Probably true, but the Dems are spinning it as picking on and roughing up a little girl because of a french fry.That's why it is important that the truth be told.

The Dems' tactics are always the same:
1. Divorce a case from the underlying legal principles and focus on a misleading negative image or slogan. ("Judge Smith ruled that grandmas can't live with their grandchildren.")
2. Ignore the rules governing appellate cases, where the basis of the ruling is generally very narrow and where appellate judges are not allowed to dispute facts not presented for appeal.
3. Act as if the judge voted alone (ignore concurrent votes by liberal judges).
4. Mention who won or lost a case (big business/minorities/women) and ignore the underlying facts of the case and the law in question. ("Judge Bork votes for big business.")
5. Describe the judge as an "ideologue" or "extremist" without explaining what those terms mean.
