Fair Hearing for Janice Rogers Brown

In some quarters, Janice Rogers Brown is getting a fair hearing.

Jonathan Turley, a law professor I remember well from my days at GWU, says that Democrats should drop their filibuster over Brown and nine other nominees.

In an Op-Ed in the Los Angeles Times he writes:

"Janice Rogers Brown of the California Supreme Court is equally conservative — she once called the New Deal a "socialist revolution." But however inflammatory her remarks outside the courtroom, Brown's legal opinions show a willingness to vote against conservative views, particularly in criminal cases, when justice demands it."

Turley's view is telling. He calls himself a "pro choice social liberal" and he is.

But Turley speaks the truth when he sees it. Visit JonathanBWilson.com for the rest of the story.

Turley's Op-Ed is available from the Los Angeles Times http://www.latimes.com/news/opinion/commentary/la-oe-turley18apr18,0,854682.story?coll=la-news-comment-opinions

Love this women!:


Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible.
-CA Justice Janice Rogers Brown

We no longer find slavery abhorrent. We embrace it. We demand more. Big government is not just the opiate of the masses. It is the opiate. The drug of choice for multinational corporations and single moms; for regulated industries and rugged Midwestern farmers and militant senior citizens.
-CA Justice Janice Rogers Brown

She needs "face time" on the MSM TV so that people get to see just who the Democrats are stalling.

Why doesn't the MSM give Janice Brown face time on TV?

[Hmmm]
