Darn those willful judges and their love of rights

Yesterday those stinking activist judges -- or as McCain calls them, "willful judges" (presumably to be replaced one day by impartial robot tribunals) -- asserted the rights of Gitmo prisoners to a fair trial, like, you know, where you can actually challenge the charges against you and not be tried for the same crime twice and whatnot.

And only six years after the fact! What's the rush, Supreme Court? Did deciding the 2000 election take too much out of you? Did you need a nap after that or something?

Sometimes it just takes a while for the right case to come along. You know human rights activists didn't choose just any Gitmo case to bring to the Supreme Court, they wanted one they could win!

But seriously the whole constructionist judicial philosophy--what a bunch of poo pie!

I tell you, no matter how much you say "poo pie," it will not catch on.

Would not the antonym of "willful" in this context be "puppet"? Odd.
