Georgia Supremes accused of being 'sham'

Sounds like it's my way or the highway in Georgia.

'An attorney working on a case challenging Barack Obama’s name on the Georgia 2012 presidential election ballot says the state’s “laws and courts are a sham” and protect the powerful against the powerless.
...
“This is worse than anarchy. With total anarchy everyone knows that the powerful rule. With anarchy everyone understands that the only rules are the rules that the powerful want to enforce, when the powerful want to enforce them. What we have in Georgia is a system of laws and courts that appear to be fair and claim to be impartial, but in reality the purpose of the laws and courts is to deceive the people into thinking that justice is possible. The laws and courts are a sham. The courts serve to disguise the one-sided enforcement of the law.”

He noted that the justices had the request for a week, but waited until there was no time to appeal to the U.S. Supreme Court on the issue of the injunction before releasing their order.

“If we had been given one or two days we could have filed an emergency motion with the U.S. Supreme Court. … I’m sure that the Georgia Supreme Court is aware that Justice [Clarence] Thomas would have been our next step, had we had time to file another motion. The Georgia court ensured that such review was not possible by waiting until the last day to rule before our motion became moot.”'
