Activist Judges at it again

[crowMAW]

How do we get these idiots off the freaking bench?!  I don't understand how they can just ignore the Constitution like this.  Someone get a rope, cuz this guy deserves the DeLay treatment.

"This was done without either of us requesting it and at the judge's whim," said Jones,

yea that's pretty messed up.  The judge in question has no business determining what religion these people should or should not practice.  Unless it was proven in court that said religion was a danger to the child (cultism, human sacrifice, ect ect.) this guy shouldnt be sticking the states nose in it.

Ya cant get them off the bench, but ya CAN make sure more of them dont arrive, which is, to vote for CONSERVATIVE senators (take note I didnt say  Republicans)

A public school teacher can lose his or her job for teaching religion to kids, but a judge, thoroughly trained in law, can force it upon a family and get away with it…

Got a link as to the judges politics? I heard he was a rightwing radical
Please explain to me how you figure that conservative judges dont make bad rulings?
There are activists on both sides.

If you want America back then vote moderate.

Thread Subtopic:

Is it better to have judges "re-elected" IE voted for after a term?

OR

Is it better to have them appointed by elected officials until they retire?

Both have their pro/cons I'm curious what you guys think.

What would that accomplish?  The judge is reported to be a right wing christian convservative Republican.  Sounds to me, your idea would just put a bunch of these like minded idiots on the bench.

Ya know how? Ya stop appointing them.

The Republicans have held the White House for 17 of the last 25 years, and their appointees dominate most all of the circuit courts.

As if it needs repeating; they control the White House, the Senate, The Congress, and the Judiciary.

This cry of "liberal judicial activism" is nothing more than another myth, unsubstantiated by any evidence, and propagated to further the goal of the complete capitulation of any dissent. They have been getting virtually all of their judges appointed, and are set to reload the Supreme Court with Antonin Scalia running the show.

So what exactly is your problem?

Oh woe is me. Repeat ad nauseam. Again - five of the last seven administrations? Republican.  Your constant victimization whine is wearing thin and doesn't stand up to even the laziest bit of scrutiny.

He is Republican...can't say how conservative he is other than opinion based on this ruling, which is pretty damn conservative.

Search for his name...he's on the election roles:

"Activist judge," as a term, is a construct of the right wing. It did not evolve from the left. It was created by the right in order to attack those in the judiciary that don't see things their way. It's that simple.

The problem is that most in the judiciary are conservative appointees. Even the Schiavo case - over which this recent spat over the judiciary arose - was handled by a majority of conservative judges.

There is a segment of the population that are less concerned by case by case examples of what they would consider to be activism, than they are about installing a judiciary that will do its absolute bidding, without exception. Nothing more and certainly nothing less.
