The Judiciary - Last Bastion for the left
Since the Democrats cannot win elections, the courts have become their last option to get their laws passed! Never mind that the courts were never set up to make laws - only to interpret the Constitutionality of the laws that Congress passes.
I will admit - I am no lawyer or Constitutional "expert". I am simply a guy with some common sense and the ability to read and understand. But, I find it disconcerting that the major questions still facing the courts today are "rulings" by the courts rather than LAWS passed by any legislative body - abortion, separation of church/state, takings, etc.! Think about it, folks!!!
Take "reproductive rights" for example. No "law" was passed for the Supreme Court to interpret - no, this "ruling", as with all other "rulings" that cannot be Constitutionally interpeted, was the result of a lawsuit! This allows judges to "rule" as THEY think the Constitution should read rather than what it actually says!
Democrats tell us that they want a court that represents "main-stream" American thinking, yet, every survey or "poll" consistently show that "main-stream" American is, largely, opposed to the liberal Democratic positions. If liberal Democrats truley believed that most Americans support their position on abortions, why not put forth an amendment to the Constitution to legalize it? That way "main-stream" America could either approve or disapprove the measure. Why not?? Because the liberals KNOW that "main-stream" would never approve such an amendment therefore they must USE the court to "rule" a law or right into existence!
We are now faced with the need to appoint a new Supreme Court judge - and the fight by the lib Democrats has begun!! And, trust me folks, it is going to get vicious and down-right hatefilled. These lib Democrats, who profess to work to insure individual freedom and thought and religious prefrence, are attacking the current nominee using these very issues as means of attack!!!
Liberals tell us that a person's religion should not make a difference, they "question" whether justice nominee John Rogers can overcome his Catholic teachings against abortion should the Supreme Court revisit Roe v Wade. Call me stupid, but I take this as applying a religious standard - Catholics need NOT apply!
Liberal Democrats also profess that the courts should be non-biased (an impossible human condition), non-partisian, and not pre-judge. They will tell you that all cases before any court should be judged on the evidence and information presented to the judge(s) and the judge(s) should review, completely, all information present BEFORE making their decision. Yet, the liberal Democrats want to know NOW how Rogers will rule should the Court revist Roe v Wade at some time in the future.
So, as you watch this confirmation process play out, keep in mind that is imperative that the libs hold on to the courts as this is the ONLY way they can preserve and further their agenda.
But, also keep in mind that, in order to maintain your rights under the Constitution, it is imperative that the courts return to interpeting the Constitution rather than making law.

I am with you when you deplore the lack of judgement by our so-called leaders. But what appals me is that they give no credit to the masses for having any judgement at all other than what is delivered to them as truth.
