Justices Quotes:
Secularist justices de-Christianized our country. They invented new rights for vicious criminals as though criminal justice were a game. They tore our country apart with idiotic busing orders to achieve racial balance in public schools.
Pat Buchanan
As president, I will only nominate judges – including Supreme Court justices – who will commit to upholding Roe v. Wade as settled law and protect women’s reproductive rights.
Kirsten Gillibrand
Our chief justices have probably had more profound and lasting influence on their times and on the direction of the nation than most presidents.

What secret knowledge, one must wonder, is breathed into lawyers when they become Justices of this Court that enables them to discern that a practice which the text of the Constitution does not clearly proscribe, and which our people have regarded as constitutional for 200 years, is in fact unconstitutional?
Antonin Scalia
If you want a president who will upend the status quo in Washington, D.C., and appoint justices of the Supreme Court who will uphold the Constitution, we have but one choice, and that man is ready. This team is ready. Our party is ready and when we elect Donald Trump, the 45th president.
Mike Pence
Hillary Clinton will nominate justices to the Supreme Court who are prepared to overturn Citizens United!

Conservative Justices have a history of not standing by their professed commitment to judicial restraint.
Adam Cohen

‘Bush v. Gore’ gave us a president who lost the popular vote, eventually appointed two more justices, and led us into a war of choice while failing to regulate a financial system dependent on toxic mortgage-backed derivatives.

Marvin Ammori

Republicans can nominate bad Justices, too. Earl Warren, William Brennan, Harry Blackmun, David Souter… the list goes on.
Wendy Long
And I think within the pages of The Betrayal of America I think I present an overwhelming case that these five justices were up to no good, and they deliberately set out to hand the election to George Bush.
