Judge David O. Carter is a worm. He has no honor. Hiring a Obama mole in the middle of a case as one of his clerks.
You don't know what happened.
Judge Carter is a decorated Vietnam vet, he was at Khe Sahn. Not much would scare him personally.
Just suppose that threats against him, personally, had no effect.
A man who cannot be moved by fear may be moved by love. What would he (or you?) do if all of the sudden some showed up in your office with pictures of your favorite granddaughter getting off her school bus, with cross-hairs drawn on her face? Just a friendly little talk, find legal grounds to dismiss this case, hire a lawyer we select to keep an eye on you...
Not saying it happened, but what if?
(If something even vaguely like this happened they have made a life-long enemy paybacks gonna be a cast iron 6itch)
Perhaps you are being too harsh on the judge. If you read the posted Joan Swirsky article, you might conclude that he "was made an offer he couldn't refuse" (as per the film "The Godfather").
Yes, the hiring of that "Obama mole" was a tipoff that the integrity of the judicial process was being compromised!
NOT!
Judge Carter was dealing with pleadings that were a bit of a legal dog's breakfast, brought to the wrong court. What he did was draw a very precise roadmap for getting this issue before the right court in the right form.
There are some things in the decision that none of us likes, but overall, this was a loss in front of a fair and restrained judge, whose directions, if heeded, will lead us where we want to go. Now, the real work begins.
