Judge Marshall Appears to Suffer
from Stress
Agrees That a Vote on Her Removal Is Required
      Judge Margaret Marshall appears to be suffering from stress as a result of the public backlash against her because of her illegal rulings in the "gay marriage" case.
       She foolishly agreed, in an article in the Boston Herald on Sunday, that there must be a vote by the Reps about her "Removal" from the Court.
       The legislators must now decide whether it was "good behavior" on her part when she assured the lesbian attorney, Mary Bonauto, that she would win if she brought the case in the Massachusetts courts. Everyone knows that that is the worst behavior possible; to have a judge assure a lawyer she will win a case - especially before the case has even been filed.
       The three other judges who conspired with her, Judges Greaney, Ireland and Cowin have also been charged.
       This is not the first indication we have received about stress on Justice Marshall. Two extreme feminist legislators were heard saying in the State House last week that she was becoming "very nervous" about her pending Removal.
Marshall Looks to John Adams, the Genius behind "Removal"

       In her piece in which she sought to bolster the case against her "Removal," Judge Marshall referred continually to the genius of the man who wrote the section of the state Constitution under which she will be "tried," John Adams. She said: "Under Adams' revolutionary scheme, judges would serve . 'as long as they behaved themselves well.'"
       However, she never mentioned that Adams also inserted into the state Constitution in 1780 the procedure to be followed where a judge is not behaving well. In that case, a vote will be held by the Legislature, as is now happening to her.
       Marshall ended with this quote: "On this Independence Day, we can best honor and preserve our heritage by keeping faith with the greatest principles of our democracy set out by our own John Adams."
       And that's exactly what Rep. Goguen (D-Fitchburg) plans to do to. Justice Marshall and her three compatriots will have a "trial," as decreed by John Adams as to whether they have "behaved" well.
       The saddest part of Marshall's statement was where she said that our "basic liberties" are to be "secured" by a judicial branch with free and impartial judges. But it's evident to all we won't have that as long as Margaret Marshall is in charge. We all witnessed how the legislature broke the law in 2002 and refused to vote on the "Protection of Marriage Amendment." We watched as Marshall held they had violated the Constitution, but there was nothing she could do about it. She didn't say that if she had allowed that Amendment to become law, she would have been forbidden from imposing her "gay marriage" upon this state.
