It's Well Past Time To Talk Turkey: The Rule Of Twenty-Four And The Rule Of One Hundred, David D. Butler

David D. Butler

The only question is who decides. The mob, the army, the people, the Congress, or the judges are not right because they are right, they are right because they are final. Lenin - the terrorist and not the pop star - said, "If a man says 'A.' he says 'B.'" If you celebrate Brown versus Board, you inevitably celebrate Dred Scott versus Sanford and Plessy versus Furgerson. This article argues that it it time, indeed, past time, for America to abandon lifetime federal judges and with them the poison of affirmative action and school busing.
