Without notice or fanfare by the news media, multi-billionaire George Soros financed a $45 million campaign to reshape state supreme courts.

The first step in the Soros backed scheme is to keep conservative judges off the courts by taking judicial selection decisions away from American citizens and handing them over to “merit” boards stacked with legal special interests, according to a conservative political consultant.

The second step is to gag any conservative judge who happens to slip by with phony demands to recuse him/herself, claims Peter Schuyler, a former Senate staffer and college professor.

"In each instance, the goal is not to produce fairer, more accountable courts, but to impose the Left’s agenda on unwilling voters," said Schuyler.

Most Americans understand that the purpose of State Supreme Courts is not, and should not be, to advance political views or a social agenda. The purpose of appellate and high court is to insure that laws do not violate state constitutions or the U.S. Constitution, and that the law is applied as intended by the nation's Founding Fathers.
