No surprise we have so many activist judges
Take a look at this little survey of where law professors are sending their political contributions.
Law professors at Harvard, Chicago, the University of Michigan and Stanford have given 100 percent of their 2008 election contributions to Democratic candidates. Furthermore, an overview of 17 top law schools shows faculty members have given 95 percent of their political contributions — more than $1 million — to Sen. Barack Obama.
Kelly Shackelford, chief counsel for the Liberty Legal Institute, said it’s no coincidence that law schools are producing a growing number of liberal, activist judges.
“(Elite schools) definitely have an agenda,” he told Family News in Focus. “It’s a Left-wing agenda — versus having judges who would be on the court and respect the rule of law (and) would restrain themselves.â€
Another reminder that the election, at the zenith of important issues, is about courts and judges.

Reason number one to elect McCain, followed closely by national security. On just about every domestic issue we will somehow muddle through if Obama is elected. But the issue of judicial selections is key. And in a time of crisis I want McCain staring down the enemy. Obama might not even be able to tell who the enemy is, much less craft a determined response. The feeling many have is that Obama does not even have a clue.
