I didn't claim that it was only federal Supreme Court, that was just the last time I recall hearing it.
Regardless, I've heard it used for abortion, gun control, gay marriage, affirmative action, you name it. If a Supreme Court ruling falls in line with what's considered a liberal view point, it's decried as "legislating from the bench", no matter the subject matter. I've heard it aimed at so many things I can't possibly agree that he was aiming that specifically at the gay haters.
