“Lady Justice has often been depicted wearing a blindfold. The blindfold represents impartiality....”
The blindfold is a symbol of an IDEAL, to which our justice system should aspire. I agree wholeheartedly with that aspiration.
However, in the real world justice is not always blind, especially in the realm of politics. We need look no further than the Bret Kavanaugh confirmation hearings to find a glaring example of that. Another example is the Mueller investigation into allegations that the Trump campaign colluded with Russia to influence the 2016 elections, stacked with anti Trump prosecutors.
I don’t understand why you are still arguing the point. Do you believe Kavanaugh is being judged impartially by the Democrat Senate committee members? Do you trust Mueller’s team to be impartial?
Judiciary hearings are not a courtroom. We see that in the lousy half assed cross examination of Ford. Mueller is not suppose to be impartial. His job is to prosecute.
I think we’re getting off track here. My argument with you is simply that everyone below Obama should be prosecuted by the best prosecutors available on earth and put in jail as long as they can possibly be put in jail regardless of party affiliation or anything else. As you say, Lady Justice’s blindfold is a goal...……….we should strive to achieve it.
