Obnoxious judges

Bob Herbert has an editorial on the sort of judges Bush is submitting and it's bad … really bad. So bad that I can't just pick a piece to quote. In my opinion, the example he gives of Judge Carolyn Kuhl is bad enough that I'd like to see her disbarred, much less removed from consideration for the second highest court in the land. Herbert's conclusion is correct:

The fight over the most extreme of President Bush's judicial nominations is not a fight against his right to appoint conservatives to the bench. It's a fight to keep the courts within some kind of boundary that is reasonably close to the mainstream of American life.
