Here's the thing: some of us start from the point of view that the Constitution might be bad. I know it's sacrilegious. But from there, all sorts of rulings seem like improvements on a baroque 18th century piece of paper. If you DO uphold the Constitution as being "the greatest legal document ever made" (faith-based view) then yeah all these conservative SCOTUS put-downs seem logical to restoring the US source code. It's just a piece of paper though being stretched to apply to situations unimaginable to their originators and badly need of updates.
