Judges Hull and Marcus were both appointed by WJC. That being said, Judge Hull is arguably the most conservative judge on the Eleventh Circuit; Judge Marcus is more moderate, but still quite conservative on law-and-order issues. It is significant, however, that all the BHO appointees (who participated) were in dissent. So your general point still stands.P.

Here we make them federal judges. http://www.bbc.com/news/world-middle-east-30074218Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
