“Why would any of us think the Supreme Court would follow the Constitution?”
Seriously, there are 4 strong conservative justices at the Supreme Court. The case was presented and Justice Thomas allowed it to be brought to conference. If Scalia, Thomas, Roberts and Alito did not feel this case had merit, then it didn’t have merit.
This case was attempting to create a definition of natural born status, which was not clarified in the Constitution. Not only that, Donofrio was using a pretty obscure interpretation of natural born, which had never been used before. The SCOTUS obviously decided that his interpretation did not have merit. This is far different from failing to follow the constitution.
Chalk my comment up to total frustration of 'what is happening in our country'.
People's perception of history starts with the day they are born (Rush Limbaugh). Being 69 years old my perception is now full of fear for the country our children, grandchildren and great grandchildren are going to inherit.
Soviet despot Nikita Khrushchev observed that America’s transition from liberty to serfdom would have to be incremental: “We can’t expect the American people to jump from Capitalism to Communism, but we can assist their elected leaders in giving them small doses of Socialism, until they awaken one day to find that they have Communism.”
BHO leans so far left he is true to his upbringing of being a Liberal/Socialist/Progressive/Marxist/Leninist.
GOD help us all!!!
As the sun will rise in the morn be assured that the aforementioned justices will be sinisterly maligned by the [insert appropriate but disallowed term] here.
