Irish Law Forum: One more strike against elected judges?
http://irishlawforum.blogspot.com/2011/07/one-more-strike-against-elected-judges.html
A blog featuring commentary about legal developments in Ireland and abroad. Law @ NUI Maynooth. Monday, July 11, 2011. One more strike against elected judges? Recently about John Waters' suggestion that Irish judges be elected by the public. In that post I pointed to evidence showing that an elected system yields judges who behave more like politicians than professional adjudicators. Now here's some more evidence via an article about Alabama judges - who are elected - via the NYT. 11/15 - 11/22 (1).

http://irishjournalist.blogspot.com/2009/01/planning-and-dealing-with-reporters.html
The blog of an Irish journalist. Tuesday, January 27, 2009. Planning and dealing with reporters. One other yarn I had last week was about the residents of Creighton Street. In Dublin agreeing to withdraw a planning objection for the tidy sum of 1.6m euro. Fair enough point I thought so I offered to meet him in person and show my credentials.
