So when the SCOTUS upholds a law
Someone as totally bat shit crazy as Michele Bachmann declares that is the work of "activist judges".
“It really is a turning point in American history,” Bachmann told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer. “We will never be the same again. … For my mind, this is clearly unconstitutional. There is no basis in the Constitution for the government to have this level of history-making expansion of power.”If you can make sense of that quote more power to you. For years the Republicans have yelped about "activist Judges" when a judge would overturn one of their shitty little un-Constitutional laws. And now The Queen of the Batshit Crazy has given away the game. "Activist judge" simply means one who rules according to law and not the way she wants.
“I urge people to read the dissent that was read from the bench by Justice Kennedy and joined in by Justices Alito and also Scalia,” she continued. “Because that opinion said very clearly that this was an activist court that you saw today. What they did was not just uphold Obamacare, this Supreme Court rewrote Obamacare in line with its own designs. So this is an even more far-reaching decision than anyone had expected or imagined.”
