BULLIES VS. BRAINS ON THE COURT

This week we saw the clearest demonstration in the modern history of the Supreme Court of Republican men bullying American women regarding their health care choices.

What the five Republican men on the court had described as a “narrow” decision, has already been expanded, much to the dissent of the three women Supreme Court justices and Stephen Breyer.

Remember this November, that these five thugs on the SCOTUS were ALL appointed by Republican presidents. Elections have consequences, all the way to our bedrooms. Who wants a bunch of sectarian, bitter men telling American women what they can and can’t do regarding their own bodies?!

Drown these rats and their sinking ship by bringing a BLUE tsunami to the polls this November 4th.

~~FROM A DEAR BLOGGER FRIEND~~

~John at “American Liberal Times”~

“This SCOTUS wants to replace the Congress and become the Supreme Ruling Body of the new Right Wing plutocratic Oligarchy someday and I think they are just stretching their wings and trying out their muscle – and they complain about the President ruling by fiat! Total hypocrisy!

Eventually – if The American People don’t wake up to their nefarious schemes – we are all going to see The Constitution completely re-written by edicts from that Bench in Washington (SCOTUS) and it will happen just like the old Communist infiltration technique of “Boring From Within” a little bit here and a little change in the law there – until all has been redone and none of it will even remotely resemble anything we know as America today. Mark my word! If they are not stopped, disaster is in the making for our way of life!

Maybe America will awaken in time. Americans have faced some tough challenges in the past and overcome them all.
Have faith in God and in The American Spirit.
Anyway sometimes the fire must come so that the forest can be renewed.

One of the first things that needs to be done is to balance the court – equal number of justices from each represented political faction – there is no limit written into how many justices there can be on the bench – the second thing that needs doing is that the justices need to be elected and not appointed and the final thing that would help a lot is to have justices on “Limited Terms” so that none of them could serve longer than say a President – I suggest a reasonable term limit for SCOTUS judges would be Eight (8) years. None of these actions are beyond what is already provided for in the Law.

I believe the American People need to be educated and then they need to be motivated and I think the only motivation that will move the masses is some really outrageous move by the power structure – something that would dramatically affect individual incomes. If something affects the pocketbook it always gets attention.

We all have the duty to our generations to become voices crying in the wilderness – even a little voice is better than none. That is why I blog about politics. No amount of effort – no matter how small – is without value in a valorous struggle – everybody has some kind of talent and can do something.”

SUPREME DISAPPOINTMENT

Americans used to respect the Supreme Court.

But not anymore. Not since they made corporations into people, gave corporations religious rights, removed limits on campaign spending and voted against women’s rights. This Gang of Five Republicans has a front row seat on America’s destruction.

They put profit over people and greed over need. The four Liberal judges are out voted 5-4 on the most critical decisions.

Wake up America!

Like George Carlin declared, “The American Dream is only true if you’re asleep.”
