Oh Good heavens, a New Jersey lawyer just said on the MSNBC thread that the New Jersey State Supremes make the Florida Election 2000 Suprmeme Court look like conservatives.'

[GraniteStateConservative]

Absolutely. Only Vermont, maybe, has a more liberal state supreme court.

[SternTrek]

yes, but don't worry too much. the NJ Supreme court hates politics no matter which side is pushing it. it should be interesting to see how this plays out.

[GraniteStateConservative]

They issued the UNANIMOUS Boy Scout ruling the SCOTUS overturned.

Yes. NJ really has one of the best judicial systems in the nation, and by tradition governors always appoint 1/2 dems and 1/2 repubs (the party in power gets the swing seat). But with a recent vacancy McGreevy violated this decades old rule and puta dem in a republican seat. But even the republicans on the court are liberal, although NOT necessarily dishonest.
