This morning, Sen. Jeff Sessions (R-Ala.) takes to the opinion pages of the Washington Post to discuss President Obama's Supreme Court nominee, saying, "the American people will want to know whether [Obama] is choosing someone who is committed to the text of the Constitution and the vision of the Founding Fathers, or whether his nominee is an activist." To make his case, Sen. Sessions talks about the Supreme Court's terrible decision in Citizens United v. FEC that threw out decades of common sense restrictions on corporate and union interference in our elections. Sen. Sessions says, that "justices sided with the Constitution and individual Americans," and President Obama was wrong to criticize it.  Sided with individual Americans you say? According to the Washington Post/ABC News poll, 80 percent of Americans actually agree with President Obama. Eight out of 10 Americans oppose the decision, and it's President Obama that's out of touch? The Court's decision will increase the fundraising pressure members of Congress face, allow entrenched corporate interests unlimited ability to influence our elections, and further drown out the voices of the everyday Americans. As someone who voted for Chief Justice John Roberts and Associate Justice Samuel Alito--part of the razor-thin 5-4 majority in Citizens United--I guess Sen. Sessions might know a thing or two about activist judges. But, Senator, a justice that shows "a keen understanding of how the law affects the daily lives of the American people," doesn't an activist make.
