Congressman Billybob's Speech at Today's March for Justice II

Special to FreeRepublic | 04/07/05 | John Armor (Congressman Billybob)

[EternalVigilance]

We are now functionally without a Constitution.

Shocking as that statement might be, it is unfortunately true.

Our entire legal and political establishment is now pretending that the Fifth Amendment, the heart of the Bill of Rights, the clause that is supposed to enforce the God-given and inalienable right to life, isn't even there.

When the government can issue death warrants against innocent Americans, and carry them out by cruel and unusual means, the very heart of the rule of law has been cut out.

And those who stood by allowing it to occur, when they had the power to stop it, also have blood on their hands.

Why should we be surprised, though. For over thirty years now we have allowed them to kill over 4000 babes in the womb per day. The horror we just witnessed in Pinellas Park Florida was just the next step.

Who will they declare not to be a person next?

[RikaStrom]

Every nominee for the Court should be asked just two questions: “What is the job description of a judge?” If the nominee gets that answer right, the next question is: “How does your career demonstrate that you live by that description?”

Beautiful in it's simplicity.

[Congressman Billybob]

And on behalf of Himself, Thang Q, good sir, for the kind words. I'm sure he'll be delighted to see everyone's feedback, and I know he's always happy to hear from you, okie.

Cheers,
FF

[John Lenin]

Have to come up with a way for people to show solidarity with the March for Justice fo those of us who can't be there.

Excellent!

But outlaws who wear black robes and carry gavels are dangerous to all of us at once.

[Dante3]

Well stated.

[JustaCowgirl]

Outlaws who wear masks and carry guns are a danger to us, one at a time. But outlaws who wear black robes and carry gavels are dangerous to all of us at once.

The danger is not just to specific laws, like the juvenile death penalty ones in 19 states. It is to ALL laws, in all states and in the federal government.

What an absolutely outstanding speech. Thank you.

[PleaseNoMore]

That is a mighty fine speech.

“Mr. President, tear down this Court.”

Amen.

[Tax-chick]

Great speech, CB. (And howdy to the Mrs.)

[Mudboy Slim]

Congressman BillyBob ROCKS...MUD

[nightdriver]

Atta boy, Congersman Billybob!! (Embarassing myself by applauding loudly!)

This is what the Constitution is all about and this is what America is all about.

I can't be there for the march, so step of a couple of paces for me, will you?

Thank you for that speech!

[Just A Nobody]

"His Indescribable Holiness" told us at dinner that you would be posting for him, thanks Felicity. It was a pleasure meeting him and his speech was awesome.

From the Gospel according to Abe, in The Gettysburg Address:

“... this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom -- and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.”

It is dismaying how many supposedly conservative people quote Abe Lincoln. This is a fellow who destroyed the South, trampled states rights, instituted a draft and expanded government.

Let's heretofore vow to restrict our presidential quotations to Washington, Reagan and GW Bush
