Seattle Times - Although it comes at a time of intense partisan bickering, President Bush's nomination of UW law school alumnus King County Superior Court Judge Richard Jones ('75) to the federal bench is winning widespread praise from local Democrats and Republicans involved in the selection process.
Jones' nomination last week for U.S. District Court judge was overshadowed by the national controversy over the Bush administration's firing of eight U.S. attorneys.
Law professor Craig Allen was on the selection panel.

I accuse King County Superior Court Judge Richard A. Jones of violating the Washington State Code of Judicial Conduct by manifesting from the bench during Court proceedings bias and prejudice against people who suffer from the neuro-biological condition known as Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder.
History teaches us that when particular groups of people in a society are marginalized as a pretext for taking away their civil liberties, that society is well on the way on the slippery slope toward tyranny.
As a jew, I find Judge Jones' courtroom conduct especially odious, and strenuously object to his nomination by President Bush to a federal judgeship.
