Thanks for the ping!
Oh yes they would, and worse. Our RAT Patricia Madrid struck down the mandatory law that says ALL first time voters who did NOT register in person MUST present a valid picture ID on their first time to vote. The RATS have been signing people up to vote. I read that there are over 100K or so new voters registered in NM. The RATS don't want people to have to show their ID because it would "disenfranchise" voters. What that REALLY means is that MANY illegal voters have been registered. We've got MASSIVE voter fraud in the works.
Struck down by a RAT judge, it has now been appealed to the NM Supreme Court. They will probably hear the case this week. I don't expect any relief from them either. I'll just say that I will be VERY surprised if they rule in favor of the LAW.
Right On DAC22. Get this message on to other posts. I am faxing my outrage to Judge Wendy York in NM immediately. Put Ralph Nader on the ballot and let the people decide.
Judge Wendy York ph' 505-841-7434 fax 505-841-5457
Let your voices be heard. Its time these 'black-robed hypocrites' be held accountable for denying the will of the people. GO PHONE OR FAX NOW! Keep Nader on the NM ballot.
Lived in New Mexico from 1942 to 1965 and last politcal rally I went to was to Governor Seven Foot Picket which really spots my age. It seemed that most Spanish Americans voted Democrat and I suppose still holds true. Whether this get to be a hot issue or not the Judge in question will probably pull a Rather.

ACLU of New Mexico Wins Halt to Albuquerque’s Second Attempt to Pass a Sex Offender Ordinance
January 5, 2004
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
ALBUQUERQUE, NM -- District Court Judge Wendy York has granted the American Civil Liberties Union a temporary restraining order barring implementation of “ASORNA,” the Albuquerque Sex Offender Registration and Notification Act, the ACLU of New Mexico announced today.
Signed into law by Mayor Martin Chavez last October, ASORNA would prohibit people convicted of sex crimes dating back to 1970 from being alone in a room with a child or within 30 yards of a child unless the child was their ward, their adopted or biological child, or their biological grandchild.
“No one wants to see dangerous sexual predators roaming free in our communities,” said Kari Morrissey, a cooperating attorney for the ACLU of New Mexico. “But this law treats all people convicted of sexual abuse as if they were imminent threats to society. It’s a waste of resources and it threatens to disrupt the lives of many people who are productive, law-abiding citizens.”
The law also ignores the fact that most sex offenses against children are committed by family members, she noted.
Under ASORNA, sex offenders would have to register with the Albuquerque Police Department (in addition to registering with the state’s Department of Public Safety), and also could be required to submit samples of their DNA, even though they were not suspected of criminal activity. In addition, the law would prohibit sex offenders from renting, purchasing, or occupying property within 1,000 feet of a school.
The restraining order lasts until January 20, when the court will hold an evidentiary hearing for a preliminary injunction. As recently as last June, the ACLU obtained a permanent injunction against another sex offender law, the Sex Offender Alert Program, passed by the Albuquerque City Council in April 2003.
“Once again, the Mayor and City Council refused to heed our counsel about the glaring constitutional problems in this legislation,” said Peter Simonson, Executive Director of the ACLU of New Mexico. “For the second time in nine months we had to go to court to make our point. It’s a shame that residents of Albuquerque have to pay taxes for such slip-shod lawmaking.”
In addition to Morrissey, cooperating attorneys for the ACLU include Melissa Hill and Eric Hannum. The complaint lists the ACLU as well as five “John Doe” plaintiffs, who wish to remain anonymous to protect against vigilantism.
What's the impeachment process in NM?
Maaaaaaan. You beat me here.
With all the newbies presently scouting out FR this may be risky, but to Hell with them.
If the log jam created by the Daschle Dims is not broken soon, perhaps other actions are needed to ensure honorable men and women are placed in judgeships.
Oh, well, "goin'down home" means different things to different folks, but we all expect them to "leave it there" when they come back to their real jobs.
They are corrupt to the bone!! We've ALWAYS had corruption in NM. The RATS 'own' NM!
Most judges are elected, and we can vote "not to retain", but it rarely happens. Getting rid of a bad judge, especially a Dim judge here is next to impossible.
Too bad, cuz I think there would be grounds.

Kerry, John
Yep, but what's that got to do with it? We can't even get the courts to enforce the first time voter ID law that Richardson signed!
Wow. With judges and the mainstream press working for him, Kerry is a shoe-in.
Who..Hell yes she should have recused herself from the Nader case
How are things further up the food chain, the State Supremes?
Bump!
Judges--esp judges this corrupt and arrogant-- don't give a damn what a bunch of Freepers fax or email them.
If you want to be productive, send your faxes or emails to the national media: opinionjournal, fox, drudge, limbaugh, Hannity, Savage, etc.
Keep this story out there on the national scene and that will do the trick. Not faxes and letters that go straight in the circular file.
