The Role of Judges - It's Judge Week!

It's Judge Week on The Political Orphanage!  Where we learn the actual fault lines between judicial theories, and possibly even what "jurisprudence" means. This week we'll hear from preeminent progressive, conservative, and libertarian legal scholars about what actually happens behind the gavel. 

In this kickoff episode we talk about:

* The role of judges

* Why it's usually stupid to say  "conservative judge" or "progressive judge" 

* What jurisprudence is

* What precedent is
