Religious right calls Reagan-appointed Supreme Court justice Sandra Day O'Connor "un-American"

From the religious right propaganda organ AgapePress:

...A conservative activist says some U.S. Supreme Court justices appear to be getting a little agitated with the criticism that's mounting against them. Supreme Court Associate Justice Sandra Day O'Connor is not happy with all of the current criticism focusing on "judicial activism." Jan LaRue of Concerned Women for America says O'Connor has trashed critics of the judiciary. "She actually, in her public statement, linked criticism from extremists to the serious threats that she and other judges receive -- and I think that is very unfair," she says. "It's baseless." LaRue says Justice O'Connor's comments also fly in the face of the First Amendment free-speech rights of all Americans. O'Connor is one of what critics call the "un-American six" who have ignored the Constitution's claim that it -- not foreign law -- is the final authority in the high court's rulings.
