Every two bit thugocracy has "judges" -- and their law is not legitimate because it doesn't come from the governed. If our judges set themselves above the people, they'll lose what respect they have left.
Judges are lawyers are judges and on and on. None of them want to offend another one or disrupt the racket they've got going. This holds true from the worst bottom-feeding ambulance chaser to Supreme Court Justices. Unless and until we break that stranglehold, we're screwed and, here's a clue: talkin' ain't gonna do it. These guys'll talk and file injunctions holding off the Second Coming!
