“I wish to share a little of that editorial where the Denver Post says: We are not afraid of a judge who strictly interprets the Constitution based solely on the language and intent of our nation's founders, as long as he is willing to be consistent even when those rulings conflict with his own beliefs. As Denver Attorney Jason Dunn, who considers himself a longtime fan of Gorsuch, explains, his views stem ``from a belief in a separation of powers and in a judicial modesty that it is not in the role of the courts to make law. Justice Scalia would put it: If you like every one of your rulings, you're probably doing it wrong.'' That is similar to what you and I heard Judge Gorsuch say last night; that a good judge doesn't rule based on what a judge likes to have happen but what the law and the Constitution insists does happen.
