Neil Gorsuch slapped conservatives by creating new gay rights
New York Post ^ | June 15, 2020 | Josh Hammer

What we need is a more forceful conservative legal movement, just as willing as the left to make moral arguments in court, based on principles of justice, natural law (the rules embedded in our very nature as human beings), the common good and the religious and moral traditions underlying Anglo-American constitutional order.

For sure, one look at his church told the tale. Many of us expected him to do what he did.

Roberts and Gorsuch are ENEMIES of America and individual freedoms. More leftist human garbage hop on the pile.

I am over all of this. I don’t care what consenting adults do in their bedrooms. I would have preferred if civil unions were used instead of the sacrement of marriage, but governments and most Christian demoninations have caved on this, so be it. It’s good news for divorce and civil rights lawyers and of course, Gorsuch and Roberts will always look after the lawyers.

The real issue is that the Court decided to legislate and that has to stop. The Congress makes laws, the President approves them and executes them and the courts ensure that new laws conform to the Constitution and the rule of law. The Supreme Court exceeded their authority and until the 4 sitting Communists are replaced, all it takes is one with wobbly knees to put another nail in the coffin of the Republic.

” I keep thinking of one name, one acronym, and one word when I try to make sense of totally unexpected decisions like this: Hillary’s FBI files. (remember those? I believe they have been put to good use.)”

Heck you could convince me that some Democrat paid goon got to Gorsuch and Roberts in a private one on one “conversation” and told them how things would be. They of course would oblige the “conversation” especially if they wanted to make sure all their family members did not meet an untimely death. (see: Epstein, Seth Rich, etc....)

Judicial activism disguised as constitutional textualism. There goes the Supreme Court argument.

He also bought into the liberal lie that mentally ill people who think they’re the other sex have anything to do with homosexuals.

"Conservatives need outspoken, activist judges from the right to offset the activists of the left - not a handful of Alitos who actually walk the strict constructionist talk and will be outnumbered by leftist judges and turncoats like Roberts and Gorsuch. "

Conservatives need to realize there ARE NO CONSERVATIVE JUDGES!

Conservatives by there very nature are repulsed by the thought of having a permanent government job in which you sit in judgment of others and lord over the lives of others with your rulings. No conservative wants to wear some black robe and sit at a bench high over everyone else. It's simply not in a conservatives DNA.

Second the judicial system and government system itself is rigged specifically to filter out anyone but leftist big government ideologues.

There are two types of judges in the system that make up 99.99 percent of the field. There are leftist judges and there are fake conservative judges who early in their careers make more conservative rulings largely to advance in the system.

It is for these reasons so many apparent conservative judges get to the SCOTUS then suddenly start supporting leftist agendas. They NEVER were truly conservative to begin with, they have been faking it.

Yes there are very rare exceptions that slip through these wickets and fall outside the norm but they are very very rare indeed. So rare that we can rest assured we will never get five of them on the court at any one time, never.

If you want limited government conservatives need to wake up and realize the obvious and that is that government (ie the courts) are not going to deliver it, ever. The courts ARE government and there are very few limits on their power. It's the power that is the problem not the judges wielding it. Nine people in robes were never supposed to make the rules for 300 million, that folks is the issue.

In my mind yesterday was the end of the church as we know it. Maybe I’m overreacting but I don’t see any good coming out of this action. Gorsuch is a member of the episcopal church USA. They believe in ordaining practicing homosexuals and having them as priests and bishops. He could’ve left the church. We all said that when he was nominated and he didn’t and now he has acted upon his religion.

Sure there are - Justice Alito is one, Justice Thomas is another. The problem is that conservative judges by their nature can only hope to temporarily stop or slow the advance of judicial activists. They can never reverse the left-wing advance and they will not legislate from the bench to advance right-wing causes. What's needed are right-wing activist judges to promote a right-wing agenda and counter the left-wing activist judges. Not conservative judges - right-wing activists who want to serve in the courts.

I agree. Either would probably work. I always wonder if someone did that to me if I would have the guts to head for Fox News or call Rush to say someone was pressuring me...

I’m at the point of wanting computers to decide law. Put in all the facts and wait for the decision. And I don’t mean lawyer “facts” I mean just THE FACTS.
