“Obama appointed 55 to the circuit courts. We’ve made tremendous progress in two years but we’re only half way to undoing the damage.”

FYI, I know one of the Senior Circuit Court judges - Norman Stahl of the 1st Circuit. He’s a distant cousin of my wife, and he’s now 87. He was appointed by Bush 41. I doubt that he’d remember me - we had dinner about 18 years ago at his brother’s house in New Hampshire one Friday night. He seemed disappointed that I was practicing as a CPA despite having a law degree - oh, well, too bad.

But the point is that he’s 87. I certainly don’t wish him badly - not as a human being, and not as a relative. But now or in the near future would be a good time to resign and spend his remaining years with his wife and kids. I’m thinking that the Bush clan is now less unfavorably disposed toward Trump, given his very vigorous defense of Kavanaugh (who worked directly under Bush 43).

Thanks for sharing.

I guess I'll never understand why anyone of that age still works. Time spent with others instead of family ? Time not spent doing what ever the hell you want ?
