Let Truth & Justice Be Served - II


...and speaking of Truth and Justice being served - or not:

It's all moot anyway. Not only because by rights Ginsburg and Kagan should have recused themselves from the case and the vote - for having shown prior bias by having officiated at same-sex weddings - but when Justice is TRULY served in the nation, the Usurper in the office of the presidency will be removed from that thus-dishonored office; and all the legislation that he signed into law, and all the executive orders that he issued, and all the appointments that he made - including to the Supreme Court - will go with him, into the trash bin.

What's that, you say? Why is he a Usurper? Because according to the very same legal document that the SCOTUS is citing for this decision, he needed to have been/be a "natural born" citizen to run for it; and there is extensive historical evidence to indicate that one of the factors in the definition of that term, as intended by the constitutional Framers, is that the person needs to be born of two (in this case, U.S.) citizen parents - jus sanguinis, or 'of the blood,' in legal parlance. All it takes for Justice to be served is for the nation to return to the rule of law. That is: the Constitution.

You can't have it both ways, SCOTUS. Go by the Constitution. Or get off the pot.

At least a couple of the SCOTUS's closing rulings for this session seemed to be more about the rule of men than the rule of law.  It's like the majority have decided to play tennis with the net down.  As Antonin Scalia said, in one of his scathing dissents: the ruling was "interpretive jiggery-pokery".

Just so,  Antonin.  Just so.

(Scalia appears to be getting embarrassed at the lack of acumen of some of his SCOTUS peers.  And well he might.)

Is it all a sign of the times?  I believe so.  It reminds me of

A Story

It was s dark and stormy time.  To get through it, the people were called to the banner of Truth & Justice.  They responded in different ways, which determined their individual next steps.

The End

from TeaPartyC.C.: ’12 Must-Read Quotes From Scalia’s Blistering Same-Sex Marriage Dissent’ - posted by Asst Natl Dir Melony B. DeFord - June 26 (orig. posted at theblaze.com - Chris Field - June 26) 
(“No. 5: Five Justices Think They Know All

The five Justices who compose today’s majority are entirely comfortable concluding that every State violated the Constitution for all of the 135 years between the Fourteenth Amendment’s ratification and Massachusetts’ permitting of same-sex marriages in 2003. They have discovered in the Fourteenth Amendment a ‘fundamental right’ overlooked by every person alive at the time of ratification, and almost everyone else in the time since. They see what lesser legal minds—minds like Thomas Cooley, John Marshall Harlan, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr., Learned Hand, Louis Brandeis, William Howard Taft, Benjamin Cardozo, Hugo Black, Felix Frankfurter, Robert Jackson, and Henry Friendly—could not. They are certain that the People ratified the Fourteenth Amendment to bestow on them the power to remove questions from the democratic process when that is called for by their ‘reasoned judgment.’ These Justices know that limiting marriage to one man and one woman is contrary to reason; they know that an institution as old as government itself, and accepted by every nation in history until 15 years ago, cannot possibly be supported by anything other than ignorance or bigotry. And they are willing to say that any citizen who does not agree with that, who adheres to what was, until 15 years ago, the unanimous judgment of all generations and all societies, stands against the Constitution.

No. 6: Court’s Reputation Diminished

“The stuff contained in today’s opinion has to diminish this Court’s reputation for clear thinking and sober analysis.”…)

If ever there were a perfect example [of] how the liberals on the SCOTUS think the Constitution is 'a living document,' subject to amendment either by the official amending process allowed for, or by their personal social and political proclivities, this is it.

A. Scalia speaks truth to naked power.  Naked, for all to see, now: the emperor's new clothes.

from wnd.com: ‘I Fear Judgment Befalling America’ - James Dobson - June 26
(“Even though Friday’s re-definition of marriage by the U. S. Supreme Court was anticipated, I have found myself grieving over its implications for my country and for Western civilization itself. This radical decree will have a devastating affect on every dimension of culture…”)

..

NOW will more people wake up to the damage that can be wreaked by letting a non-natural born citizen take the high ground of the office of the presidency? Obama's two appointments to the SCOTUS are proving their worth to the socialist Usurper, with more such chaos to follow. An ounce of prevention being worth a pound of cure.

The American people let their managerial class let them know - or not - that Obama was an ineligible candidate for that office to begin with, and are now paying the price for their ceding over to others their responsibility, in a form of government that relies on self-governance to work; or it will work to the devious benefit of others. You blew it, America. It's not too late to get your country back. But it's damn late in the day for that rescue operation to be mounted.

Good headsup here.

I was WONDERING who, obviously, got to Paul Ryan on this trade stuff...He and his fellow sellouts have made their bed; now they have to lie in it.  For all to see.  As the Truth outs.  Such as this article provides.

May the Truth keep surfacing, in so many areas of political life today.  Keep on keeping us informed, TPC.C.  Otherwise, 'The people are destroyed for lack of knowledge'.
