It is alleged, because of the Supreme Court’s January 21 decision, that the present court is violating the tradition of the Court as it pertains to “reverence” for stare decisis. Those who criticize the court for going against precedent are placing stare decisis as an end in and of itself, rather than justice or constitutionality.
One of the holiest scriptures of the totalitarian religion of liberalism is the legal aphorism, “evolving standards of decency.” For decades progressives, Democrat legislators, activist judges and humanist law academics have proclaimed their spiritual devotion to this sacred verse of the so-called “Living Constitution” doctrine. That ubiquitous phrase sounds so clinical, so egalitarian, so nice and caring, which belies its surreptitious meaning and evil intent in American law over the past 100 years.
Sotomayor has also repeatedly engaged in deception during her sworn testimony before the Senate this week, in misrepresenting her repeated racist and unethical statements. All the training in the world from David Axelrod, et al., couldn’t help her there. What has saved her, however, has been the cowardice of the Living Dead Party.
If it has been 61 years, it has been a day – 61 years since the Supreme Court of the United States enshrined into constitutional law and into society the judge-created doctrine “separation of church and state” in the landmark case McCollum v. Board of Education (1948). American law, politics, culture and society haven’t been the same since.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg, the second woman to sit on the high court has recently been admitted to the hospital as a precaution for early stages of pancreatic cancer treatment. This started a media frenzy of speculation about whom Obama would choose as his first appointment to the Supreme Court. Analyzing the media rumor about Ginsburg, conservative intellectual and radio host Michael Savage this week posted on his website an interesting article on Justice Ginsburg by Edward Whelar titled, “The Ginsburg Record and Standard.”
