--- Begin Message ----Caveat Lector- This is an incredibly ironic story which the media is to lazy or scared to properly research...A Federal judge dares to compare Bush's rise to Hilters' then a Bush cousin who is that judge's superior (and who happens to himself be the son of a major Hitler supporter) forces the judge to publicly apologize. "Judge Walker, who by coincidence is President Bush's cousin, did not suggest there would be any further action against Judge Calabresi." See: Walker-Hitler links below articles NY Times U.S. Judge Apologizes for Equating Victories of Bush and Hitler By JULIA PRESTON Published: June 25, 2004 A federal appeals court judge apologized "profusely" yesterday for remarks he made last weekend at a lawyers convention comparing President Bush's election in 2000 to the rise of Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini. In a letter to the court, Guido Calabresi, a judge on the Court of Appeals for the Second Circuit, acknowledged that he had given the impression he was taking a partisan position, opposing President Bush's re-election. The letter was addressed to John M. Walker Jr., the chief judge of the appeals court, who released it to the press. "In a way that occurred before but is rare in the United States, somebody came to power as a result of the illegitimate acts of a legitimate institution that had the right to put somebody in power," Judge Calabresi told an annual meeting of the American Constitution Society in Washington on Saturday, in remarks that were first reported by The New York Sun. "That is what the Supreme Court did in Bush v. Gore; it put somebody in power," he said, referring to the decision that cleared the way for Mr. Bush to claim victory in the election. "The reason I emphasize that is because that is exactly what happened when Mussolini was put in by the king of Italy," he said. "That is what happened when Hindenburg put Hitler in." Judge Calabresi qualified his comments, adding: "I am not suggesting for a moment that Bush is Hitler. I want to be clear on that, but it is a situation which is extremely unusual." The comments provoked a strong reaction this week among lawyers and judges. In a cover letter also released yesterday, Judge Walker said, "I am pleased that Judge Calabresi has promptly recognized that his remarks could too easily be taken as partisan and hence were inappropriate." Partisan political comments by judges are a violation of the code of judicial ethics. Judge Walker, who by coincidence is President Bush's cousin, did not suggest there would be any further action against Judge Calabresi. Judge Calabresi said that in his off-the-cuff remarks he was trying to make "a rather complicated academic argument," but he understood that they had been taken as an attack on President Bush. In a letter that contained no less than four apologies, he said he was "truly sorry" for "any embarrassment" he might have caused the appeals court. He did not, however, renounce the views he expressed. Judge Calabresi was appointed by President Bill Clinton in February 1994. Before that, he was dean of the Yale Law School. Judge Regrets Comparing Bush to Hitler Fri Jun 25, 2004 07:45 AM ET Printer Friendly | Email Article | Reprints | RSS Top News Iraq's Allawi Vows to Crush Rebels Sowing Violence Majority of Americans Now Call Iraq War a Mistake 'Destroyed' Lewinsky Speaks Out on Clinton Memoir MORE By Gail Appleson NEW YORK (Reuters) - A U.S. appeals judge on Thursday apologized for comparing the way President Bush took office after the disputed 2000 election to the rise of dictators such as Adolf Hitler and Benito Mussolini. Guido Calabresi, a judge on the Second Circuit Court of Appeals, sent a letter to his chief judge expressing "my profound regret" for the comments made at a legal conference in Washington on Saturday. Calabresi's remarks at an American Constitution Society Conference were reported by the New York Sun on Monday. "(Bush) came to power as a result of the illegitimate acts of a legitimate institution that had the right to put somebody in power. That is what the Supreme Court did in Bush versus Gore. It put somebody in power," the judge said. "The reason I emphasize that is because that is exactly what happened when Mussolini was put in by the king of Italy," Calabresi was quoted as saying. "The king of Italy had the right to put Mussolini in, though he had not won an election, and make him prime minister. That is what happened when Hindenburg put Hitler in." Calabresi told the lawyers that he was not suggesting "for a moment that Bush is Hitler. I want to be clear on that, but it is a situation which is extremely unusual." On Thursday, Calabresi apologized. "My remarks were extemporaneous and, in hindsight, reasonably could be -- and indeed have been -- understood to do something which I did not intend, that is, take a partisan position," Calabresi, who was appointed by former President Bill Clinton, said in a letter given to reporters. Calabresi's letter was addressed to John Walker Jr., chief judge of the circuit and a cousin to former President George H.W. Bush. Reporters were also given a memo Walker sent to other circuit judges informing them of the apology and urging them to be careful about comments that could be construed as political during an election year. In his letter, Calabresi said he believed judges should not publicly support political candidates and he had intended his comments as academic argument. Calabresi said he was "truly sorry" and that he was apologizing "profusely" for the episode.
