BTW - recenlty I had an American client and we have talked a bit about USA. He told me that for 9 judges of the US Supreme Court 5 are catholics and 4 are Jews. Is it truth? My guess was that all judges are white and protestant so I was a bit astonished.

All accurate...to include Scalia a devout RC. Last Prot was JP Stevens (retired in 10).

More interesting, if ya into demographics, that is, is that C. Thomas is not something else considering he's black and from the south...a traditional conservative stronghold for Prots especially Baptists.

otoh he was raised by his maternal Gp's in Savannah which has always had a strong RC presence. For a short period he considered the priesthood and even attended an RC seminary.

Truth! Ruth Ginzberg and 3 others are jewish, and Clarence Thomas is African American.

The days of an entirely male WASP court were over long ago.

There are rumors here that Poland is returning to an old style Soviet type of Government, is this true?

Its the leftist propaganda. We just got conservative rightist goverment which said that there will be no muslim migrants admitted to Poland and which is no longer going to make policy according to German and French wishes. But most of European countries are being ruled by leftist goverments and they became mad that Poland is ruled by the goverment which is not going to support farther integration within European Union.
A friend of mine who is a migrant from Belgium and lives here already for 10 years says that we in Poland got far bigger freedom than this in his own country or in Holland (he is a Dutch speaking Flammand from Bruges) especialy the freedom of speech.

In the European parliament conservative minority fully supports Poland, while the leftist majority is trying to present Poland as no longer a democratic country.
