FROM A RECENT EMAIL BROADCAST FROM HIM
*** begin quote ***
Joe Biden has a plan to reduce the power of the Supreme Court. I’ll probably talk about this very soon on my show.
It seems the left has decided that the Court is a threat to their agenda, which is really funny because that is the only way they’ve been able to ram their unpopular plans down the throats of the American public.
Sure, some people like what they do. The same could have been said for any political movement in Western Civilization, but the left figured out in the 20th century that their authoritarian agenda would not have enough “democratic” support to make it work.
Hence, judicial tyranny.
Real “originalists” have been screaming at the clouds about this since the early 19th century.
I can hear Spencer Roane or Patrick Henry saying, “I told you so.”
*** end quote ***
When I was in grammar school a history assignment was to read the Federalist papers. That continued in high school. I read them but I didn’t grok them.
It wasn’t until I read Lysander Spooner that I went back to those Federalist Papers and had my eyes opened.
All the politicians and bureaucrats were tyrants then and now were tyrants in disguise.
“Would you tell me please, Mr. Howard, why should I trade one tyrant three thousand miles away for three thousand tyrants one mile away? An elected legislature can trample a man’s rights as easily as a king can.” Mel Gibson as the character Benjamin Martin in the movie The Patriot http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0187393/quotes
We’ve had our RIGHTS transformed into privileges. Deigned to us by our betters to be suspended at will and whimsy,
Argh!
