for a reception and appear in front of 500 people in a room speech, itpublic should be recorded and there s no good reason why we should had to cede to his request that it not be recorded. why did you? he wouldn t have come otherwise. on these remarks, it s self-evident that they are thatrent in the sense other than justice kagan, they ve come from one cloistered life to another. to the priesthood is through the federal appellate these institutions are bundled up so when they get to the supreme court, they don t range of professions and exposures in public life that other government people would have by the time they got high rung. you re saying they re different because they have super thin skin? not because no, it s because they re transparency is not a technical issue or a legal cultural issue. when transparency is a technical issue, it fails, it almost always fails. if you look at the president s open government agenda, when the president on day one was li ....
that s where you may see an agenda. my question really is, i know in the united eight we have places inre judges are elected. canada and israel, are there some judges and court systems where there is an election? are you kidding? i remember in judgment at nuremberg there is a scene where marlena dietrich is walking with spencer tracy. i love movies. oscar night for me is a religious night. she said, this is your country? i remember it was so odd the notion that you are directly responsive to the public for the decisions where you have to choose a side that may not be the one giving you the money. who do you go to for fund raising? i m not saying there are very good judges who are elected. theory ofg about the an election where you are directly responsible to the majority for decision-making. , ifou are doing sentencing you are doing constitutional rights, you are having to decide a minority versus a majority interest, and if you really like hearing a judge and you wan ....
