Des Moines Register's Editorial Board Serves Up More Red Herring

From the Register's Editorial Bored ("Iowa's judge-picking process is on trial"):

Iowa's court system suffered a grievous blow with the removal of three members of the Iowa Supreme Court in the November judicial retention election. That apparently was not the end of it, however. Iowa's judicial-selection process is now under assault from critics who contend it is politically unbalanced and undemocratic. The process that's been in place for nearly a half century is itself now on trial, and it is not farfetched to worry that it, too, could be removed.

Instead, the Justices on the Register's Editorial Board want the Commission to publicly interview the candidates and have videos online.

What a red herring.

I find it the height of hubris that the Register wants to ignore that the current Commission is made up of 86% Democrats.  What is fair about that?  I bet the Register's Editorial Board members are upset that the Commission can't be made up of 100% Democrats, just like their little clique!

It doesn't help that the Register's indoctrinated "reporter" drones like Grant Schulte try to conceal this fact while The People, or at least those commenting on the Register's ongoing stories about this issue, smell a rotten fish when it's being dished up.
