That's pure bullsh*t. You don't expect us to believe that a corrupt or imcompetent judge is untouchable, do you?

Judges are not untouchable, but I don't believe the Governor of a state has the authority to remove a Federal judge. I'm not even sure they have the authority to remove a state judge just because they disagree with the judge's decision, unless it can be proved that the judge is receiving money or something else that would imply criminal activity.

Actually, let me revise that: Judges are very close to untouchable, and that is one of the problems with our system (as we can see in many judicial decisions, such as those of the 9th Circuit COurt, for example). Most judges - such as this one - are busy imposing a liberal agenda, and there seems to be no way to reach them or control them once they have obtained a judgeship.

It is time for Gov. Bush to have the State Police take over Terri's room and prevent Wednesday from happening.

What the downside? The judge is going to come down and yell at the governor? I'd tell the judge to get lost.I'm the governor and I'm stepping in to prevent a murder. Don't like it, tough! Go back to your courtroom and write opinions. As long as I am governor, this person lives.

A citizen of the state is having her life taken from her withput her consent, based on flimsy evidence to the contrary by a man who has a financial gain in seeing her die.

Anyone who can't see the injustice in that is unwilling to.

You keep throwing those words around, but just because the judge rules against our position does not make them either.

Take, for example, Ruth Bader Ginsburg. Almost never has she ruled in a way I've liked, nor did she take a position as an attorney that I did.

Yet, I don't think that it's appropriate to call her corrupt or incompetent. Just wrong.
