Don Willett Quote

Judges should always behave judicially by adjudicating, never politically by legislating. I leave policy to policymakers. They're preeminent, but they're not omnipotent. In other words, lawmakers decide if laws pass, but judges decide if laws pass muster. There's a fateful difference between activist judges who concoct rights and active judges who dutifully protect the rights our Framers actually enshrined.
