    It allows them to rule on cases based only on what they legitimately believe to be the correct decision.

    I wish I was this blissfully ignorant.

          That’s pretty bad. But It’s also not proof he said that. The law clerk could’ve just hated him for some reason. I don’t like to trust these types of accusations, since they’re so easy to make.

          But still, it’s best for the supreme court to be permanent, in order for there to be as little political influence on the justices as possible after their appointment. And I would say the same thing even if the parties were reversed.

            Yeah we’re to the point of me providing sources and you saying they aren’t good enough while providing none of your own. I’m done here. I admire your ability to both-sides a clearly lopsided issue. I hope someday the world is as beautiful and pure as you think it is.

              I’m not saying I like him. But I just don’t see a better system for the supreme court. If you have any ideas for how the supreme court system could be better, I’d be happy to hear it.
