Hatch has already commenced caterwauling about "activist judges"
on MSNBC. Like those R SCOTUS nominees never attempted to legislate from the bench.

1. Now, now, it's judicial restraint if they agree with Hatch's political views! (nt)

2. He was ridiculous, wasn't he?
As if Roberts, Scalia, and Alito aren't "activist" judges. :rofl:

3. Just like those "activist judges"
who crammed Bush down the country's throat on Dec 12,2000. I can't think of a liberal judge on SCOTUS who has acted as an activist in any way. The use of the word "activist" is the dog whistle to conservatives to gear up for the coming battle royale for the SCOTUS selection.
