Is that because he hired grads? Or did he just not follow the 3L hiring plan?

 Judge Goodwin's gotta go

We all need to kick Judge Goodwin off the bench for forcing a vaccine on our children that was NOT TESTED PROPERLY, BECAUSE THE FDA GRANTED A WAIVER TO THE COMPANY BAXTER THAT MAKES THE VACCINES. THE COMPANY BAXTER WAS GRANTED IMMUNITY FROM ANY LAWSUITS THAT COULD ARISE FROM EFFECTS OF THE VACCINE. THE VACCINES ARE PERMANENTLY HARMING ALMOST AS MANY PEOPLE AS THE FLU. GOOGLE THE H1N1 VACCINE INGREDIENTS AND ASK A DOCTOR ABOUT THEM, THE MEDIA DOES NOT KNOW WHATS BEST. THEY SAY WHAT THEY ARE TOLD TO SAY.
