Article 1, Section 8 and Elena Kagan.

President Obama has nominated Elena Kagan, our current Solicitor General, for the US Supreme Court in replacement of Justice John Paul Stevens, who announced his retirement a few weeks ago. Members of the Main Stream Media and the New Media have been pouring through Elena Kagan's legal background, and one item caught my attention.

Before being appointed and approved as the US Solicitor General last year, Ms.Kagan served as the Dean of Harvard for several years, during which she led a protest against the United States Military and incorrectly wrote that it violates the First Amendment to withhold funds from colleges that ban the Military from recruiting on campus.

Thankfully the US Supreme Court disagreed unanimously, and sided with the United States Government on withholding public funds from Universities that banned Military recruitment. Infact, I wonder if Ms.Kagan has ever read the United States Constitution, especially Article 1, Section 8, Clause 12.

(Remember: Article 1, Section 8 deals with what Powers the United States Congress has)

Article 1, Section 8, Clause 12: To raise and support Armies, but no Appropriation of Money to that Use shall be for a longer Term than two years;

The United States Constitution has ordained Congress with Powers to raise and support Armies, recruiting on Universities, if approved by both Houses of Congress, is one hundred percent Constitutional, and no University has the right to ban such recruiting; through "public statements" or otherwise; the argument that a University can, is a complete falsehood.

Elena Kagan has already removed herself from the supposed "mainstream" of Judicial opinions with her opposition to Military Recruiters on Campus, while touting the false claim that withholding funds from Univerisities that banned recruiters was in violation of the First Amendment, once again, false, through and through.

Senate Republicans: This woman must be stopped at all costs from serving on the United States Supreme Court.

Joe's Babe of the Week

Dr. Joe comes to you writing from the New York annual sex convention, where yours truly has been picking up a lot of new things that I'm bringing back to the blog. I'm studying to get my PhD in Shagology and anyone who would like to be my research assistant, please call me at 555-JOEC.

So, without further ado, this week's babe is:
Sonia Sotomayor

Born in the same Impala that yours truly was conceived in, the future Justic Sotomayor was destined for greatness. Graduating from high school with recommendations from the chief custodian, Ms. Sotomayor wowed the crowds during her entire college career: six years at South Los Angeles Community College.

After receiving an AA in Criminal Justice, Ms. Sotomayor whined herself onto a local criminal court. After seeing how foxy the young Latina was, former President George H. Bush picked her to serve on a circuit court of appeals. After President Obama spent four hours looking at her melons earlier this year, Sonia was chosen as the first Latina, and by far the hottest, Supreme Court Justice.

Obama picks radical for SCOTUS.

I'll be honest, I want to discuss North Korea, and how we should begin the process of declaring war against this tyrannical dictatorship - as they are directly threatening America's security, and our allies security, however I must discuss a homegrown threat being nominated to the Supreme Court instead. When it was announced Justice Souter would be retiring from the United States Supreme Court, Conservatives including myself knew the choice to replace Souter would be a hard line Liberal, I worried Sonia Sotomayor would be the nominee, because of her belief that being a women & a hispanic outweighs the letter of law.

To my disarray, Sotomayor was selected by Obama to replace Souter on the Supreme Court, and the most recent information I have learned about Sotomayor is deeply disturbing, and just downright wrong.

Example of a recent case, that Sotomayor dealt with, and the Supreme Court is deciding now :

The New Haven Connecticut fire department was having a big exam to field possible candidates for a promotion, firefighters studied for weeks at a pace of hours a day for this exam, when the exam came, several firefighters passed the exam - expecting a promotion, however none of the firefighters were black - and afraid of a lawsuit & racial quotas, the fire department promoted no-one.

The violated the Constitution, and has shown what a failure of a system affirmative action is - not to mention just wrong, and unethical. The firefighters sued the city of New Haven and Sotomayor when the case was brought to her, instead of siding with the firefighters just wanting merit performance & rewarding success when it comes to employees, stood for un-constitutional racial quotas - a dangerous example of this womens radical beliefs. According to news reports, the Supreme Court has overturned 60% of Sotomayor's majority opinions.

Sotomayor also believes that latina women would make better judges then white males, which once again violates the law being followed ethic.

Sotomayor is also described as bullish, demanding, and thinks highly of herself - this from liberals who seriously dislike her, she has also made numerous other idiotic comments & statements that should be used against her, and is also for the most part anti-business, as shown when acorn connected SEIU praised the nomination.

It all comes down to this :

Obama has nominated a judge based on personal feelings & "diversity" of the court, which has nothing to do with the letter of the law, and violates the Founders want of Supreme Court judges who would follow the law & Constitution - instead of incite personal rancor & legislate from the bench.

Will the Republicans oppose or accept the radical?

They should oppose her at all costs.

But will they?

40 Republican Senators, and perhaps a brave few Democrats could derail this radical empathy driven Sotomayor, or will they succumb to political pressure?

Twenty years of Sotomayor on the court is at stake, we must oppose at all costs.

Note : Sotomayor also has hostile views towards the second amendment, and believes the states & local communities have the right to violate the second amendment, as the second amendment only applies to the federal government, this claim is sickening - as the Bill of Rights, protects the most sacred rights that cannot be touched by anyone - Federal, State, or Local. Lets also remember the history of the bill of rights, the states made a list of rights they wanted in the bill of rights, the Founders eventually selected twelve (only ten passed at the time), including the second amendment.

Sotomayor: Gun Ownership "Unconstitutional"

Obama's Supreme Pick
Nathan Figler
American News Inc.
May 26, 2009

President Obama has made a bold choice to replace Supreme Court Justice David Souter with Appeals Court Judge Sonia Sotomayor. Ms. Sotomayor, if confirmed, would be the first Hispanic Justice and would be only the third woman on the Court.

Sotomayor's resume is impressive, including a 1993 ruling in favor of a homeless man beaten by NYPD officers and her landmark decision in 2002 regarding terrorism suspects. In that case, she determined that suspects captured on the battlefield must receive all rights afforded to American citizens under the Constitution. Her controversial decision was later overturned by an Appellate Court, but still influenced current policy.

Sotomayor is a graduate from Princeton University, where her legal theses included Race in the American Classroom, and Undying Injustice: American "Exceptionalism" and Permanent Bigotry, and Deadly Obsession: American Gun Culture. In this text, the student Sotomayor explained that the Second Amendment to the Constitution did not actually afford individual citizens the right to bear arms, but only duly conferred organizations, like the military. Instead of making guns illegal, she argues that they have been illegal for individuals to own since the passing of the Bill of Rights.

Ms. Sotomayor's story is certainly one of success over adversity. Despite growing up in the projects, she has risen to become one of the most well-respected legal minds by the American left. Before joining the appeals court, Sotomayor was a legal consultant for the NYCLU.

Even with her meteoric rise, the nominee still believes there is work to do. In a 1999 interview with a local author, Sotomayor stated that she believed that the United States, "...may never truly be fixed. Racism and economic warfare still crush the dreams of countless second-class citizens. The unfair dimensions of our culture are staggering. You cannot succeed if you are born poor; you simply cannot."

The nomination is expected to go before the United States Senate where Republicans may give a strong fight against what may be considered "judicial activism."

Obama Considering Code Pink Leader Medea Benjamin for Supreme Court

Geraldine Kelly
WASHINGTON
May 1, 2009

President Obama declared on the campaign trail last year that any nominees to the Supreme Court under his watch would be "prudent, intelligent, and consistent with the highest law of the land."

Now with Justice David Souter retiring after almost 20 years on the highest court, President Obama has a decision to make. Near the top of his list include Constitutional scholars, circuit court judges, and chief law professors.

However, disconcerting to some conservatives is the fact that the President is considering Code Pink founder Medea Benjamin for the Court. Benjamin has been outspoken in her criticisms of the Iraq War, which she has compared to Nazi aggression against Poland and to slavery.

"This would be a bold and gracious move," Benjamin said in an email response, "If I was chosen, or any other member of the anti-war movement, we can make certain that the criminal excesses of the Bush regime are not repeated."

Benjamin said that her top priority on the top court would be to "return us to a nation of laws." This would include anti-torture and anti-war rulings. When asked if members of the Bush Administration should come before the Court for war crimes trial, she said, "without [a] doubt."

Senator Obama met with Benjamin twelve times during his tenure in the US Senate, including in March 2006, when he called her a "courageous, principled leader." In 2007 he attended an anti-war dinner in which Ms. Benjamin spoke for twenty minutes. During this period, she called the United States "the new fascist hyperpower" and called President Bush a "scumbag." Senator Obama applauded at the close of her speech.

Benjamin has been very outspoken on gun control. When asked in 2008 about the subject, she replied that guns were responsible for the vast majority of crime in the nation. She fervently supports the assault weapons ban and has called for tighter restrictions on the selling and ownership of firearms.

President Obama is expected to make his decision soon, but choosing Benjamin is uncertain. When asked if the President was going to nominate her, Press Secretary Robert Gibbs said simply, "No comment."

Good News as Gay Marriage is Spreading

Legal gay marriage is spreading amongst the 50 states, which will hopefully lead to a federal allowance for the practice. Now in Vermont and Iowa, along with Massachusetts and Connecticut, gay marriage is finally legal.

In 2000, Vermont initiated civil unions in the United States. Three years later, Massachusetts sanctioned gay marriage, as did Connecticut last October. So the events in Iowa and Vermont were bricks laid upon an already tested foundation.

It's about time. Hopefully Congress or the Supreme Court will allow the practice nationwide.

Connecticut OKs Gay Marriage

Let me be among the first to say that it's about time. This is an example of how the right thing can be done despite a lot of criticism. Connecticut has a popular Republican governor, and hopefully the decision of the Superior Court can stand.

This comes a week after Californians rejected gay marriage. It's too bad that a state that thinks so highly of itself, like California, cannot even keep a law guaranteeing rights. Hopefully, other states in the Union will take the lead and approve the practice. Then hopefully the federal government can create a blanket legalization. However, with many Democrats against it, it may take an act of the Supreme Court.
