Yes, Mr. Vice President. However, the reason why they were given lifetime appointments was so that they DIDN'T inject themselves into the polictics of the thing.
That has clearly gone by the wayside.
The people's voice --laws dutifully and rightfully enacted by the people's representatives-- were completely ignored.
The judiciary has taken over the direction of this country. They are dictating what we can and can't say. They are dictating what we can and can't do. They are dictating exactly what we are and aren't to approve of (as a society).
They have become dictators within our own borders.
Judges are no longer men (or women) of sound reasoning and intepretation of the law. They are no longer men (or women) of principle.
Now, judges are men and women of sentiment. And, sentiment, Mr. Vice President doesn't last.
And, if the Executive and Legislative let this go on too much longer, neither will our Republic.
Which ones? Could you give citations? Does "not applied in the way I agree with" qualify as "completely ignored"?
They are no longer men (or women) of principle. Now, judges are men and women of sentiment.
It is odd that the same people who were accusing Judge Greer and the appellate judges of being cold monsters are now claiming that they are being ruled by sentiment instead.
Why was only one man, Judge Greer, the determinant of the facts in Terri's case?
Because that's the way Florida wrote its statute. Different proceedings will or will not involve a jury, depending upon what the law says.
Great response.
NOW HE RUNS THE LOCAL POLICE AND SHERIFF'S OFFICE. How can that be legal?
You're right, judges have become modern day dictators.
