What next? Judicial Term Limits!

I would have to say first, that with Terri, the laws were already in place to save her life. What killed her was the wanton arrogant disregard for those laws, by the malicious and spiteful Judge Greer, followed by the repeated rubber stamping by every mentally and spiritually lazy judge over him that should have reined him in.

So. My first proposal, and I am composing letters to all my senators and representatives concerning this, is term limits for all federal judges, to be followed by all state and county judges. Many of us had already believed the courts have been way out of control shoving abortion down our throughts for the last 32 years. That's "Democracy"?? B*S*.

In Terri's case, nobody expected a sworn judge to so brazenly break the law, and then call his own illegal rulings "law". No food or water by mouth, for God's sake? So the Governor and President just didn't know what to do with him, and jointly let his evil stand. Frankly, they should have known what to do, but that's why we already have term limits for Presidents and most (if not all) Governors. They will be gone soon enough (actually not soon enough for me).

What we witnessed here were multiple people in lifetime appointments having completely lost sight of their humanity. Cold calculating "Law". No mercy, no compassion. I had always believed the "Law" was to serve mankind, not mankind to serve the "Law". So "Law" has been elevated to the level of diety, and that's idolatry.

Because the stone heartedness of so many upper level judges was exposed in this, it is plain to me that no person who holds a lifetime appointment in a position of "God of the Three Branches of Government", can long retain sight of his own humanity, can long retain his soul. Power corrupts, and absolute power corrupts absolutely.

I would really like to see a huge national push for term limits for judges, including limits on perpetually re-electing county probate magistrates who have their fingers in lots of pots and owing lots of favors.
