br> Newton Falls, Ohio /p> p> Why should ANYONE be surprised?!? Now federal judges even consider foreign opinion when they decide that 17-year-old murderers are too young to follow their victims to the grave. Of course, they only consider foreign opinion of "enlightened" countries. Some other countries actually execute murderers. Judicial tyranny has happened since the Warren Court in the 1960's. Roe v. Wade is the worst example: seven judges decide that the laws of 50 states are irrelevant and that they just "discovered" a new "right" in the Constitution that no one knew was there for almost 200 years. Amazing! That must be why they have lifetime tenure. They are THAT good. FYI, the Constitution says nothing at all about lifetime appointments of federal judges. Sorry, the term "justices" bothersome. In other words, Congress can pass a simple law that limits judges' terms of service. It's about time to do just that. br> -- David Shoup br> Dublin, Georgia /p> p> I'm spending a lot of time chronicling all this at Vote for Judges . Working for change beats complaining, don't you think? Sure would be nice to get a plug from someone at the mag. br> -- Karl Maher /p>
