David Axelrod responded to McCain's speech on judges yesterday:

Barack Obama has always believed that our courts should stand up for social and economic justice, and what’s truly elitist is to appoint judges who will protect the powerful and leave ordinary Americans to fend for themselves.

Search Obama's website for "social justice" and you get seven results. Of those, only two reference Obama's own words. The first comes in a speech delivered on June 28, 2006:

More fundamentally, the discomfort of some progressives with any hint of religion has often prevented us from effectively addressing issues in moral terms. Some of the problem here is rhetorical - if we scrub language of all religious content, we forfeit the imagery and terminology through which millions of Americans understand both their personal morality and social justice.

So Obama wants judges who apply their religious beliefs to interpreting the law? He is saying that religion is how people understand social justice, and he wants judges to stand up for social justice, QED, he wants judges who bring their religious beliefs into the courtroom. Which brings us to the second mention of social justice on BHO's website--a post titled "My Faith and My Church" that ran on the Huffington Post just prior to Obama's major speech in Philadelphia on race (you remember the one, "I could no more disown..."):

It's a congregation that does not merely preach social justice but acts it out each day, through ministries ranging from housing the homeless to reaching out to those with HIV/AIDS.

So the Rev. Wright preaches social justice and Obama would appoint a Supreme Court justice who would "stand up" for the same principles. Why not just appoint Rev. Wright to the Supreme Court then?
