Interview with Indiana Chief Justice Randall Shepard

[Rhythm322]

Ohh a chief Justice that hasn't given much thought to the question of constitutionality. This is a guy who we let suggest our fate of local government? What a crock of $H!T

[Rhythm322]

Good Job, nice interview. I would have had him on the fence the entire time if it was me with zingers of follow up questions. Ya know, we almost need to create our very own news agency and really go after these Jack Asses.

go get em phil..

next time add some hip hop in the background so you can make them look like real Scuuuuuuuuum.

"I wanna go do fingerpaintings and kayak with my kids, I want to dance among the stars and sing the songs I want to sing. But I can't, I'm stuck here with Bermas."

Thanks for posting Phil, good interview, still amazed that he says not a good time to talk about the Constitution

[linuxlost]

He is correct saying where you sit determines where you stand. Unfortunately, he uses this to put the person(s) above the Constitution. This is a problem that leads to Aristocratic rule. Interesting that he further shows his Aristocratic tendencies in stating that the current system is to complex for citizens. Of course his solution is to simplify the process for us. Take away the local government & increase authority in executives removed from the people! Best simplification = one choice !?

Ok. That explains it. It's to much work, to hard for average joe voter to decide who to elect. I guess that's because we average citizens really doesn't have a very easy time figuring out how it all works or who's the best person to elect.

Good interview. After reviewing a few times, I think he really believed what he was saying. But, I definitely think that it is incorrect to say that we shouldn't focus on the Constitutional issues of our day during an election year -- that's exactly the time to be doing it, in my mind!

I get the smile from the Indiana Chief Justice in the end -- nice.

You must have been able to tone down some of the shakiness -- I thought there was more in retrospect.

Nicely done!

What Shakiness? ;)

[SELBIN8OR]

I suppose none. :) This is a better piece of art than most of the stuff in the new art gallery, I bet (e.g. a 1975 picture of Dennis Hopper with a cowboy hat is what my tax dollars are going for?!?) haha

Shakiness is better than sweaty hands SELBIN8OR.
