Judge: Palin Used Her Child As a 'Prop'

A federal judge presiding over a case involving an autistic boy took a shot at former vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin for bringing her Down syndrome child on stage after a debate last year.

I guess it’s better to lobotomize and institutionalize your child like the Kennedys.

U.S. District Judge Naomi Reice Buchwald

Proof that even the mentally challenged can aspire to a career in the judiciary.

[newfreep]

Reminds me of a Tom Waits line....

"I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal labotomy."

This is the one reason I wanted to see the GOP get 41 seats—to block all of Hussein’s judicial appointments and keep Nazis like this off the bench...though I know it’s wishful thinking.

Bet that isn’t all he does with Ashley.

Rules...

My lord, are all liberals brain damaged? And this one is a judge??? Perhaps she'd be happier if we could just go back to the "good ol' days" when such children were locked away or sent away so "normal" people wouldn't be offended seeing them in public. Or perhaps she'd be much much happier if Sarah had aborted her son instead. The judge needs to be fired!

Hats off to Sarah Palin! Proud mom of and for all of her children and a role model and spokesperson for all families.

I can only imagine what this woman looks like.

[Steven Tyler]

Yessss, you freepers do not understand.

We should only showcase those family members who look like Heather Locklear or Brad Pitt

Those who are old, fat, clumsy, bald, near sighted (you know-those ones Liberials decide are no longer useful)
should remain locked up in the basement

This judge is a bigot. Is he infering that only children without disabilities should be allowed on stage with their politician parents? I’m glad Sarah doesn’t feel that way. This judge should be ashamed of himself. Sarah rocks!

[Albion Wilde]

When I’m a judge, I’m gonna use my rapt audience as a chance to talk about the films of Charlton Heston. ‘Cause I like ‘em.

ROFLMBO!

“What city are you in, daddy?”

[correctthought]

NYC; moving to PDX soon... an almost political lateral move.

[Albion Wilde]

Sarah brings out the demon in dems. Never seen anything like it...

As a woman in business, I can sincerely tell you that I've seen it often for the past 30 years. You would not believe the moronic, insecure, hate-filled behavior.

This judge being a woman, what is her excuse? That Sarah is a normal, fertile and yet politically active mother? That judge needs to fall asleep on the bench and slide off.

[Albion Wilde]

Some info on the judge. Appointed by Bill Clinton. She has two grown children and is married to Don Buchwald, a criminal defense attorney who represented Ashley Dupre, the call-girl whose liaison with former Gov. Eliot Spitzer led to his resignation.

Does the word "class" come to mind?

I didn't think so.

If you would like to share your feelings with Judge Buchwald regarding her inappropriate remarks, she can be reached at (212) 805-0194 (her chambers phone).

I plan to tomorrow...

The quotes from King Henry VI are amongst Shakespeare’s most famous including ‘ The first thing we do, let’s kill all the lawyers’.

It should have read, ‘..... let’s kill all the lawyers, before they become judges’.

[gidget7]

That so called judge is out of order. Boot her butt off the bench, asap!

[Finalapproach29er]

What a bastard thing to say.
