"I also propose that the rule of law is best preserved by a model of judicial restraint, and that the executive and legislative branches are in the best position to make policy judgments."

"I agree with you that that disparity is too great and have offered legislation for almost 10 years now to fix it."

"Judicial restraint is intended to assure that decisions are not based upon personal values or preferences but are instead made according to law."
