Court - Outrage from some continues in Iowa
This Dec. 24th story from Jennifer Jacobs of the DesMoines Register gives the picture:
Impeachment isn't the best route for getting rid of the four remaining Iowa Supreme Court justices who authored the gay marriage ruling - it's better that they resign, a conservative leader [Bob Vander Plaats, a GOP former candidate for governor] said Thursday. * * *Vander Plaats said the Condition of the Judiciary, the annual speech to the Iowa Legislature, is the perfect opportunity for the justices to announce they're stepping down. If they had been on the ballot for retention Nov. 2, they would have been voted off the bench, he said. * * *
Three representatives are drafting legislation to impeach the four justices.
