What Conservative Court?

By Bobby Eberle
June 30, 2003

There has been a longstanding charge by liberals, both in government and the media, that the United States Supreme Court is too conservative. This belief has led to scare tactics by Democrat legislators and pundits that President Bush's mission is to stack the entire court system with even more of the dreaded conservative judges. There are many who believe that efforts by Democrats to filibuster judicial nominees such as Miguel Estrada and Priscilla Owen are done merely to set the stage for when a vacancy opens up on the Supreme Court. But, do the charges from the left hold water? Is the Supreme Court really as conservative as they claim?

The recent rulings by the Supreme Court on a host of social issues proves that the cries by liberals are completely unfounded. Just ask leading social conservative leaders about the so-called "conservative court," and you'll get shaking heads, faces of disappointment, and sighs of defeat. In a week of rulings that could have set a new tone for America, the Supreme Court proved that social traditions take a back seat to mandated social change, states rights has little meaning, and discrimination for the sake of diversity is permissible.

Maybe you should write him and talk to him about it. I figured it was because it was an editorial. I got permission from my paper to post their editorials on here. Figured it was safer to ask.

Personally I only like to excerpt if I have several items on the same thread with articles. Then I always keep a copy incase they are not there in the future.

Thanks for the info. Well now he is completely out in the open and we can all see for ourselves what his agenda is -- defeat President Bush!

Back to where I was before I tried to be nice! War paint is on for the upcoming election and time for a take no prisoners approach.

Now, now - that's only until May 1, 2004 - or is it April, 2004 now? Sheesh - I need a scorecard to keep up.

When one of those dates occurs, Todd will throw his full support behind the Socialist Bush...

Thanks for the ping. It's comforting to see that President Bush will be bashed on any thread including one regarding a decision by a court he had no hand in appointing.

Just watch the opposition folks, their level of resistance to future nominees will tell you how conservative they are. Watch and wait.

You noticed that, too? If I didn't know better I would swear it was orchestrated, it happens so often.

Don't kid yourself, of course it't orchestrated. It's the same .02%rs each and every time.

It will be a long, hot summer as far as the Bush bashers are concerned. Just like the summer before 9/11 when we were bombarded by reports of shark attacks, so too will those on the left and their enablers, the Libertarians, spend the dog days blaming Bush for everything from murdering snipers in Iraq to the weather. Count on it.

Anyone who thinks the words in the Constitution have any bearing on court rulings, has not studied the last 198 years of court decisions.

198 years? My view is that the federal courts, while occasionally they made political decisions, were considerably more honest than not until -- oh, say, 1936, and that, in the five years after that, the courts became fundamentally dishonest.

Instead of complaining about TLBSHOW's statement without explanation, perhaps you could explain why you think it is inaccurate to call him socialist?

Projection? The support-Bush postings look a lot more orchestrated to me.

They will support Bush for all his socialist ways even Howlin the head cheer-leader admits she is a socialist.

I praised him for being honest.

Give it a rest. Bait not taken.
