Some Super Liberal Judges seem to be bypassing the Constitution and/or ignoring the will of the people. We have seen this in Arizona, where the three judges from the 9th Circuit Court overruled Arizona's Law that required citizens to provide proof of citizenship when registering to vote. In Oklahoma, the voters recently voted in by 70% a law to proactively ban the use of any International Law, including Sharia Law within their state only to have it put on hold while the court weighs in on it at the request of CAIR. Now, three judges within the state of Iowa, who recently overruled the vote of their citizens regarding homosexual marriage, have been voted out of office!

Translation: These court cases had outcomes I disagree with so therefore the Judge's legal reasoning was flawed.

Not my desired outcome = "out of control"......My desired outcome = "good legal basis"......lol

Yep

A prime example of how to shoot the messenger.

Or, the votes of the people had outcomes that the Left Wing Judges didn't agree with politically so therefore they were overruled! It happens, you know.

I wish some of you CONSTITUTIONDECARATIONFOUNDINGFATHERS minded folks would do some research. Perhaps then you would learn that the judiciary is meant to be an independent check on the capricious Will of the People™. Subverting the judiciary to popular opinion totally defeats the purpose.

And you have no earthly clue that only legal arguments should determine a ruling and not political concerns.

But this is all part of being ignorant to how the legislative and judicial branches work in entirely different ways.

You are just fine with putting the Constitution up for majority vote as long as it will result in an outcome you agree with.

Then of course you'll whine about how much you respect the Constitution when it serves your purpose.

Now, if there was only a way to get rid of Judge Anthony S. Borwick and Judge Jack Delman.

"A judge is not the court."

"FRAUD UPON THE COURT" AND "DISQUALIFICATION OF JUDGES"

If you take the case of Iowa, what evidence have you that the justices were left wing? I think this is more a case of special interest groups trying to put political pressure on judges not to be impartial.

Did you even read the link? Do you not agree with the question regarding no Constitutional Basis for not requiring proof of citizenship to vote? These judges are the ones who seem to be ruling with political biases, which of course as you point out should not be done.

But judges are not supposed to be swayed by "special interest" groups. Judges are supposed to be impartial.
