Let me make sure I understand this correctly. They are going to spend $500,000 trying to convince the Colorado electorate that that the committees on judicial performance and judicial grievances are not corrupt and self-serving? Why? It should be self-evident. By their very actions in supporting these organizations with exorbitant amounts of money; they defeat their very purpose of claiming we should trust them. They forget that the general public now has a method to dissect their propaganda; the Internet. What lawyer in his right mind would proclaim "The king has no clothes" in any judicial survey or complaint? It begs the question, "Why aren't these surveys and complaints held in public venues where everyone can voice their opinion?" The answer is quite simple; the activist judges would undoubtedly be removed from the bench. This should be very entertaining watching the "kings subjects" try and pull this off to a public that is finally fed up with their basic Constitutional rights being trashed by these guys each and every day. Their actions raise another question; Would an adversarial attorney who tries a case against members of this group be justified in asking a judge to recuse himself/herself because of the semblance of bias?
