What is wrong with her comments?

Her job as a judge isn’t to interpret law, it is to apply the law as written.

She should not be a judicial activist.

As a lower court judge, he position is to rule based on the previous Supreme Court rulings, not to interpret them based on her political/personal opinions.

From the position of a lower court judge, her job is to rule based on the precedents set in previous cases.

You want to change R v W, charge it at the level of the Supreme Court.

Her answers in the OP are wholly appropriate and the exact mindset I would want from a lower court judge.
