St. Louis Judge deemed "controversial" for anti-liberal book

In a time when free speech adoration is at an all-time high, one would think St. Louis Judge Robert H. Dierker Jr's new book "The Tyranny of Tolerance" would be raved about in judicial circles.

But no. . . it's being called "political suicide," "shocking," "controversial." 

From the book:

— "Just as we saw with the femifascists, illiberal liberals don't want equality; they want to make some people more equal than others. And they've made it happen through their dominance of the courts over the past seventy-five years. Liberals have converted the courts from the 'least dangerous' branch of government envisioned by the Founding Fathers to the most dangerous." (from a chapter titled "Making some Americans more equal than others" about the 14th Amendment and equal protection under the law)

— "This is liberal law in a nutshell. History and tradition count for nothing; the language of the Constitution itself counts for little; the only criterion is whether a ruling will advance the liberal agenda." (from the chapter "Ozzie and Harriet are dead" about abortion and the attack on the traditional family)

— " ...The Constitution died on April 18, 1990, as a direct result of the liberal pursuit of racial 'equality.'" (from the chapter "Taxation for Tolerance" about school desegregation and desegregation rulings that allow judges to impose taxes)

Dierker is scheduled to appear on Fox News Channel's "The O'Reilly Factor" this week.

Why would a sitting judge do such a thing? He just offered anyone who stands before his court and "loses" a ready-made appeal based on his now clearly stated biases and predispositions...

It's bad enough many states (including our own) "elect" judges to what should logically be a non-partisan office.
