(CNSNews) – On May 17, Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg officiated the marriage of two men and used the occasion to cite her constitutional right to do so. In June, the high court – including Ginsburg’s vote - will announce its decision on whether homosexual marriage is guaranteed by the Constitution.
That’s grounds for impeachment, Alabama Supreme Court Chief Justice Roy Moore told CNSNews.com in an exclusive interview.
“She’s basically thumbing her nose in front of the other justices that she’s going to say what she wants to say and do what she wants to do, and she’s going to ignore the rules of ethics,” Moore said, adding that judges are bound by those rules.
“I think there’s grounds for the legislature of the United States and Congress to act,” Moore said. “They could act to impeach her; they could remove her for bad behavior, because judges serve for good behavior under Article 3 (of the Constitution).
Moore said the fact that Ginsburg made a public statement that she had a right under the Constitution to perform a same-sex wedding, under the ethics rules, is bad behavior given her role in deciding the Obergefell v. Hodges case.

I love it when judges fight.
ReplyDeleteIts OK. Its what these politicians do now.
ReplyDeleteIf they haven't found the hutzpah to impeach Obama yet, they'll never find it to impeach Ginsberg.
ReplyDeleteIf you know how a judge will decide before a case is heard what good is a SCOTUS? Foster state's rights, end the Fed, and all other unconstitutional agencies.
ReplyDeleteno different than roberts backing obamacare! the supremes are just a rubber stamp for all that is wrong with this country! why should we listen to anything they have to say?
ReplyDeleteKeep her in place until obama leaves office. Then he can't appoint .another liberal judge that we will have to live with.
