God Loses Bid for Bench
Read Time:35 Second
Four Christian lawyers who vowed to be God’s ambassadors on the bench have lost their bids to oust four San Diego Superior Court judges.
With 100 percent of precincts reporting early Wednesday, incumbent judges Lantz Lewis, Joel Wohlfeil, Robert Longstreth and DeAnn Salcido handily beat the conservative attorneys.
Craig Candelore, Larry “Jake” Kincaid, Bill Trask and Harold J. Coleman Jr. garnered no more than 35 to 40 percent of each race’s vote. They were backed by pastors, gun enthusiasts, and opponents of abortion and same-sex marriages.
Critics said the campaign aimed to pack courts with judges who adhere to a religious agenda, threatening both the impartiality of the court system and the separation of church and state.

Remember when old Jerry Fartwell wanted all his Libety Univ graduates to get onto boards and work their way up the local food chains. We have got to be aware, so that these people never get close to any kind of power.
Now if God happened to be Jim Carrey I could go with it!!!
That’s excellent news. I did a post a few weeks ago about those four asshats, but I forgot to look for the results of that election. There were so many races to watch, that one fell off my radar.
As strongly as I believe in God, I firmly believe in a separation of Church and State. I’m glad those voters did, too.
God must have been out scoring some herb instead of helping his minions.
What a bunch of Neanderthals. Apparently they never learned in law school that jurisprudence is all about applying the the law to the facts, not the Bible and extreme right wing agendas to the facts. That pisses me off. The one thing I admire the law for the most is that it has tended, most of the time, to protect modernity from the over-reaching of religious premodernity.
You have to ditto TL here, don’t you?
Where ever did you catch this Mike?
That is 100% against what a Judge is! A Judge has to be totally impartial and ready to make decisions on the facts and evidence provided, not based on Religious Mumbo Jumbo…it will be the freaking Inquisition all over again!! ARRRRGH! These people are BLOODY FREAKS!!!!
