Article is really interesting. Brings up alot of good questions.

What the hell does "conservative" mean anyway ? A judge like Alito who may wish to change policies set by "Roe vs. Wade" is called conservative, but clearly that would not be following the traditional conservative resistance to change. Hell the constitution in general is alot more liberal then the repulbican party platform. If taking conservative to mean what the root word means they clearly aren't.


The article doesn't really distiniguish between their votes and personal beliefs though. If the judges job is to prevent legislator from violating the constitution, but they personally feel something should be some other way, their supposed to be voting based on the former right?
