The Supreme Court is an illegitimate tag team of tyranny, an un-Constitutional fiction created by megalomaniac John Marshall. The addition of this anti-European-American liberal fascist only confirms what we already know. It’s time to get rid of the Supreme Court. When Free America is formed from the ashes of the USSA, there will be no high priesthood of unaccountable elitist mandarins.
Hitler and Mussolini; same ole same ole.
From 2004, Score One for the Democrats in Memo-gate Spin :
... judicial memo to Sen. Richard Durbin (D-IL) stressed the need to delay action on D.C. Circuit Court nominee Miguel Estrada. The memo labels Estrada as "especially dangerous." Included in the reasons for this label was the fact that Estrada is "Latino."
That’s not how Barry tells it . . .
