An excellent limerick on contemporary real life issues. 'Freedom's voice can't be derogatory' - Oh yes, of course. I do concur.

I completely agree with your observations in this regard. Judiciary has taken a beating and it seems they are abdicating their powers to uphold constitutional propriety. You have rightly said 'judges are at once the aggrieved party and juries at the same time, a fundamental infirmity in any law' as in PB contempt case.
