Fact is, the US judicial system is the most fucked up system in the whole of the western world and a laughing stock (tho they sure ain't laughing too loud - it's too sad) of international jurists.

That is not to say there are numerous excellent jurists within the system - simply the system stinks.

You ever wondered why there are not that many US jurists on benches outside the US? It's not by accident.
