It looks like the Republican legislature and Gov. Walker may have known all along how the state Supreme Court would rule on what appears to be a clear violation of the open meetings law. The courts conservative justices all came out gunning for Judge Sumi’s recent decision against the passage of the collective bargaining law.
Partisan conservative activist Justice Gableman couldn’t hide his already made up mind, with this amazingly dumb question.
“Where does it stop?” asked Supreme Court Justice Michael Gableman, “If the court prohibits the enhancement of an act … what about enjoining a senator from introducing legislation?” Gableman asked.
Really? A dumb question from someone who shouldn’t be asking dumb questions. The easy answer is; it stops at BREAKING THE LAW! Think about it, how would introducing legislation “break” the law. You'd have to try really hard to do that.
Justice Gableman was described in the article this way: “one justice expressed contempt for a lower court’s decision to intervene in the work of the Legislature.”
Contempt is a good word for Gableman's view of constitutional justice. Gableman is just a corporate yes man the industry wanted and paid for to sit on the Supreme Court bench, and they should be very happy. As for Republican voters, they are loving their activist conservative justices.
