SCOTUS - Six Constitutionalists vs Three Evil Oracles on the Mount?
The Left would like the court to have nine oracles!
They want justices who side with the left's activist ideology, who believe the constitution is a "living, breathing document" (it is not), allowing the Oracles to rule as the Oracles see fit, turning the founder's great experiment in Liberty into a socialist hellscape of government overreach and oppression. The left doesn't want a Supreme Court, they want progressive women and men to rule over us with dictatorial freedom to impose upon us the unconstitutional laws that take away our freedoms and expand the government's reach into our lives and our pockets.
The Supreme Court is bound by the Constitution, while Oracles are bound only by their own grand opinions and one-world government ideologies.
In the recent New York vs Bruen case, in which SCOTUS overturned the New York "may issue" gun carry law, making this country a "shall issue" freedom zone, Justice Bryer's dissenting opinion included this...
"In my view, when courts interpret the Second Amendment, it is constitutionally proper, indeed often necessary, for them to consider the serious dangers and consequences of gun violence that lead States to regulate firearms." Page 85 - 2 of dissenting opinion.
His view, of course, would be wrong. Completely wrong. His view is nothing more than his personal opinion, or in today's liberal vernacular, his "truth." His "view" is not, however, embedded in the constitution, nor how the Judicial Branch works. He is bound by law and duty to rule as the constitution requires, not by his head, heart or ideology. It's one of the most difficult things a justice must do, for even if he believes the constitution is wrong, he must rule with the constitution and trust Congress. Congress is there to make law - they are the "legislative branch" - it is not the Supreme Court's place to legislate from the bench, making law out of thin air - which is what the left would so dearly love.
But they are not Oracles!
Take the reversal of Roe v Wade, which did not ban abortion.
As Justice Alito wrote in the opinion...
"The Constitution does not prohibit the citizens of each State from regulating or prohibiting abortion. Roe and Casey (Planned Parenthood v Casey - 1992) arrogated [usurped] that authority."
Conservative Ben Shapiro, best-selling author, a lawyer with a degree from Harvard Law, columnist, and Editor Emeritus of the Daily Wire explains...
"Alito is, of course, correct. Roe is a legal abomination with no support in the Constitution's text, our nation's history or any legal precedent. The Supreme Court merely usurped power in order to jam down its political opinions on millions of Americans; Roe didn't end national controversy on abortion, it froze it in place, preventing states from adopting regulations tailored to their voters. Overturning Roe would merely restore the question of abortion to the states; New York would continue to allow abortion until birth, while Texas would ban nearly all abortion."
The original Roe v Wade ruling was "oracles" over the constitution.
Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., said she was "angry and upset ... The Republicans have been working toward this day for decades. They have been out there plotting, carefully cultivating these Supreme Court justices so they could have a majority on the bench who would accomplish something that the majority of Americans do not want."
Why does Warren fear voters taking control of their destiny if the majority of Americans - she claims - do not want Row v Wade overturned. Could it be because she twisted the poll numbers to her favor, to support her argument? As The Federalist reports...
"...a recent Harvard Poll says the majority of Americans, 72 percent, support bans on abortions at least as restrictive as a ban after 15 weeks of gestation. Even 60 percent of Democrats say their states should allow abortions no later than 15 weeks. That’s a drastically different position than Democrat politicians’ calls for unlimited abortion and the media’s amplification of that radical position."
Chuck Schumer released this completely false and quite honestly insane missive to the press - with my comments interspersed...
“Today is one of the darkest days our country has ever seen. Millions upon millions of American women are having their rights taken from them by five unelected Justices on the extremist MAGA court. [You know, those pesky constitutional originalists.]
"These justices, appointed by Republicans and presiding without any accountability, have stolen a fundamental right to have an abortion away from the American women in this country. [Not true, the decision did not ban abortions, but returned the question to the States, one step closer to the voter, one step closer to the democracy the left claims they want, and a constitutionally correct decision. And, on a side note, there is nothing in the constitution that confers a "right" to take the life of an unborn child.]
"Today's decision makes crystal clear the contrast as we approach the November elections: elect more MAGA Republicans if you want nationwide abortion bans, the jailing of women and doctors, and no exemptions for rape or incest. Or, elect more pro-choice Democrats to save Roe and protect a woman's right to make their own decisions about their body, not politicians." [And there it is. This is the real reason for all the hyperbole, misinformation, and lies. It's fear-mongering for votes, a rant to anger and incite their political supporters to get to the polls and stop the evil, wicked Trump-supporting MAGA followers - re: anti-socialist, Constitutional freedom-loving Americans.]
Why doesn't the left go ahead and pass a law protecting abortion? That's what Congress does. That's what legislators do. And they continue to avoid the hard fact that the Democrats have complete control of the government! They have the Presidency, the Vice-Presidency, the House of Representatives, and the Senate! But of course, they won't pass that legislation. Why? Because it would just anger 72% of voters. It would be detrimental to their re-election bids.
The coming elections, November 2022 and beyond, will shape our country for years, if not generations, to come. Freedom lovers must unite and vote before we don't have freedom anymore, being ruled by Nine Oracles on the Mount.
