Stacking The Courts, Losing Reality

AT FIRST I THOUGHT the "Judicial Watch" publication/organization, as the name implies, existed for the purpose of monitoring and scrutinizing America's judicial system, presumably as a citizen safeguard against corruption, and in defense of the sacred concept of equal justice under law. Aa contraire. Belatedly, it dawned on me that this noble and lofty purpose had nothing at all to do with Judicial Watch. The actual purpose, I finally discerned, is to help facilitate the appointment and election of conservative magistrates, at all levels. By what set of criteria is conservatism a requisite for appointment to a judgeship? Should it even matter whether a potential judicial nominee or candidate is conservative or liberal in his or her personal ideology? No, it shouldn't. What should matter, the only thing that should matter, is whether a person is qualified, competent to render equal justice under law. Judicial Watch has spent far more time and money trying to incriminate Hillary Clinton than in monitoring and encouraging the practice of justice in America, sadly. Now, the group is engaged in the dubious endeavor of warning the country that a "deep state", consisting of federal employees, democrats, the left wing news media, and perhaps others hidden parties is organized and dedicated to bringing down the Trump presidency. As proof, they cite the very existence of the Muller investigations as a sort of secret coup. Alas, Judicial Watch is nothing but another is a growing tiresome list of right wing groups which, having lost all hold on reality, are desperately trying to protect the country from the forces of progressive change. A challenge to Judicial Watch: find and identify for us all one person, a single member of the "Deep State". Anyone, anywhere. It'll never happen.
