments and they are serious.  This judge is dangerous to womens rights.  A few pieces of private property changing hands here and there is meaningless, a few businesses losing money or not making as much as they'ld like off the backs of others and our environment is meaningless compared to a womans right to have freedom over her own body.  Not just because of what it means to her but what it means to all of us.  I love guns, I want to keep mine.  However, I'll choose a woman's right over my guns any day of the week.  So this judge, this judge gets fought each and every step of the way.  I don't care about private property rights (and I own property), I don't care about guns (I own plenty of them in case you right wingers get ideas in your heads more dangerous than those you've already carried out), I care about our basic rights of freedom and the serious threat they are under by this administration and the cronies it appoints.  This judge may in the end get approval, but its gonna hurt.  Its going to be bloody and in the end the American people are going to see this administration for the danger it truly represents.

Just as we would be quick to say we understand something like inner city crime, it doesn't mean we condone it.

The underpinning point, certainly, is that our government does not make a real effort to address the root causes of many problems.

No one on the right has any moral authority on the abortion issue as long as the bastards continue to strip away money for Food Stamps, Head Start, and other programs that allow single mothers to barely stay above water.

That, I think, is why many anti-abortion Dems feel brutalized by the political process: we're simply asking that people do the right damn thing, and somehow both the left and the right have enough piss and vinegar in them to tell us we're wrong.
