Justice Ruth Buzzy told a South African audience that right wing, nut cases had threaten to kill her Justice O'Connor last year.

Probably not the first time someone has wanted to off a Supreme Court Justice. They have such a sterling record: Marvbury v. Madison, Dredd Scott, Roe v. Wade, Kelo v. New London.

However, blowing away one of these nimrods does not promote liberty or justice or anything else. It just makes whoever does something like that a murderer. Regardless the political motivation, assassination is not the way to go.

Now the reason for this current attack, according to Ruth, is because she and Justice O'Connor used foreign laws to determine some cases.

Gee whiz, is it any reason a few people are torqued off about that? Do we study the French for military strategy? Do we look to the Russians for lessons in democracy? Do we check out the Chinese for models in civil liberties?

I hope not, but maybe these bimbos are doing just that. The Supreme Court is an American court. It is supposed to adjudicating American laws.

There is a way to get rid of these people. IMPEACH THEM! Of course this would require the gutless wonders in the House and Senate to earn their money. And any impeachment of Ruth Buzzy would polarize into a nasty political battle.
