Re: Conyers is my hero said by jc100:The Court these days worries too much about politics and partisanism and too little about the issues. Soon after Justice Douglas's appointment in 1939, Chief Justice Hughes gave the newcomer some surprising advice:
"You must remember one thing. At the constitutional level where we work, ninety percent of any decision is emotional. The rational part of us supplies the reasons for supporting our own predilections." Mason, William O. Douglas: A Justice for All, Wash. Post (Book World), Nov. 2, 1980, at 1, col. 1.

And he said basically the same thing - that most judges make a decision that they personally consider fair, and then look for legal precedent to back their personal decision. They don't enforce the law - they make it up as they go along. And there are so MANY conflicting laws and regulations that they can usually find something to back their personal decisions.
