Impeach Richard Posner

This man is retired… yay!

I’d remove this page but am clueless in how that’s done. Boo!

He's out! He resigned in September 2017 and has published a book about reforming the federal judiciary. To his credit, one point that frustrated him deeply was the way the courts treated "pro se" practitioners. In other words, those people who represented themselves before the federal courts. So...even a blind hog roots up an acorn once in a while!

Richard Posner announces sudden retirement from federal appeals court in Chicago Judge Richard Posner, one of the nation's leading appellate judges whose acerbic wit attracted an almost cultlike following within legal circles, is retiring.

The Provocative Life of Judge Richard Posner William Domnarski’s biography of the unconventionally opinionated Judge Richard Posner.

Eighteenth-century guys, however smart, could not foresee the culture, technology, etc., of the 21st century. Which means that the original Constitution, the Bill of Rights, and the post–Civil War amendments (including the 14th), do not speak to today."
- These are the words of 7th District Court of Appeals Judge, Richard Posner and these words disqualify him or any other Judge from their oath. He is damning the very document that grants him legitimacy. He should be impeached by the US Senate, as allowed under the US Constitution that too many Senators ignore too.
