Religious Right Goes After "Activist" Judges

Some people are very, very scary. It's not just activist judges that the religious right wants to go after now. It's any judge who doesn't believe that Biblical law should be elevated above the law of the state. When one of the speakers was asked what to do about activist judges, he said, "Here again I draw on the wisdom of Stalin. We're talking about the greatest political figure of the 20th century … He had a slogan, and it worked very well for him whenever he ran into difficulty. 'No man, no problem.'" That sounds pretty much like a call for the assassination of judges. Another person at the conference actually prayed for Judge Greer (the Florida judge in the Schiavo case) to be "delivered to Satan." Tom Delay's and John Cornyn's comments were downright peacenikky compared to these folks.
