I certainly hope so. The USSC is seriously off track. It needs a strong
reminder that its job is to exercise the judicial power and leave the
legislative power where it was placed by the Constitution, rather than
acting like a super-legislature. ....

A primary task of the SCotUS is defending the Constitution against both the
legislature and the president. Both are prone to enact measures that the
Constitution forbids them to enact. Ditto the states. For example, the
Constitution says that "Congress shall pass no law .... abridging the
freedom of speech ...." yet Congress has done so many times. (What is so
hard to understand about "no law"?). For example, the Congress passed the
Comstock Act forbidding among other "obsceneties", the mere discussion of
birth control - and for over half a century you could have gotten 20 years
in prison for asking anyone, even your MD, how to avoid pregnancy. This
treason persisted until the early 1960s, when the SC overthrough that law.
Of course radical Christians, hell-bent on imposing papal morality, accused
the court of "acting like a super legislature".
