By all means, wear the low brow “insults” around here with pride.
Red has just been crying into his beer again about why amateurs don’t win in court, or on alternate days, why the fascinating field of birth certificate raving is so under appreciated.
The only thing any person of even moderate intelligence needs to know about the Obama eligibility issue is that there are about fifteen well known conservative, constitution protecting law firms in this country who argue conservative, originalist issues before the Supreme Court and have attorneys who are admitted to the Supreme Court bar. Not ONE of those conservative, originalist, strict constructionist backing law firms has gone anywhere near ANY of the birther lawsuits.
I’m talking about The Center for Individual Rights, The Washington Legal Foundation, The American Center for Law and Justice, the Landmark Legal Foundation, Judicial Watch, The Federalist Society, the Society for Law and Public Policy Studies, The Institute For Justice, the Pacific Legal Foundation, The American Enterprise Institute’s Legal Center for the Public Interest or the Alliance Defense Fund.
For just one example, where is the Federalist Society with Obama’s constitutional ineligibility?
The Federalist Society for Law and Public Policy Studies, most frequently called simply the Federalist Society, is an organization of conservatives and libertarians seeking reform of the current American legal system in accordance with a textualist and/or originalist interpretation of the U.S. Constitution. The Federalist Society began at Yale Law School, Harvard Law School, and the University of Chicago Law School in 1982 as a student organization that challenged what its members perceived as the orthodox American liberal ideology found in most law schools. The Society asserts that it “is founded on the principles that the state exists to preserve freedom, that the separation of governmental powers is central to our Constitution, and that it is emphatically the province and duty of the judiciary to say what the law is, not what it should be.”
The Society currently has chapters at over 180 United States law schools and claims a membership of over 20,000 practicing attorneys (organized as “lawyers chapters” and “practice groups” within the Society’s “Lawyers Division”) in sixty cities. Its headquarters are in Washington, D.C. Through speaking events, lectures, and other activities, the Federalist Society provides a forum for legal experts of opposing views to interact with members of the legal profession, the judiciary, law students, and academics.
Please - Yale, Harvard, Chicago are bastions of liberal thought.
Well, I’ll be honest. You’ve managed to surprise even me with the response you evoked. It’s simply astonishing to see people so completely ignorant of the modern Conservative movement they apparently don’t comprehend the significance of the Federalist Society.
