Since only a tiny minority of the Bush appointees are prepared to step outside the prevailing philosophies of the Constitution, and then that few cannot be appointed as "outside the mainstream", I have no idea where your optimism comes from. Our judges are no longer slouching toward a living constitution; they have killed off the old one and dance upon its corpse daily.

Quote of the day (from a U.S. Justice Department brief filed against my clients on 11/3/03):

"The few federal courts to consider the question have found that the Constitution does not afford a fundamental right to acquire, possess, or protect property"

WAKE UP. THINGS ARE WORSE THAN YOU CAN IMAGINE.

I never said President Bush would do it........I said "a President".

I believe that a future President will "reinterpret" judge's rulings, opinions, continued freedom, continued life, etc. and will make them sign on the bottom line, or pay severe penalties.

The Magna Carta involved such a threat of deadly force and it is considered to be an historical moment in the history of freedom. The King signed on the bottom line and he lived.

The day judges face that choice will be a day to watch........and celebrate.

Are you serious? That is one of the most outrageous quotes I've ever seen. It's horrible.
