Cornyn speaks, Freepsters rejoice
Although, to be fair, a number of the commenters here call out (mostly with the disappointment that this is bad politics, not reprehensible speech) John "Open Season" Cornyn for the idiocy he's promulgating:
Really, so reasonable. No? U.S.A!
UPDATE: An interesting thread from right after Conryn spoke, and before his judge-murder-justification riff was highlighted.
- “The unfortunate part of this is that I believe there is a kernel of truth in what Cornyn is saying. And it seems to me, at least, that some of the judicial decisions lately seem to be a contest to see who can invoke the most outrage, decision being Constitutional or not.”
- “There is definitely something to this. I will forever believe that had Janet Reno and others been held accountable for Waco (i.e., fired at a minimum), Oklahoma City would not have happened…If you want political violence, the best way to achieve it is through tyranny. And our elitist judges are are pouring fuel on the fires, with their decisions.”
- “As long as judges are held unaccountable for their actions by the system, these things will happen.”
- “When some members of the judiciary can be relied upon to rule in either incomprehensible or unjust ways, the public loses confidence in all of the members, and may even begin to think of judges as something other than human.”
Really, so reasonable. No? U.S.A!
