No, it is not how our system works. We have a republic, not a majority-rules democracy, and the U.S. Constitution is the rule of law, not what 9 black-robed elitists say it is.

No, that's not what I meant - I'm saying each State can trump these nutty liberal judges. Florida has a law on the books that forbids what these judges say is OK, and that law stands. Until we can get judges who hold up the law rather than making the law, we're stuck with roundabout patches. But patches work. And if it matters, get your state to write a law until we can get more conservative judges in the SC.

Claire Wolfe is a revolutionary and we're just not there. It's not perception that matters, it's reality that matters. And as long as we can trump these nutty judges with state laws the system works. We can vote the liberals out, and by doing that get a more conservative court. That's our way. And it might not be the best way, but it's better than anything else the world offers.

"...I'm saying each State can trump these nutty liberal judges."

Only until the SCOTUS issues another unconstitutional decision ruling that all inconsistent state laws are null and void. And what makes you think this won't be next?

"Until we can get judges who hold up the law rather than making the law, we're stuck with roundabout patches. But patches work."

Wrong answer. American citizens are entitled to have the SCOTUS protect their constitutional rights. We should not have to rely on "patches" when it comes to such fundamental rights.

"And as long as we can trump these nutty judges with state laws the system works."

Only until a left wing judiciary decides federal law must trump state law. Then where are you? And don't bother to tell us this will never happen--it can and probably will.

" Claire Wolfe is a revolutionary..."

Perhaps, but that doesn't mean she isn't right.

"...and we're just not there."

Every one will have to decide for themselves where to draw the line. Clearly, for you that point is far down the road, perhaps further than the eye can possibly discern. As for me, I'm standing on that line. I've had more than enough.
