more nutcases trying to over-turn our laws

From Americablog :

Members of Congress speaking at conference that says judges pose a "mortal danger"

by John in DC - 4/4/2005 11:32:00 PM Congress' anti-judge fervor grows by the hour.

Embattled Congressman Tom DeLay and conservative Senators Sam Brownback and Tom Coburn are scheduled to speak this week at a conference in Washington, DC that blasts "unbridled" judges as posing a "mortal danger", apparently to those who have the misfortunte of appearing in their courtroom.

On the conference's Web site, its organizer calls the Republican Baptist-faithed judge in the Terri Schiavo case "an activist Florida judge who, in effect, passed a death sentence on Terri Schiavo." The site criticizes "liberal judges" who "defy the will of the people" in order to "force their radical theories on the nation," and it also notes that these judges have apparently declared "war."

These people are truly insane! Very conservative judges who just happened to uphold the law (which, of course, is their job!) are being attacked! Apparently an "activist judge" is anyone who does or does not do anything that these people disagree with! Interesting that they are accusing the judges in the Schiavo case of "defy(ing) the will of the people" when a VAST majority agreed with the judges. Hopefully these wacko will be ignored because otherwise we really are in danger of becoming a theocracy. Very scary times!
