O'BRIEN: A new poll from CNN and USA Today, and Gallup as well, 77 percent, in a nutshell, are against the federal court order to remove the monument. Do you feel that this is a strong vote from the American public, and that might actually pressure the Supreme Court into hearing your case?
TITUS: Well, the American people understand what the Constitution means better than federal judges do. Federal judges are so wrapped up in precedent that they have forgotten what the plain words of the Constitution are. The people of the United States understand that the First Amendment does not prohibit putting up a monument in a building, putting up a picture. They understand that that's not a law within the meaning of the First Amendment.
So, what you have here is common sense. Ordinary people understand that this is contrary to the Constitution, this ruling by the federal court. And I would hope that the judges on the Supreme Court would adopt that common-sense view. Justice's attorney: Commandments fight not over
You are being unduly charitable. Many judges know all too well what the Constitution says and means but simply choose to ignore it!
I'll second that! Try taking your kitchen counter scales to the marketplace and selling something by the pound. You'd be fined by the state standards board for using inaccurate scales. If you want to make sure something is right, you have to go back to the STANDARD. - BUT - It's Ok for the Supreme Court to use the last decision, based on the one before that, based on the one before that, to come to a conclusion. Unbelievable.
GO BACK TO THE STANDARD!
