"The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by menacing it with an endless series of hobgoblins, all of them imaginary." ~ H.L. Mencken
Supreme Court Won't Revive Lawsuit against Disgraced Ex-Detroit Judge
“The Supreme Court has put an end to a civil lawsuit against a former Detroit judge who had an affair with a woman while he presided over her bid for child support ... the courts dismissed the suit because judges are immune from lawsuits stemming from their judicial actions.” Supreme injustice.

Laws are for peons, not the ruling class.
Oh, sorry, I forgot that this privilege is supposed to buy judicial "impartiality". Our judges are all impartial, aren't they?
Paul:
"...'Our' judges are all impartial, aren't they?..."
Don't know how many "judges" you have, Paul. I have One -- Who is Impartial as I understand it. I haven't been "judged" yet as far as I can tell. I should be in a position to tell you more indisputably in 30 years or so.
Or so I'm told. I don't know that for certain. I'm a skeptic when it comes to religious and/or "scientific" proclamations.
I had a judge once. He diagnosed me as "pathological nonconformist" (as he sentenced me to 30 days in jail for drunk & disorderly, the rat). Later he asked me to be his AA sponsor. I did that until he died several years ago now. We often laughed that I never asked him to retract his sentencing statement -- I think he stood solidly behind it until the end.
What comes around, goes around.
