Reb (Sutherland) Upholds S.C. Constitution

The Reb Sutherland for Governor campaign has intercepted two articles about the upcoming gubernatorial race written by pastors who are well known in Columbia, South Carolina.

Pastor Robert Slimp, Midlands S.C. League of the South Political Coordinator, wrote to the Heritage organizations and said, "I know the South Carolina League of the South will be proud to support Ken Wingate for governor."

Retired Chaplin E. Ray Moore, a leader in the home schooling movement, has written an article in a tabloid entitled, "The Columbia World", May, 2002, on page 8. His article is "June 11 GOP Primary: A Defining Moment For SC."

Reb has no problem with pastors leading their own Christian flock, because she considers it to be part of their calling. However, Reb does have a problem when pastors choose to lead their flock astray.

Both pastors have suggested to their followers that they should vote for an attorney. By doing so, they have asked the unsuspecting Christian community to violate the South Carolina Constitution. It very clearly states:

S.C. Constitution, Article III, Section 24 -- "No person shall be eligible to a seat in the General Assembly while he holds any OFFICE or POSITION of profit or trust under this State, the United States of America, or any of them, or under any other power, except officers in the militia, members of lawfully and regularly organized fire departments, constables, and notaries public. If any member accepts or exercises any of the disqualifying offices or positions, he shall vacate his seat."

An attorney or lawyer is a member of the Judicial Branch and holds the title, Officer of the Court.

The S.C. Constitution will not allow any person to serve in two branches of government at the same time (i.e., Executive, Legislative, or Judicial).

Therefore, attorneys are not supposed to run for the office of Governor which is in the Executive Branch. Also, attorneys are not supposed to become legislators.

The S.C. Supreme Court did rule about attorneys who serve in the two branches. Surprise, surprise! The attorneys in black robes (i.e., judges) ignored the S.C. Constitution and allowed their buddies to violate the constitutional precepts that bequeath the separation of powers. How can this be?

The BAR Association, a non-profit organization, has quietly set about the process of seizing the South Carolina government. It has infiltrated all three branches of government with its members and continues to take the seats of power.

Why is this a problem? The attorney legislators who make our laws can thereby profit from them in the courtroom. It is wrong for the person who makes the Law to also serve as either executor of its application or to serve as a prosecutor/defendant/judge of the Law. Citizens have no protection and no Due Process when the lines between the Branches are crossed.

To stop this travesty, citizens must immediately begin to uphold the S.C. Constitution. by themselves. We must stop voting for attorneys who run for legislative seats or executive offices. Citizens must un-elect attorneys who hold offices outside the Judicial Branch. Since the judges will not uphold the Constitution, it is up to the electorate to do so . . . or we will fall to their tyranny.

Reb believes it is time for Christian congregations to instruct their pastors to uphold the S.C. Constitution, or make them hit the road without pay. Didn't God give us this country and bless it? Don't Christians teach that God loves law and justice? Then, make it so.

The above site takes a few minutes to download but is worth the wait because it shows "Roy the Rat" greedily prowling through Atlanta looking for prey.

"The S.C. Constitution will not allow any person to serve in two branches of government at the same time (i.e., Executive, Legislative, or Judicial)".

"Therefore, attorneys are not supposed to run for the office of Governor which is in the Executive Branch. Also, attorneys are not supposed to become legislators".

I don't know anything about the law concerning this matter, maybe we have some FReepers here that just may. If this is true and Reb is upholding the Constitution, how can this person get away with this legally?

This article is correct, and we have the same problem in most states and in the Federal government. "Attorney's" are judicial officers and can not therefore serve in two branches of government.

It is also correct that the corrupt black robes continue to ignore this issue...No suprise all three branches are corrupt.

"It is also correct that the corrupt black robes continue to ignore this issue...No suprise all three branches are corrupt".

Then, do you think that this would be something that Judicial Watch would be interested in? Their motto is "No One Is Above the Law", although you'd never know it with some people, not to mention names.........CLINTON!!!
