http://www.dailykos....AG-bring-the-case "Chicago to my mind was the only place to be. ... I above all liked the city because it was filled with people all a-bustle, and the clatter of hooves and carriages, and with delivery wagons and drays and peddlers and the boom and clank of freight trains. And when those black clouds came sailing in from the west, pouring thunderstorms upon us so that you couldn't hear the cries or curses of humankind, I liked that best of all. Chicago could stand up to the worst God had to offer. I understood why it was built--a place for trade, of course, with railroads and ships and so on, but mostly to give all of us a magnitude of defiance that is not provided by one house on the plains. And the plains is where those storms come from." -- E.L. Doctorow |

Now this would be a red herring alert
just to be clear...
this is indeed troubling and the Judge should recuse himself. But lets be clear...the majority of AZ residents were IN FAVOR of 1070 and Obama had it gutted. The majority of people were against the healthcare bill...and Obama and Pelosi forced it through. Now a state had a majority (large) vote against key provisions and the administration plans to nullify that vote as unconstitutional. And your retort is that one AG out of some 30 may have a tie to the judge...so that makes all of this federal government ignoring of the will of the constituents all better. Yep. Screw the people. Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.

So basically
you're saying that the Obama Administration isn't governing by polls? Wasn't that supposed to be a good thing?

Only when it's the other guy
When it's his, he's a maverick!

According to who?
me? don't think you've seen me say that anywhere.
And that is another example of rationalizing with the excuse that "isn't that what they did?" .. Still, to stay on point, which this post pretty much was not...it is certainly ok to make an unpopular decision that needs to be made...in limited cases it could even be called leadership...when it becomes a consistent practice, though, more often than not its called dictatorship. Sure, understanding today's complex world of the future is a little like having bees live in your head. But...there they are.
