BROWIERD....AGAIN V.2.0

If it wasn't for those wacky Judges North of the Border, dozens of bloggers would be out of work.

Courtesy of one of our favourite blogs, Bob Norman's The Daily Pulp, comes this scholarly and thoughtful email from Judge Joel Lazarus of the "proud and fighting 17th Judicial Circuit Robe Wearers Brigade", to all his troops and Judges. Lazarus is firing up his boyz and providing scintillating and learned commentary on immigration, religion, and the constitution.
(As the Captain points out, the email is an old one, but Bob Norman has it up on his Daily Pulp and the JAA blog had a link to it as well, so why should we be left out of the fun and frivolity just because we live in Dade?)

Pull up a chair and enjoy:


From: Judge Lazarus/17THCircuit
To: ALL JUDGES, ALL JAS

Subject: Three things to ponder....

1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments

COWS
Is it just me, or does anyone else find it amazing that during the mad cow epidemic our government could track a single cow, born in Candada almost three years ago, right to the stall she slept in the state of Washington? And, they tracked her calves to their stalls. But they are unable to locate 11 million illegal aliens wandering around our country. Maybe we should give each of them a cow.

THE CONSTITUTION

They keep talking about drafting a Constitution for Iraq. Why don't we just give them ours? It was written by a lot of really smart guys, it has worked for over 200 years, and we're not using it anymore.

The 10 COMMANDMENTS

The real reason that we can't have the Ten Commandments posted in a courthouse is this:
You cannot post "Thou Shalt Not Steal," "Thou Shalt Not Commit Adultery," and "Thou Shall Not Lie" in a building full of lawyers, judges, and politicians... It creates a hostile work environment.

Stay tuned, as Rumpole will respond.

Two things:

I noticed that the email from Lazarus was three years old.

That script:

1. Cows
2. The Constitution
3. The Ten Commandments

has been floating around the internet for years. Those are not his original writings.

Of course, if that is the way he feels about immigrants, he is not the first judge in Browierd to get in hot water over that issue.

Cap Out .....

"Of course, if that is the way he feels about immigrants, he is not the first judge in Browierd to get in hot water over that issue."

He writes not one word about "immigrants". He writes about "illegal aliens". Big difference, especially to nearly all of the legal immigrants I know.

God forbid that a judge would believe people should obey the law.
