Announcing Free Republic's MARCH for JUSTICE II,
April 7, 2005, Washington, D.C.!!

Excerpt:

In October 1998, Free Republic marched on Washington demanding the impeachment of Bill Clinton. Thanks to our efforts, Clinton was impeached less than two months later.

Then, as now, our country stood at a Constitutional crossroad. This year we stand at the crossroad of what kind of judiciary we will have: One that is restrained by the Constitution, or one that abridges our rights by making it up as they go along.

President Bush and the Republicans in the Senate are gearing up for a showdown with the Democrats over his judicial nominees. The Democrats have used the filibuster in an unprecedented way to block judicial nominees from getting an up or down vote. Republicans, led by Majority Leader Bill Frist are getting ready to employ the Constitutional option--most likely in mid-April.

A simple majority is needed to implement the Constitutional option. However, even with a 55 vote majority, a victory by the Republicans is in doubt. Democrats, unswayed by their ever-diminishing numbers in the Senate, have threatened to almost totally shut down the Senate if the Republicans succeed.

The Democrats are desperate because the judiciary is their last hope to force their liberal, unconstitutional agenda on the American people. If the filibuster is broken, they know that President Bush will be able to nominate and get confirmed Supreme Court justices in the mold of Scalia and Thomas. If the filibuster holds, we'll get justices like Anthony Kennedy who look to foreign law and opinion to support their unconstitutional rulings.

Therefore, in order to support President Bush's judicial nominees, and to put the Senate and the courts on notice that We the People demand the Constitution be respected and maintained, we will march on Washington on Thursday, April 7, 2005.

Sounds like fun - and extremely necessary. Politics 101.

Today Rush announced that on Tuesday the repubs held a "secret" meeting - and only one item was discussed - WHEN AND HOW TO IMPLEMENT THE "CONSTITUTIONAL OPTION".

So .. it looks like all our screaming has had some effect - and was re-fortified yesterday when the Rush listeners inundated McConnell's office re the Boston Globe story.

What a great platform to start demanding term limits for the Supremes---an well as Congress. Mark Levin likes 12 years for SCOTUS and so do I. I think 12 also works great for both the HOUSE and SENATE. We have plenty of poster children making the case for term limits. Fill in your favorite example here-------

Yes, I'm hoping Bob J and FRN will come in on this. Would love to get ALL chapters and alliances on board. We need people from every chapter and EVERY state to be there!
