Dang it Jerry ! you through away a judgeship,think of the money you could make ,in a very short time ,you could have retired in a few years with millions,in cash.

First of all real Witchcraft/Wicca has nothing to do with satan. In fact true Witchcraft/Wicca does not even recognize satan as real so how can they worship something they do not even believe in? Second, what ever happened to freedom of religion?

This always irritated me when people automatically assume that Witchcraft/Wicca is devil worship when the devil is not even recognized. Satanism is the worship of the devil and has nothing to do with Witchcraft/Wicca.

People really need to educate themselves about stuff before the spout off about things they obviously no nothing about.

Serowbot , Are you saying that bill Clinton is smarter than GWB ?
So, given the smarts of both guys ,who made the best POTUS.

I got a call last night from a "survey service" about one of our state initiatives on the November ballot. About how supporting it will turn us into another California... The little girl got mad at me for answering honestly, that anything the steal and squander sector wants, I'm against. Apparently, supporting an initiatve to force the state to be fiscally responsible is a bad thing?

My wife is on Social Security, way ahead of the normal age, due to disability. Her check almost covers the mortgage on a 30 year old single wide (with 2 stick built add on rooms) and an acre of basically useless ground. For our house, Social Security IS the crutch it was intended to be. Sure can't live on it. I received a year of benefits and a lump sum pre-payment for the 3 years I spent off work injured. It amounted to 1 1/2 years of pay, better than a kick in the butt, but it still took years to pay off the bills.

I do get a good laugh over the typical American response to common European lifestyle choices, i.e. paganism, social and familial nudity, open homosexuality, living within your means, etc.

Your average career politician doesn't care about you, me or the corporate purse strings he's sold his soul to. Look good for the camera, steal as much from the public and private sector as you can, and get out of the limelight before you get caught. Play to the country's xenophobia while holding the backdoor open in order to get more kickbacks off the backs of illegals.

You want to really trip your mind out? Read the publication Nazi-Soci by Dr. Joseph Goebbels. There is an awful lot of the bilge spouted by both major US political ideologies in there...

"Sorry, Mick, but judge pay isn't all that high in the state court system.  Federal judges do quite well as their pay is the same as a senator's is.  Currently in the neighborhood of $160K per year."

Low pay eh? maybe that explains the almost universal corruption of local judges.

...and Jerry, you should stop defending GWB. It is unbecoming of someone of your intellect.

Lifter -

That remark about state court judge is insulting.  Read my post on the Tall Table - in 35 years of constant trial work and appearances before judges in several states, I've NEVER encountered one on the take.

Some may not be the brightest bulbs on the Christmas tree, but that's a whole different issue from being corrupt.

And I will defend most of GWB's presidency, except for invading Iraq when we should have gone into Iran.

Has Hopey Changey done any better in your view?  I see that his trusted ally, Emanuel, is jumping ship tomorrow, along with Sommers, who already left.  No senior economic adisor, no chief of staff has chosen to remain with him - says a lot, doesn't it?
