Chuck Douglas: 'New' Justice Souter is not the one I remember By CHUCK DOUGLAS Guest Commentary
THIS MONTH marks the 20th anniversary of the New Hampshire Supreme Court decision titled Merrill vs. City of Manchester.

OK pal, where's Jim?
He's been zotted.
About dang time.
I'm sorry, but Dick Swett sounds like something you'd need a medicated powder of some type to deal with.
Geez, I've seen some unfortunate names in my time, but this is right up there in the top ten. "Dick Swett" Where are Beavis and Butthead when ya need 'em?
His wife is the lovely and gracious Katrina Lantos Swett, daughter of Tom Lantos, D-California. They have a whole raft of kids with names like "Kismet".
Hey...did you post get pulled? :)
Imagine Jim Robinson a stealth troll! I don't even think the viking kitties would have the heart to do it!
Is it possible that some radical leftists will masquerade as conservatives for their entire judicial careers at the relatively unimportant state levels just so they can position themselves to be Republican SCOTUS nominees?

: )
(Just kidding!! Please don't zot me!!)
