However, I still remember in the declaration of independence, the phrase; "The insolence of office" that attaches to not only electeds these days, but to too many appointed and even self-annointed who've been to too many Liberal "self-esteem" classes!!! Ha Ha ha!!!
Reminds me of the Cuban character in the movie "Scar Face" with Al Pacino. Pacino's character asks the Cuban, after he's chain-sawed up a bunch of people, why he loves killing so much. The Cuban answers:"They're Communists! I love to kill Communists!! They're always tryin to tell everybody what to do!!!"
Viva the anti-Communist Cuban guy!!!
Where did you get you're "poetic license?"
"As the founders intended."
How quaint.
Oh geez, Mark Furhman would still be on the stand and the OJ trial would still be going.
The art of firing (suing) is actually the art of hiring (electing).
Most judges are not appointed for life. Judicial candidates that have the potential to legislate from the bench are unidentifiable before election.
Each of us must use our best judgment when voting for members of the judiciary and then must be prepared to suffer the responsibilities of a democratic process. The only due process available in this jurisdiction should remain at the ballot box.
Insulation for local officials is another matter entirely since their actions, not their judgment, can be constrained by related, municipal, county and state codes and government actions are not immune form legal challenge, timely restraint and possible, consequent, monetary relief. It is nigh impossible to either litigate or legislate morality. It is impossible to guarantee character through such means.
Just about everyone else can be sued for almost any reason. To the judges, I say welcome to our world.
Perhaps this would bring on true judicial reform and "loser pays" to the courtrooms.
Then you want no judges at all.
Both of us, too. I didn't just read the "explanation", but read the entire sad document, start to finish.
It has so many nasty little bombs packed inside it, it makes a Pali ambulance look innocent.
