Roberts tends to judge based more on what he wants the law to say than how it is actually written. Even if he has to dance to hoops to have it seen that way.

I'd say he looks for strong derivative interpretations from Constitutional law.
Non-Constitutionalist justices look for any strand of derivation no matter how tenuous.
All Justices have to look for some derivations as the Constitution was written 200+ years ago,
with Amendments updating the Constitution along the way.

I'm actually glad rbg is hanging in there. My theory is that many swing voters may swing to Biden just so that the supreme court is even. Although we all know if the Democrats don't steal the election with mail in ballot harvesting trump might get 2 more supreme court picks maybe even 3

When given birth by the Constitution, their only task is was to call balls and strikes on the Constitution and Bills brought forth by the Representative bodies signed into Law by the Executive.
That was the function of State Supreme Courts as well.

the liberal view is the Constitution is a living document that can be interpreted differently as political winds shift. Strict Constitutionalists interpret it as written and not by their feelings or how they wish it was written. It can be changed but by Congress and Amendments. Not by judicial activism.

Actually, they don't.
Not all Justices do but, their duty as envisioned, by the Founders was to remand a case to the former Court with instruction. If a Constitutional remedy was not found in that Court, it was back to the lawmakers.
In no way did our Founders want 7 then 9 judges in judicial robes making laws.
That was not their purpose when instituted, that was the task given to Congress.

I'd say he has no place on the Court, much more no place as Chief Justice.
No argument needed, his record speaks for him.

It's sad I won't be around to water his grave, I love turf.

That's the problem, I'm waiting for you to post an original funny.
You remember the conversation or you're more senile than me.
Which is it?

I am beginning to conclude that youse people have no redeeming value and deserve whatever fate trump has planned for you. Just like the fate the Reverend Jim Jones had planned for his flock.
Now that's funny!
