“But on the scary side, we are one Obama Supreme Court appointment away from a total ban on public prayer....”
Darned right scary. It is nuts that 9 people have this say over every facet of our lives. Or should I say 5 people.
Well, you figure the reason it gets to the point of 5 justices having this power, is because lower courts consistently make liberal decisions, which work their way up the line.
If the lower courts nipped lawsuits over these issues in the bud, we wouldn’t get to the point where a bare majority of the Supreme Court is defining these issues for us.
But then that touches on the issues of federal judges in general. Obama continues to appoint hard leftists to the lower federal courts.
And this points up why elections matter. How many voters consider that the president is the one who will be appointing federal judges for the next four years, when they go vote?
