Right you are, this is good of course but it’s not a big deal. The Rats still have a solid majority. Actually with these SOB’s a one vote majority is as good as a hundred.
I agree. It's good that this is happening but the reality is the courts are a lost cause. Trying to put judges that are not leftist hacks and will do what they are supposed to do is really an exercise in futility. What we need is fundamental change to the judicial system itself. Major change. Courts must again be fully constrained by the constitution and we must come up with a way for judges to be accountable to the people. Lifetime appointments are the problem. The solution is a tuff one but we must address this somehow.
Don’t be so glum. A huge number of the cases are decided by three judge panels. A majority would be better in case of en banc decisions, but this increase in numbers is yuge
