A couple of posts ago I brought up the subject of the importance of the judiciary in our daily lives. Here is a further take on the subject by E.J. Dionne from today’s Washington post, discussing forces at play in the Kagen confirmation hearings. I’m cheered by his thoughts – maybe we, the great unwashed public, are finally realizing who the activist judges really are, and why they must be stopped. A cogent excerpt from E.J.’s column:
Yes, Republicans seemed to be admitting implicitly, it is conservatives who are now the judicial activists. That's why they moved on during last week's hearings to a new attack line against liberal jurists as being "results-oriented."
Let’s keep the heat on.
