34. If you must continue.

"These arguments about activists judges and "judge made law" are usually right wing arguments aimed at undoing the power of judicial review." from post above. This in addition to "Have I just walked into free republic?" from your post #16, and "Usually, I have to have this discussion with right wingers." from your post #4, makes it plain that you think that anyone that disagrees with you is "right-wing".

Well I dont consider Thomas Jefferson as right wing and I happen to agree with him and not you.

But I can see that further discussion is futile.
