“I don't believe we need a good conservative judge, and I don't believe we need a good liberal judge. I subscribe to the Justice Potter Stewart standard. He was a justice on the Supreme Court of the United States. And he said the mark of a good judge, good justice, is that when you're reading their decision, their opinion, you can't tell if it's written by a man or woman, a liberal or a conservative, a Muslim, a Jew or a Christian. You just know you're reading a good judicial decision.” IfsKnowsMenNeedsBelieveSaidStatesChristianReadingJusticeDecisionUnitedOpinionUnited StatesWrittenJudgingStandardsMarkCourtDon't BelieveConservativeJewSupremeSupreme CourtPottersJudicialGood Judges Author:John F.
