Isn't a crony someone who is unethical or outright criminal?

Regardless, I didn't see anything in the following text of your post that supported the point that cronies shouldn't be supreme court justices. I can't even believe that's a serious comment after I just typed that out...anyway, you did support the last statement you made: that being a judge shouldn't disqualify someone, which I agree with on that point.
