Only One Justice Away from Being French by A.W.R. Hawkins - The more news coverage of the Supreme Court's "historic" decision upholding the Second Amendment I saw the more depressed I became. Though I'm grateful for the way the decision fell, I could not help being appalled by the fact that only 5 out of 9 justices now believe that the Constitution is constitutional. In short, the United States is only one liberal Supreme Court justice away from being judicially transformed into France.

Future Obama Court Choices: Don’t Let Constitution Stand in the Way of Liberals - Gregory D. Lee - The recent Supreme Court decision of Boumediene v. Bush concerning the habeas corpus rights of enemy combatants held at Guantanamo Naval Base illustrates the need for a president who will nominate jurists that follow the Constitution and not their own political ideology. For the first time, the Court has now extended U.S. constitutional rights to foreign nationals residing outside the country. What's all the more galling is that the recipients of this right were engaged in killing U.S. and coalition forces in Afghanistan and elsewhere. Now, this same court has agreed to hear the petition of a deported Pakistani national who wants to sue former Attorney General John Ashcroft and FBI Director Robert Mueller. He claims they subjected him to harsh treatment during several years of detention, and discriminated against him because of his nationality and religion. Have the liberal members of the Court secretly converted to Islam, or do they just hate President Bush like all other left-wing ideologues? Habeas corpus means: "Produce the body." A writ of habeas corpus is a court directive for an agency detaining a prisoner to bring him to the court to determine the lawfulness of the imprisonment.

High-Stakes Courts By Thomas Sowell - The point here is that federal judges, including Supreme Court justices, wield enormous-- and growing-- power. What that means is that when we vote for the candidates who will nominate and confirm judges, we are making decisions not only for ourselves but for generations yet unborn. ...Even more important than the particular issues that courts will decide is the more fundamental issue of what a judge's role is in our system of Constitutional government. In the gun control decision, for example, there were justices who read the history and meaning of the Second Amendment differently. What was most dangerous, however, was Justice Stephen Breyer's opinion that it was up to judges to weigh and "balance" the pros and cons of gun control laws. If we have Constitutional rights only when judges like the end results, we may as well not have a Constitution.

INDEPENDENCE DAY 2008 A Necessary Observance - Our system of government today is not so different from the monarchy we escaped, except that a swarm of bureaucrats have taken up the throne. A necessity thus presents itself to us as well: We must reconnect with the timeless principles that inspired our Founding Fathers; those same principles that long ago gave birth to a good, great and God-blessed nation. “[W]hat do we mean by the American Revolution?” reflected John Adams. “Do we mean the American war? The Revolution was effected before the war commenced. The Revolution was in the minds and hearts of the people; a change in their religious sentiments, of their duties and obligations... This radical change in the principles, opinions, sentiments, and affections of the people was the real American Revolution.”

Obama site urges: 'Revolution' against U.S. 'oppressive' regime Marxists, socialists, communists form group to plot on official campaign blog - Marxists, socialists and communists have created a safe space online to congregate, exchange ideas – including a stated revolution against the U.S. "oppressive" regime – and support their favored presidential candidate. Their meeting spot? Sen. Barack Obama's official campaign website, which allows registered users to form groups and post content in online "community" blogs.

Massachusetts Governor degrades self and insults state, marching in depraved homosexual parade. Very disturbed people playing out serious issues. This is the "gay" movement in Massachusetts. It was the "Gay Pride Parade" in downtown Boston. If you had stood across the street from the Massachusetts State House on June 14, 2008 this is what you would have seen coming down the street. Normal people would not do what you're about to see. But this is the essence of the homosexual movement. These people have serious psychological issues. Scroll down and you'll see our governor in the midst of all this. He degraded himself and insulted all of us by participating in this disturbing event. ,,,Our governor (and his family!) marched in a public "parade" that included contingents of sado-masochists, male dancers on floats simulating homosexual sex acts, transvestites and cross-dressers, and general sick behavior. (More photos and video also to be posted.)

Were America's Founders Deists? By Brannon Howse - Joseph Story served on the U.S. Supreme Court from 1811 to 1845, and in his commentaries on the Constitution of the United States, he wrote: Now, there will probably be found few persons in this, or any other Christian country, who would deliberately contend, that it was unreasonable, or unjust to foster and encourage the Christian religion generally, as a matter of sound policy, as well as of revealed truth. In fact, every American colony, from its foundation down to the revolution, with the exception of Rhode Island, (If, indeed that state be an exception,) did openly, by the whole course of its laws and institutions, support and sustain, in some form, the Christian religion; and almost invariably gave a peculiar sanction to some of its fundamental doctrines. And this has continued to be the case in some of the states down to the present period, without the slightest suspicion, that it was against the principles of public law, or republican liberty. The reason Story mentions that some think Rhode Island should be an exception is that, in considering the place of the Ten Commandments in their system of law, “Rhode Island adopted the last six of the Commandments, but not the first four.” The strategy of secular humanists is simple: If you say something often enough, people tend to believe it. So, in various forms, they repeat the myth that America’s Founders held to a secular, deistic worldview.

Lawmaker's comments labeled 'outrageous' A Massachusetts trial lawyer, also serving as chairman of the State House Ethics Committee, is under fire for advocating "ripping apart" child sexual abuse victims on the witness stand.

Perspective: Children in the 'gay marriage' crosshairs You've probably heard the argument: "Gay marriage won't hurt anyone. Live and let live, already!" Don't buy it for a minute.

Time to shut down homosexual clubs - By Linda Harvey - When are public health officials going to intervene and shut down homosexual clubs and other pro-homosexual programs in our schools? Last week, the Centers for Disease Control released a report on HIV/AIDS diagnoses between 2001 and 2006. The data revealed that HIV diagnoses rose over 12 percent annually among MSM – that's males having sex with males – in the 13 to 24 age group. Among all MSM, HIV/AIDS diagnoses are up over 8 percent during that time period (an estimated 1.5 percent annually). Did you get that? Each year, 12 percent more boys and young men were diagnosed with HIV. The trend is straight uphill. Yet homosexual activist groups like GLSEN and PFLAG, in lockstep with the ACLU and even Planned Parenthood, convince educators that safe-sex condom demonstrations, "gay straight alliances," and tolerance and diversity lessons are necessary "support" for those who are presumably born to engage in this behavior. Our beautifully designed 14-year-old boys were created to have anal sex? Right.
