Just obey the law.....quit trying to destroy the nation

This is a good article.  Although I am fairly skeptical of the authors interpretation of Thurgood Marshall’s motivations, based on Marshalls’ later rulings following his elevation to the high court, I think that the focus is correct.  And, I can assure you….though Marshall was once considered a civil rights hero, and an icon of the left…..not one single leftard today will read this article and take away the lesson.

That lesson being to obey the damned law.

Imagine, a leftist TODAY, moving forward with the very first thing in their minds being OBEY THE LAW.  And, in keeping with the authors estimation of Marshalls’ motivations, that a leftist not only moved forward with the first notion on OBEYING THE LAW, but an understanding that the court would be a CO-EQUAL branch of the government…..how GREAT would that be?

Now, and this is just me talking, and I am no Constitutional scholar on the level of, say Kamala Harris, Dick Durbin or Richard Blumenthal, but here is how I think that the framers intended the three branches to act.  Each branch of government had their own power of “review” for that branchs’ actions.  I believe that when John Marshall pulled “Judicial Review” out of his ass, that was a massive power grab that the founders never foresaw.  Be that as it might, we are stuck with about two hundred years of precedent on this, so what can you do?  (BTW….I am not a liberal, I don’t merely THINK that, but believe that through a number of years of study and more than a passing familiarity with the “Federalist Papers”……which, remarkably enough, is still in print in the unabridged version….if you are interested).

Here is the thing, and I think that the left would agree with me at night, lying in the dark of their bedrooms, sucking their thumbs.  People always say, as some sort of defense of the democrats, that the right always picks judges that agree with their ideology, and the left does the same thing, so there is no difference.  But that is a lie, and it is easy to understand the transference of the left on the issue; the left ALWAYS attributes their motivations to others as a way of justifying their own behavior.  The right tends to select judges that enforce the law and interpret it according to the Constitution; the left choses judges that will legislate, or MAKE law, and circumvent the unpleasantness of congressional debate and ultimately save the left from having to own their policies, whom many of their constituents do not want.  It is FOOLISH to think that every liberal supports abortion up to the baby’s first breath.  It is FOOLISH to think that all liberal parents of five year old girls want their daughters in the bathroom with boys.  It is FOOLISH to think that all liberals are so stupid as to buy into the lefts current multi-gender push, or global warming, or college for all, or healthcare on the tax payers dime.  There are, statistically, too many liberals for them to all be retarded……we would notice when we see them in public.  And it would be foolish to think that, if given a chance to vote on those (and other) issues, every liberal would support a candidate who embraces them (though the left has a horrible reputation as single issue voters…..it just depends on the issue at the time).  Dick Durbin didn’t really reveal a secret truth when he advocated sacrificing a few congressional seats in order to focus on getting the SCOTUS pick the left wanted; the left views the court as an extension of its’ participation in the senate and the house.  What they cannot get done through legal means, they will get done through a court packed with, not constitutional judges, but liberal, America last, everything goes, judges.

It is no secret.

Thurgood Marshall WAS right, whether or not he was telling the truth.  The way we have allowed our system to morph, ALL of the states and their people must be subject to the results of judicial review and the high court rulings.  And the left knows and promotes that.  It is far easier to get a judge for life than a senator with America’s best interest at heart, and the left knows that.  If the left had the court it wanted, it would NEVER need a majority in congress.

If the left promoted obeying the law and the Constitution, the senate would never, ever need to have more than an introduction to a nominee, and how that nominee would judge would not be a question; the courts interests, and the lefts interests, and the good of the nation, would all be aligned.

If the left obeyed the law.
