"But all these arguments fail because they merely suckle at the breast of sophistry."

Perfervid purple prose bump.

It is doubtful that more than one or two of the Justices are either Nietzscheans or Marxists. ;^)

But all these arguments fail because they merely suckle at the breast of sophistry ... It is simply idiotic to bring a softball to a gunfight. Joe McCarthy understood this.

We are at the crest of a 40 year wave of 'progressive' ideology, and in that process we have collectively become dupes of habituation.

The abolition of historicity and moral foundation has been evidenced by SCOTUS since Roe v Wade discovered 'privacy'. It has now moved into whole new avenues of promiscuity and the permanent ensconcement of the victim classes. In the Marxist lexicon of Justice Breyer, "it's becoming more and more one world of many different kinds of people."

Words mean things. SCOTUS should be defied and verbally abused for these recent rulings. They gut the Constitution. They are a sham. These "rulings" cry out for our loud and public contempt.

Sodomy can be stopped if good people start to sue them for the costs of taking care of STD. Conservatives must learn to use the court system just like the Liberals. In war one must adopt successful tactics. Going to the legislature takes too much time, not all GOP lawmakers have the moral courage to do what is right and finally the law passed can be nullified by the courts. Let us leverage the greed of lawyers to enhance our agenda. Many gay people and institutions are wealthy. All we need to do is find a legal means to discourage their behavior by holding risky behavior financially accountable for the damages on our public health.

Scalia answered in his dissent: "The court's discussion of these foreign views is ... meaningless dicta. Dangerous dicta, however, since this court ... should not impose foreign moods, fads, or fashions on Americans," he said quoting the 2002 Foster v. Florida case.

B.S. Alert-this author does not have a clue

"The 'he' whose thinking the foregoing describes was Friedrich Nietzsche, the same Nietzsche who declared, "G-d is dead", and who died hopelessly insane before he could complete his "Revaluation of Values."

Yet more Nietzsche bunk and bastardization. Nietzsche called for something other than the passive nihilism of the Postmodern Left agenda of today. In fact he largely predicted the European Nihilism which has since infected much of the world. He died in 1900, after falling ill some 10 years prior. He failed to finish "Will To Power".

More junk rendering of one of the greatest philosophers and minds that this world has ever produced.

This article should be in a publication aptly named: "Twilight of the Idiots"

Herr Nietzche is one of the most misunderstood, oft incorrectly quoted and complex philosophical minds in human history.

Thank you.

I examined the Table of Contents of 24:2 and indeed, found numerous articles referencing Nietzsche.

Could you please direct me to the one which identifies certain Supremes as Nietzscheans?

I've always wondered about the marketability of a sweatshirt emblazoned with the phrase 'Nietzsche is Pietzsche'.

Nietzche is pietzche, but Sartre is smartre.

Bump for the Polish Prince. He was after all Polish, but you know what they said about pollacks in HS. Damned if Copernicus was not a Pollack too.

Having progressively and contradictorily established in law a motley assortment of classes, the O'Connor court has now set itself the task of the great leveling of the global playing field by oozing the 'artificial' barriers of individuated sovereign law into one great world constitution.

And that, my friends, is more than a violation of trust and oath of office that vows to uphold the United States Constitution. It is an insidious attempt to usurp the power of the states and indeed, the sovereignty of the United States

There are some questions this post raises:

Could much of this activism have been diverted if the High Court Justices were accountable to the electorate?

Do Justices, who are given absolute power to change a society, at some point begin to believe in their own divinity?

Why is it so impossible to bring the High Court Justices down to earth and make them face the vote of The People as other politicians do?

If The People do nothing and allow the present system to continue what will happen to this Republic?

¨Could much of this activism have been diverted if the High Court Justices were accountable to the electorate?¨

The U.S. Constitution states "Judges… shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour." Federalist #78 expounds on the concept of 'good behavior'.

The electorate lacks the will to compel the elected to act in accordance with the Constiution.

¨Do Justices, who are given absolute power to change a society, at some point begin to believe in their own divinity?¨

Chief Justice John Marshall: "The government of the United States has been emphatically termed a government of laws and not men?"

Decades later, their opinions became oracles - Justice Charles Evans Hughes, "We are under a Constitution, but the Constitution is what the judges say it is."

¨Why is it so impossible to bring the High Court Justices down to earth and make them face the vote of The People as other politicians do?¨

Indirectly they do, through the President who appoints with consent of the Senate. The House can impeach and the Senate can try impeachments. Congress can alter the jurisdiction of the Courts. The President can refuse to enforce opinions.

¨If The People do nothing and allow the present system to continue what will happen to this Republic?¨

According RJ Rummel, as regimes become more totalitarian over a populace which has elements that are likely to resist, the greater the probability that regimes will resort to democide. The assault on the Second Amendment is one of many steps toward the DNCs' final solution for America.
