  1. This one eyed bandit needs to stop fooling people and actually make some decisions that matter. He's been all bark and no bite so far.

  2. This one eyed bandit has been fooling the public by making public statements but I have yet to see him make some tough decisions and hold anybody accountable. He's losing credibility.

  3. The instability which the nation faces today is only due to this poker faced person. He should first revisit some school of law and then talk about law. I don't consider him fit for a magistrate of a lower court.
