How quaint, a judge uses his inherent discretion in a way that pleases a given person and hooray for the man in the black robe. But, let the same judge exercise his judicial discretion in another case that displeases the same poster, and the judge becomes a demonic, usurping judicial tyrant. Thus, it's situational ethics and partisan predispositions that drive the opinion of an observer. It is subjectively based and not founded in objective analysis.

Uh-huh. Which one of the 111 stabs was subjective? What part of "THOU SHALT NOT KILL" is unclear? When a judge upholds the moral law we must support the judge.

When a judge bends the law subjectively AWAY from moral law, that is indeed when they are usurping judicial tyrants.

Many Freepers are loathe to admit that they want activist judges as long as they think like they do. Good post.
