Apparently enforcing a trademark ruling by a higher court is making a political decision to the Good Senator Box Turtle.

Hale’s going to prison for a long time.

Or maybe Senator Cornyn (R-Box Turtleville) would argue the poor, poor boy was entrapped.

And if this guy was upset about med mal limits, the judiciary isn’t the one pushing further limits so he must have misplaced ‘frustration.

And you know, what kind of judge tries a man for rape?

At some point attacking courts as a convenient target has a toxic effect of decreasing trust—a trust that is generally well deserved in the federal court system. But also a trust absolutely essential to the well working of a society. Just because you don’t always win doesn’t mean the Courts aren’t doing their job.

However, if the Republicans think this crowd is the way to win elections–go ahead. I’m not stepping in the way of a party trying to jump off a cliff.

  1. So…

    The keynote speakers include an attorney now best known for losing a case, a former Chief Justice best known for losing his job (though they left out the “former”), and Alan Keyes who is best known for losing five elections over a period of sixteen years. I don’t know much about Lamar Smith, but he does appear to be a current Congressman, so sadly he might be the most successful keynote speaker.
