I'm sorry but there's no other way to say that, and I'm surprised the Gazette ran the editorial cartoon with the label “leftist judges” on the skeet shooter [opinion page, April 14].  This follows the latest ruling against Trump by SCOTUS 9-0. Many of the judges on these cases were appointed by Reagan, Trump himself and others as well as by Democrats. Back in the day would you have printed a cartoon supporting the idea that rogue gunners were firing at innocent Japanese fighters? Or that on the day of integration of Birmingham schools the children arrived with their gang of federal troops? The judiciary is under siege not the idea of executive orders, those are everywhere, everyday.
