As conservatives move to make better courts, liberals and progressives look far ahead and plan their strategy for trampling the Constitution into the mud.

The Democrat struggle to thwart Republicans cleaning up the courts in Washington and the rest of the country rages on. But no matter how the fierce the fight Democrats still frustrate Republicans by not bringing decent candidates up for a vote.
Someone said that Republican judges are in the majority in 10 out of the nation's 13 federal appellate courts. You would never guess that they are Republicans by their decisions. Yet by the end of President George W. Bush's term the count could be 12 out of 13, and about 85 percent of those circuit court judges could be Republican appointees, according to a March, 2005 report in the National Law Journal. But what is the victory when the cocktail circuit can ruin even the best of judges. Seven of the nine sitting Supreme Court justices are allegedly Republican. One would never guess because that acursed be-ye-popular-on-the-cocktail-circuit or be a conservative of ill repute appears to have turned at least one Supreme Court justice profoundly liberal. Perhaps this is why the US Supreme Court failed to stand up for property right for the individual citizen as written in the US Constitution but ruled to disenfranchise...no...kick 20 something families off their private property and allow a town councel, township, or other legal enety, to sell or give away their land and homes to yet another private owner who so happened to be building a multi-million dollar site that would enhance the tax coffers. Ah, there's that word tax again. It is small glee that one of the US Supreme Court Associate justices in on this travesty, namely "Justice" Sauter may have his personal property taken from him "for the good of the tax base." and the good of the town. It is said that a hotel known as,"The Lost Liberty Hotel" will stand on the once proud judge's former property and it is he...he he he that will receive a pittance for his property due in no small part, to his own folly. LOL here. Unfortunately, the plan to shift the guilty judge from landowner to land wanter is still just a plan. In the meantime the rights-trampled-on-gen-pub (general public) is supposed to find some solice in the fact that some 16 out of 22 appointments to the Supreme Court in the last 50 years were appointed by Republicans. Fat lot of good it has done John Q. Public as property rights go out the window, pregnant women can seek an abortion at any time during the pregnancy and more than a few babies have died because of an argument between the mother-to-be and the boyfriend or husband. Sometimes the guy goes to jail and after his release, he discovers that he is no longer a father.
She aborted the baby because he was in jail out of spite or because he was not "helping" her.
All of which lends a certain horendous truth to House majority leader Tom DeLay's description of the federal courts last month as ''the left's last legislative body.'' Federal judges are appointed for life; it could be a generation before the political balance shifts again toward decency if more liberalism creeps in. Many people say that states like California which is driving away business because of high taxes due to high expense for illegal aliens. A business boss knows he can recoop the cost of the move out-of-state in a year or two. States like Hawaii which forced employers to cover their employees with free or low cost hospitalization soon realized that they could afford to pay better salaries if everyone was part-time. It has been estimated that 90% of Hawaii's labor force is part-time. This means some of them must work two jobs and pay hospitalization out of pocket. After all working 64 hours per week can wear you down and you might get sick. To this Hawaiians say,"Thanks!" and still vote Democrat!" People are just naturally healthier when the have to be.
At an earlierApril, 2005 conference, many of the nation's top left-leaning law professors met with more than 600 activists, lawyers, and law students to imagine the day when Democrats and liberals emerge from the wilderness. What a sick bunch o' puppies! The Yale confab, was named , 'The Constitution in 2020,'' was sponsored by key elements in the huge, wealthy left-wing conspiracy namely the Yale Law School birthplace of pass/fail grading system, the Center for American Progress (In a handbasket to Hell), the George Soros-funded Open Society Institute (Fingerprints reveal that Soros fingered OSI ), and the American Constitution Society, better known to conservatives as the Anti Constitution Society or ACS), a fast-growing tumor-like organization founded four years ago to ruin and rebuff the work of the once-influential Federalist Society, which was been a forerunner in the drive for a more (decent) conservative judiciary since it was founded in 1982.
The swinging Yale event started a plan reminescent of Mao's Five Year Plan as it is a multi-year Anti Constitution Society project on ''The Constitution in the 21st Century,'' which is cunningly devised to stealthfully promote ''a progressive constitutional vision" also known as liberalism and leftist agenda although organizers will not admit that The feces-filled cranium "brainstorming" will go on in Washington in July at the ACS national convention, with three days of think groups with such titles as ''The Future of Election Law,'' ''Interrogation, Torture, and the War on Terror,'' ''Moral Values and the Constitution,'' and should ''the commander-in-chief's power be stiffled more. Yeb-a-debba-doo that John Edwards is a former North Carolina senator, former VP candidate in 2004 and will be a formerly featured speaker.
Predictably, the April howlfest at poor unfortunate Yale was noted as fiendish by the right winger and lovable harmless. fuxxball, Rush H. Limbaugh who took time to warn his listeners that ''a bunch of liberal elitists'' were ''toying around with the idea of rewriting'' the Constitution. When Rush is right he is sooooo right. And John Hinderaker noted on the website of the Weekly Standard that the politically twisted left ''wants the Constitution to enshrine its own policy preferences - thus freeing it from the tiresome necessity of winning elections.'' Right again, since twisted little thoughts from left-twisted little judges make warped little decisions that thwart the will of the people. Some will vote against higher taxes with their feet...they'll get the hell out of Dodge.
Bill Yeomans, the ACS programs director was quick to apply spin and declare that the convention is copying the model responsible for the success conservatives have had in putting forth several effective ''talking points'' on constitutional law. He also confessed that the main objective was to put together a spidernest of trial lawyers, left-leaning scholars, and liberal, self-serving judges who spin things well for public consumption. He did not want to call it a propaganda ring.
Lisa Brown, ACS exec dorector holds that, ''We're not talking about amending the Constitution here, only interpreting it in ways that we think are more in the spirit of the founding values''. In other words, reading things we like into what the constitutionreally actually says and then selling that bill of goods to the American people.
It would seem that many leftists are seriously considering the outrageous idea of asking the people what they want, after years of using the courts to promote their leftist agenda of utilizing legal rights and lawsuits to thwart the will of the people. So as a group of thinker elitists they consider to figure out what would best be the will of the people as far as they are concerned. May God have nercy on the general population with this crew influencing them through a generally lap-dog media which dwells on and dotes on, their every word. (If only in their dreams)

The "strict interpretation" of the constitution was, according to Attorney General Ed Meese during the 1980s, the Reagan administration's view of constitutional issues. This has been conveyed to be the "original meaning" as implied by the Founding Fathers who drew it up based on lofty premises of the day.
Meese's report stated that courts back then had interpreted Congress' powers too broadly and directed justice department lawyers to attempt to persuade the courts to collar federal power to the good of the states and localities. Still another report was called, ''The Constitution in the Year 2000,''. It listed fifteen issues vital to conservatism and made it crystal clear that the most crucial factor in profoundly influencing constitutional law in the near and far future would hinge greatly upon ''the values and philosophies'' of those chosen to be federal judges.
Seen through liberal eyes such as those of Dawn Johnsen, an ACS board member and Indianna University law professor decided that the Meese reports ''more or less said, ‘We want to remake Constitutional law.''' Actually, it said we want to turn this country away from its present course to the left.
And how would this positive influence inscrew the negative leftist damage already done?
Too many liberals and attempted moderates attempt to use the Constitution for the dividing up and firing up the minorities. They see the courts as the easiest and quickest way to promote liberal agendas and special rights for special victims. During the Yale Liberal Confab they even said, ''we'll have our people on the bench,'' as one so stated...we'll change a lot of things for the betterment of criminality. In 1972, the death penalty was re-instated with Texas leading the nation in reforming murderers after expensive lawyers exhaust appeal after appeal and tell their clients don;t just play dumb, act retarded, and you'll live. And poor, clueless New York insisting on lifetime retirement away from society so murderers can pursue their lives of penance and still persue some happiness with each other behind bars at public expense. Next came voting and ability to hide a prison record and free higher education but not gun ownership rights for ex-felons, reductions in sentences of drug offenders to encourage drugs and crime, beefed up defense of the assumed new rights of immigrants and foreign nationals to fight deportation and incarceration while preaching violence in the mosques, and protection of civil liberties in wartime for all especially the enemy who needs all the help he can get. Besides Muslims and Democrats want the same thing in different ways...and both want to rule from a higher authority. Both hate Christians, many Dems hate Jews, and many Dems blame America first...sort of a Demon Satan America ...after all they were born here and grew up miserable and wanting everybody else miserable for equality. Some Democrats want more restraints on the executive branch and applauded recent Supreme Court rulings against presidential power to hold ''enemy combatants'' in detention without a trial. See... they like Muslims who hate America automatically much like a kneejerk reaction.
