How arrogantly beautiful is this; ‘since we have a majority, let’s create rules that require a majority vote. That’s only fair!!?’
That’s what our conservative activist majority of Justices in the State Supreme Court want to do to keep controversial discussions “private.”
jsonline: A state Supreme Court justice wants to make it easier to keep some of the often-fractious court's discussions private. Wisconsin's Supreme Court in 1999 started holding public meetings on virtually all of its administrative matters. Chief Justice Shirley Abrahamson proposed the court hold all of its proceedings, including deliberations on cases, in public. Abrahamson made a series of proposals that she said could improve civility on the court. The court rejected the idea in September.
Now, Justice Patience Roggensack wants to roll back the court's policy so that many issues are discussed in public only if a majority of the court votes to do so.
How convenient.
Roggensack's proposal … All other administrative discussions would be held behind closed doors, unless a majority of the court wanted to publicly talk about a particular issue.
Amazing.
