“The district judge’s previously expressed views appear too entrenched to allow for the appearance of fairness on remand. For these reasons, we direct that the case be reassigned to a different judge for resentencing.”

I would love to see some documentation of what this quote is refering to…it sounds intriguing

The judge must be shocked by the ruling of his comrades on the 9th Circuit, LOL.

Today he is “The Loneliest Liberal.”

he was appointed to the bench by President Reagan

Yeah, well, so was Sandy O’Connor. Even Ronaldus Magnus made a mistake or two. Hopefully, President Palin will have a Senate Majority with ‘nads.

THIS is why I’m so angry at Bill Frist and the rest of the Senate Republicans for being such wusses! How many Bush judicial nominees never got an up-or-down vote because of Dem obstruction? “Nuclear Option”, my @$$! Don’t make empty threats! Get on with the work the Constitution specifies!
Aaargh!

Hey, I have an idea. Let’s invite, neigh, encourage, more immigration from these wonderful culturally enriching muslim countries. Come on, this poor misunderstood oppressed “combatant” was just trying to provide our dull boring western culture with a little pizazz. But our ridiculous laws that forbid killing innocent people got in the way. Obviously, a sarcasm tag is not needed. If we had any common sense, or even survival instinct left in us, we would ban all immigration from muslim countries immediately (even tourist visas). And any muslim already here who even acts suspicious would be thrown out. If that tee’s off the muslims, or offends the liberal PC idiots, too bad. I don’t care.

No admirer of the 9th (moonbat) Circuit am I, but according to Wiki, he was appointed to the bench by President Reagan.

Coughenhour spoke at George Soros’s Open Society Institute and shrugged off the prospect of Gitmo detainee releases as the “price we pay” for granting them the full panoply of constitutional rights in civilian trials.

His retort: “So be it.”

There are more like him in the judiciary, and you can bet the Gitmo detainees’ lawyers at Eric Holder’s old law firm, Covington and Burling, are court-shopping for them.

When these people kill more Americans, turds like Coughenhour should be frog marched to the grave sites, as were the cowardly German citizens living near WWII Nazi concentration camps. Put shovels in their hands and supervise them filling in the graves. “So be it.”

Selah. Consider the matter.

Ragspierre said: I recall the story of a Dist. Judge in Denver who was universally thought to be crackers. He could not be removed because he had done nothing in the “high crimes and misdemeanors” realm.

I recall a similar whacky judge in FL who was removed by the Judicial Qualifications Commission and upheld by the FL Supreme Court. Is there any universal standard for removing a justice?

Sounds to me like Coughenour should be going to jail.

In old Ireland they had a very civilized way of dealing with judges….judges were …responsible for their decisions. As in if a judge awarded damages to one party and it turned out that it was a wrong decision….the judge was responsible for the amount of damage…..and was reduced in rank…to many wrong decisions and he wasn’t a judge anymore. To bad that kind of reasoning got lost….judges now days seem to think they have no responsibility. When a judge lets a child rapist go…he in fact has some responsibility for the rape of the next victim, but modern law gives him a pass. This dolt has been saved from himself, he was not allowed to help this terrorist kill…..this is real life folks…no simple washing of the hands relieves responsibility

Wow… when the 9th circuit calls you out for being too liberal… that’s scary.

Judge John Cougher Mellencamp. Singing away court karaoke hits like… A.L. Q.U.E.D.A. in the U.S.A.

Who are they going to replace him with? Judge Larry Seidlin?
