I couldn't quite place a tune for that. Here's my effort at something singable as patter song (not quite sure the name of the tune I'm placing it with mentally--maybe I'll sequence it).
All judges are good (yes so wonderfully good)
The great George Greer especially so.

His outstanding knowledge and obvious wisdom,
  are always right out there to see
He ponders the facts; never one has he missed 'n
His rulings are free of all signs of faith Christian.
He's legally blind but no one can resist 'em
The great mighty Lord Judge Greer!

The voters in Florida just re-elected him
  so he must certainly be the best.

Judge Greer is far better than that other guy who
  had darèd to challenge his throne.
He cheated and got some illegal endorsements.
Ignoring what all the campaign rules of course meant.
For rules all mean nothing without some enforcement.
All hail the high Lord Judge Greer!

How can it be, then, that so many people
  find fault with this fine judge?

They must be mistaken, or else very stupid,
  to quarrel with George, George, and Michael.
These three fine fellows want what's best for Terri.
If you don't believe that, your mind must be very
prepared to discover things shocking and scary.
Best hail the high Lord Judge Greer!

LOL!!!

I can't think of the tune, as I am a little weak in the Gilbert & Sullivan department.
But your poem is a vast improvement on mine.
And if a tune comes to mind, I'll certainly let you know.
