Why I f****** hate conservatives

You know, I think I get what Ron Paul is doing. He doesn't really stand a snowball's chance in hell of winning the presidency unless something drastically changes in the next few months. But he is bringing some very key issues to the forefront and he's using this as his platform. To that, I say thank god someone has the guts and integrity. He's making some people question the status quo (except the die hard warhawks which seem to come in both Dem and Rep these days). And the GOP'ers will step in line as they always do and vote the R candidate whomever that is (Romney best bet). What will be interesting are the independents and libertarians in some key pivotal states will decide this election and since Florida and Ohio aren't doing better than they were 4 years ago, and NC was on the line... my guess is those states go R.

Paul is a libertarian. The fact that he's campaigning under false colors running as a Republican strains his credibility and puts his character into question.

Fuck yeah

Lulu is correct. It's a two party system. Political parties must be changed from within. Paul will likely have enough delegates to have some input into the party platform and speak at the convention.

Well... actually even in the North, if you have a line that goes back a few hundred years, you start to realize that back in the day everybody was kin in one form or another. lol

So true. It's kind of hard to avoid when most people didn't travel more than maybe 50 miles from home in their entire life time.

Maybe as a door man directing people to their seats.

Thanks for fucking up my thread, assholes.

It was supposed to be so that they could remain impartial (not having to worry about the popularity of their decisions); however, in those days, those on the SCOTUS were not sellouts. It's time to ammend the constitution to create short terms for SC justices. Since the current justices are APPOINTED, not elected, they have no reason to fear the popularity of their decisions. Scalia is a prime example of why life terms for justices are a BAD idea.

The SCOTUS needs to have a process by where all justices are barred from having any affiliation with any political party for any reason. Justices who are owned by their party are nothing more than robed politicians and this is unacceptable.

What you propose will make the justices even more corrupt and subject to the whims of monied interests.

Most of the republican justices and a few of the demcrat justices are already as corrupt as it gets. My proposal mearly leaves us a way to get them the fuck out of there and replace them with non-owned justices. Also .. .the appointment committee needs to be somebody other than Congress. Congress is to owned and corrupted to be trusted with such matters.

Wat?

Vader wants to trash the Constitution. But wait until a ruling happens that he agrees with and he will suddenly change his mind.

No, I want to remove the the political parties from the supreme court and I want to make sure that the justices can be removed when they become useless robed politicans.

Since all SC justices are appointed by the President and the President happens to be a member of one political party or the other, what is your solution, appoint Communist or maybe an anarchist or two. We already have a member of the ACLU which was started by a sworn Communist.

Come on Vader quit laying in the weeds and come up with some plausible solutions instead of partisanship and worthless insults in each and every one of your posts.

Just because you dislike the idea of having a politics-free SC doesn't change my views.

The corruption on the SCOTUS exists because of the political parties and their servitude to various special interests (Scallia and big tobacco is one good example; Alito and big business is another).

Moreover, at the time of the framing of the constitution, the forefathers never intended politics and political servitude to change the course of justice or legislation. That came later when assholes like Rockafeller and his robber baron buddies got involved.

It's time to remove politics from the SCOTUS. It MUST be completely NEUTRAL or will never make a fair decision.

[Cyclone Ranger]

lol, ending judicial independence and lifetime appointments - actually, the justices only serve during 'good behavior' according to the COTUS - will in no way make the high court "politics-free."

Then we should start with TFO's appointees, shouldn't we?

How do you make it completely neutral and please point out some of those unfair decisions made in the last 100 years?
