So we need the same strategy, we need young, aggressive judges to be appointed, and that's what the President has done, but getting them through is the challenge.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Judges must be free from political intervention or intimidation.
Judges are appointed often through the political process.
The president appoints the judges. Your lives and your children's lives can change by all of these appellate court judges who will be appointed who will reinterpret laws, and things can change.
But one way or another, judges perform a very vital function in our society. They have a risky job and they are entitled to security.
We want to let our play be the judges.
I do not think that we should select judges based on a particular philosophy as opposed to temperament, commitment to judicial neutrality and commitment to other more constant values as to which there is general consensus.
We may have lured judges into roaming at large in the constitutional field.
Judges need to restrict themselves to the proper resolution of the case before them. They need to avoid the temptation to set broad policy.
The liberals are fighting so hard whenever President Bush appoints any federal judges.
I wouldn't approach the issue of judging in the way the president does. Judges can't rely on what's in their heart. They don't determine the law. Congress makes the law. The job of a judge is to apply the law.
