Gagnon (Associate Professor of New Testament at Pittsburgh Theological Seminary; B.A. degree from Dartmouth College, an M.T.S. from Harvard Divinity School, and a Ph.D. from Princeton Theological Seminary is the foremost Christian apologist (though not a fundamentalist) opposing the homosexual activism.
As a commenter stated,
They actually have no real power because they rely on the other two branches to fall in line.
So we could just start laughing at them. Once that starts then getting a new law passed clarifying the courts power can be made easy.

The power in the United States of America, by virtue of the constitution, lies in the people through the house of Representatives. Which has the power to remove justices from the USC.
The courts have had enough power to destroy our country or at least aid in its destruction.

So at this stage wouldn't it be proper to consider sedition and treason to be patriotic acts?
No need for rational thought. A Living Constitution just grows new appendages as needed and those old “vestigial” organs like the 2A just whither and fall off. Easey Peasey.
This is such a good article, Daniel. Thanks.
The left has the advantage that they don’t care about laws, ethics, truth or any other obstacle to reach their goal while the right plays by the rules.

In Obamaland, Leftists can say anything and it is automatically declared TRUTH. In Obamaland, Leftists can do ANYTHING without fear of consequences, as the bulk of ‘judges’ are now on their side. How many judges were approved after Reid triggered the ‘nuclear option’, without so much as a whimper from Big Media?
When the same conditions as above exist, yet the government retains the ability to apply force and violence at whim it's called a Dictatorship.
The article is very well written and has some very good insights into the Supreme Soviet's recent Alice in Wonderland Oberkfell decision and it's insane, twisted, perverted logic.
I disagree however, that the Extremes abolished Article V of the Constitution. They certainly ignored it but it is still there, available to be EXERCISED.
And I don't mean by the first method, but by the second. (Waiting for and putting our hopes in US Congress critters feathering their own nest and exempting themselves from the laws to which they subjugate us is like waiting for Hell to freeze over. They are part of the cancerous tumor eating away the life of this Nation. They are not going to upset their own nest.)
The solution is right there already, embedded in the Constitution:
Article V The Congress, whenever two thirds of both houses shall deem it necessary, shall propose amendments to this Constitution, or, on the application of the legislatures of two thirds of the several states, shall call a convention for proposing amendments, which, in either case, shall be valid to all intents and purposes, as part of this Constitution, when ratified by the legislatures of three fourths of the several states, or by conventions in three fourths thereof, as the one or the other mode of ratification may be proposed by the Congress; provided that no amendment which may be made prior to the year one thousand eight hundred and eight shall in any manner affect the first and fourth clauses in the ninth section of the first article; and that no state, without its consent, shall be deprived of its equal suffrage in the Senate.Article V of the United States Constitution allows us to call a Convention of States to restrict the power and jurisdiction of the federal government, effectively returning the citizen's rightful power over the ruling elite.
The Founders understood the jealousy and ambitions of power. That's why they wrote the Constitution the way they did and why they put that Article V CONTITUTIONAL CHECK on Federal power into the Constitution. It is a CONSTITUTIONAL SOLUTION that, as Mark Levin says, is a big as the problem.
So let's let the States be jealous of their own powers and put these Federal tyrants back in their rightful place.
Cordially,
Didn’t The Supreme Court make a finding completely opposite
to The First Amendment?
As some suggested President Andrew Jackson alluded to in Worcester v. Georgia:
In a popular quotation that is believed to be apocryphal, President Andrew Jackson reportedly responded: "John Marshall has made his decision; now let him enforce it!" This derives from Jackson's comments on the case in a letter to John Coffee, "...the decision of the Supreme Court has fell still born, and they find that they cannot coerce Georgia to yield to its mandate," (that is, the Court's opinion because it had no power to enforce its edict).[1]
But of course Georgia complied without the need for federal executive enforcement.
The Anti-Federalist papers were right. The corruption of the constitution was foreseen.
