THE U.S. SUPREME COURT ERADICATES
AMERICAN CONSTITUTIONAL PRINCIPLES

JUDICIAL DESTRUCTION OF THE UNITED STATES CONSTITUTION: DECIMATION OF AMERICAN CONSTITUTIONAL
PRINCIPLES BY AMORAL, LEFTWING LIBERAL JUSTICES ON THE UNITED STATES SUPREME COURT -- THE LATEST RASH OF
OUTRAGEOUS U.S. SUPREME COURT DECISIONS: DEMONSTRATION THAT THOSE AT THE APEX OF POWER IN THE U.S.A.
ARE WELL ON THE WAY TO DESTROYING THE U.S. CONSTITUTION, ASSUMING DICTATORIAL CONTROL OVER THE AMERICAN
POPULATION, & TRAMPLING THE LONG-STANDING RIGHTS OF U.S. CITIZENS
FULL STORY:
Throughout the course of history, the overriding tendency of those in power
is to manipulate that power to their own benefit. Regardless of any noble
premises on which governments might be founded, over time they nonetheless
degenerate into self-serving conclaves, whose ultimate purpose is the
betterment of their own lot through the implementation of their own agenda.
In the end, those at the apex of power assume dictatorial control, while the
rights of the common person are obliterated. The latest rash of outrageous
U.S. Supreme Court decisions demonstrates that this nation’s governing
institutions are already well on their way down that slippery slope.
As Americans have institutionally and individually abandoned that morality,
their government has done likewise. The result is that it no longer stands
guard on their behalf.
Some have expressed amazement at the apparent role reversal of U.S. Supreme Court
Justices in the recent Kelo v. New London decision, which expanded the
concept of “Eminent Domain” to include the transfer of private and lawfully
owned property from one citizen to another.
In truth, no role reversal on the Supreme Court exists. The voting breakdown of
supporting and dissenting justices is, with the occasional exception of
Sandra O’Connor, just as it has always been. Those justices who advocate
morality recognize their need to support the United States Constitution in its original
form.
Those, on the other hand, who claim it as a “living document” (which some
have rightly asserted as proof that they really regard it as a dead
document), show no regard for either its protections of the common citizen,
nor any other lofty premise within its hallowed text.
Admittedly, the decision exploded the myth of Liberalism as societal
compassion for the “little guy” (in contrast to big business capitalism) .
Rather, the distinctions between Conservatism and Liberalism are, and have
always been about morality as opposed to immorality; the noble experiment
called the U.S. Constitution as contrasted against its many shabby counterfeits;
and, ultimately, the choice between freedom or subjugation for the masses.
During the past several decades, the Supreme Court has been about the
business of decimating the fundamental rights of life and liberty, with its
blanket legalization of abortion, the criminalization of prayer in the
government schools, and other unbridled assaults on the fabric of
American culture.
Recently, it laid waste to freedom of speech by upholding the abominable
precepts of campaign finance “reform” legislation. So why should anyone be
surprised that, with this Kelo decision, it would lead the final assault on
the right to property, and the inseparable corollary to that right, the
“pursuit of happiness.”
In consideration of past excesses perpetrated by the high Court in the name of
the “Interstate Commerce Clause,” one can only wonder how far reaching the
aftershocks of the Kelo decision might be. What abominations to the American
way of life might ensue, once its horrendous reasoning is incorporated into
the vile mixture of confusion and incomprehensible evil, known as
“international law,” increasingly invoked by such Supreme Court Justices as
Kennedy and Breyer?
Mexican President Vicente Fox and his minions have already asserted the
existence of “constitutional rights” for illegal aliens in America (based, much
like the Kelo decision, on the economic benefits accrued to Mexico).
Americans have been outraged in recent months, as the nation’s high courts
have “discovered” constitutional protections now to be bestowed on foreign
terrorists. Meanwhile, those long-standing rights of Americans are being
unceremoniously trampled.
Perhaps, the rest of America is now beginning to wake up to the alarming
truth realized by Conservative Christians, pro-lifers, Second Amendment
advocates and others who, throughout the past several decades, watched in
horror as the courts desecrated one constitutional principle after another.
Clearly, no one can afford to leave their security and freedom in the hands
of a judiciary that has run completely amok.
Ronald Reagan, as he presided over the collapse of the Soviet Union, exulted
that Marxism, along with every other repressive ideology of the past, would
eventually be relegated to “the ash heap of history.” It is deplorable, but
undeniable, that the activist judges on the U.S. Supreme Court are committed to
delivering the American Constitution there as well.
