Let’s be honest. Judges are politicians. They belong to political parties. Our Founders weren’t prescient enough to envision this two-party system we have, a system in which justice, constitution, tradition, simply are irrelevant.
If you put a liberal question to liberal judges, they will approve the liberal position and justify it with a lot of fluff.
We seriously need to term limit judges, and I mean short terms. One senatorial length term of 6 years at each level of the federal judiciary. After that they go back to chasing ambulances.
Bump to term limiting judges. Lower court judges, six years, SCOTUS, 10 years.
And let’s term limit Congress while we’re at it.
18th century England had a two-party system with many of the failings of our own.
