#60: Supreme Court Nomination [Issue by Nuttylnd]

The Issue
The death of 108 year old Supreme Court Justice @@RANDOMNAME@@ has created an opening on the bench. Below are the possible nominees.

The Debate
1. @@RANDOMNAME@@, the Former CEO of @@NAME@@ Products, says "I have long sat by and watched our government vicously attack the big businesses in this country. The government has no right to control businesses and I will adopt that position in all of my judgements."

2. Reverend @@RANDOMNAME@@ is nominee #2. The Reverend says "I am sick and tired of the liberals in this country ruining our family values. Every day they assault our basic sense of decency. You must vote for me to keep our families safe. Think of the children!!"

Does that bolded option decrease civil rights or political freedoms at all? Normally I wouldn't care but I'm a Free-Market Paradise now and I like it, and I also have "Some" civil rights, normally I find that Free-Market Paradises have "Few" so I'm balancing on a razor's edge here.
