Americans are not blind to the liberalisation of the judicial system.

The constitution requires interpretation. It's a point of contention. All the Justices on the Court 'uphold the constitution' but differ into what that means.
This isn't new either, it didn't start under Obama, the court has been a battleground for liberals and conservatives for ages. Abortion is still one of the big examples.
Besides it's unlikely they'll be able to ban abortion or gay marriage at this point.
