No wonder the libs are after him: He Fights — and he fights good.

The party should not only support him, we should rally behind him and fight the fight with him.

During a routine House Appropriations Committee hearing last week to consider the Supreme Court's budget, Kennedy answered Republicans' criticism against judges by calling it "very healthy." He added that democratic dialogue makes democracy work.

I wonder which website he read that on./s

DeLay is a lightning rod. If the left wasn't attacking him, they'd be attacking Bush.

Democratic dialogue makes democracy work, unless the dialogue is contrary to Teddy's views, then you must be censored.

"and for writing court decisions "based on international law."

International law...
is not the Bible a reference to laws set down by foreigners?

Jefferson spent some 6 months or more consulting British, Greek and Roman history whilst preparing to write the Declaration of Independence.

It's not so much that they look to others to see what the current legal thinking is as much as WHO they look to. IMHO

And what's wrong with using the internet?

[Jacquerie]

Think about it. Our supreme jurists seek inspiration from alien law and traditions rather than from the fifty republican states right here.

By the way, the Constitution specifies that all legislative power resides in Congress. Legislating from the bench is therefore an abuse of power.

DeLay said during an interview on Fox News Radio's The Tony Snow Show. The interview was part of DeLay's public relations campaign with Republican-friendly news organizations

Have I mentioned how much I despise the liberal, dishonest, one-sided, biased, Democrat-friendly, unobjective, Clinton-butt-kissing media?

This is simple but it takes courage.
If a judge refuses to honor a congressional subpoena they have not acted with good behavior. Period. End of story. Impeached, guilty, gone.
If they honor the subpoena and cannot support their judgments with constitutional arguments that aren't full of tortured logic; poof. Bad behavior. Period. End of story. Impeached, guilty, gone.
No need to develop a tortured definition of "Good Behavior". We just have to be willing to put up with weeping, wailing, and serious gnashing of teeth from the Socialist Left. That takes thick skin, endurance and a good measure of legislative courage. (Unfortunately those commodities are more scarce than they should be)

[Huck]

Nice!

DeLay said he opposes judges "that don't follow the Constitution and write their own laws. And of course, the leftists hate it when we attack the left's last legislative body." Democrats have said

I love this.

[OXENinFLA]

House Majority Leader Tom DeLay ratcheted up his criticism of judges and singled out U.S. Supreme Court Justice Anthony Kennedy on Tuesday, faulting him for using the Internet to conduct research and for writing court decisions "based on international law."

YEEEEEEEEEEEEEEESSSSSSSS!!!!

[prairiebreeze]

Making note to contact Delay's office with message of support. Today.

[swampfox98]

Amen, DeLay. Don't let the blank-blanks get you. Stay and fight!

[Saundra Duffy]

Bump for DeLay

[rdb3]

And this is a reason why Rep. DeLay has my 100% support. Bring it on, Leftists!

[SkyPilot]

Going on the offensive was absolutely the right call. DeLay is a genius. The media is so angry and fearful of him, they are now publishing his latest "attack" all over the place.

What this does is frame the smear campaign against DeLay in the proper light---now even the most obtuse observers realize that this orchestrated "outrage" against him is all fabricated on liberals preserving judicial activism.

[traviskicks]

Brilliant comment about international law - stupid comment about the internet. Every law student nowadays does research that way. It's easier and faster.
