		<description>All this debate, and in some cases downright bickering about Sotomayor is getting disgusting.  Yes!  It is extremely important to appoint qualified judges to any bench, expecially the Supreme Court.  Right!  It is terrible to have a judge on any bench who feels that empathy, and a diverse background are more important qualifications than being unbiased and just.

However, if we had not established, in the last 100 years or so, this bogus principle of judicial precidence, and instead returned to the basis of determining all judgements based on legislative law, and its basis in God&#039;s Law \ natural law, we wouldn&#039;t have to worry about who gets appointed to the Supreme Court.  The only damage they could do is mess up a few individual court cases that they happen to preside over and hand down judgments for.

It is time that we the people begin to elect Executives who have a backbone, and a grounding in history, and Constitutional leadership.  The idea of Judicial Review has been so misconstrued in the past century that we now have an entire branch of government that is above the law, and no longer accountable to it, nor to the people!  It is time to start telling judges &quot;Thanks for your opinion, but you are wrong.  We are going to continue to apply this law as it was written by the legislature, unless the people tell us to change the law! &quot;</description>

		<description>I don&#039;t believe that it is a stretch.  We now have 23 &quot;czars&quot;, unelected and unconfirmed by the Senate.  Who&#039;s to say Obama won&#039;t appoint a &quot;Land Czar&quot;?

Imagine this:  1.  Farmer struggling to pay his note to the bank.  2.  Taxpayer money given to farmer to pay his creditor.  3.  Federal government now owns the land.  4.  Obama, or Land Czar,  fires the farmer.  5.  Federal government now redistributes the land.</description>
