Call me crazy, but I rather firmly believe that SCOTUS justices should be unimpeachably ethical. #RandomThoughts
@kel and have strict term limits
@pennyphilosophy I'm not on the term limits bandwagon, but if it's going to be a lifetime appointment, then they cannot even remotely partake in the remotest perception of f*ckery.
@kel @pennyphilosophy
I don't think it's possible to fully determine who is unimpeachably ethical. You're always rolling the dice a bit when appointing someone to such an impactful position, and lots of people put on a great dog and pony show in interviews / hearings. We might not know what nefarious dealings someone participated in until many years later.
This is *exactly* why we need term limits on every single elected and appointed government position.
@voltronic @kel agree, and ex officials must be barred from becoming lobbyists after terms end.
