Judge Coughlin was appointed to the Denver District Court bench in May 1985.

That would make him a Reagan judge. T-H-A-N-K-Y-O-U, our dear friends, the RINO's. I'm trying to recall who it was, maybe Ed Meese, but I can't recall, who was making the recommendations. Reagan couldn't dare put anyone who was too conservative before the Senate, or the RINO Senator's wouldn't "risk" the political heat.

In my whole life, I've seen the tail wagging the dog, as the miniority RINO's call the shots in Republican Senates. Hey.. why be a Democrat, when being a Republican deflects the political right in a left-wing state, while being a Jeffords type RINO gives you 10x the influence in a Republican Senate?

Crack kills, fella. Pull up your pants, because your a$$ is showing. This was a state court judge, selected by state processes. The President and Senate had no hand in his selection.

Of course, considering your whole "Reagan and Meese were RINOs" opinion, there isn't much about you that has anything worth saying. My suggestion is that you try shutting the hell up before going into stupid rants in the future.

Nice try, friend.

But this judge is not a federal judge, and Reagan had exactly ZERO to do with his arrival on the bench. Colorado district judges are appointed by the governor of Colorado, with an initial 2-year retention election and then retention elections every 4 years.

The governor in 1985 was Richard D. Lamm, a Demoncrat.

You know, you could look all this stuff up before you post. I found it all in about 2 minutes.
