Please Note, this piece is an opinion. In it I refer to felonies having been committed by Elena Kagan and Barack Obama. As neither of these individuals have been prosecuted by officers of our judicial system, nor convicted in the same, this remains solely my opinion.
You can always tell what Democrats are up to by listening to what they accuse Republicans of doing. We’ll use some examples of this statement for context. During the height of spontaneous outrage over the Obamacare legislation which occurred all over America in the summer of 2009, Nancy Pelosi went to the nearest bank of microphones and cameras and told us it was just AstroTurf. Perplexed, a reporter asked Nancy to define the term. She told us of the little known practice of faking buzz and interest in an issue or candidate. This is accomplished by loading buses filled with professional protesters, and taking them to where the epicenter of the issue is. Mass mailings of editorial letters to every newspaper in the country claiming that they all were written by local citizen. Packing town hall meetings with professional protesters again to give the appearance of dissent stronger than what the dissent may actually be. to date, the GOP instances of astro turfing verified is still at zero. To date, the instances of Democrat AstroTurf, to numerous to estimate. Politically motivated firings by executive privilege. The left went nuts when George Bush fired 3 Federal Prosecutors. Even though, these people serve at the pleasure of the President, and he was able to produce letters written by each of them in which they stated that they had no intentions of performing their duties to the standards set forth by their boss, the President, it was called cynical. On his first day in office, Bill Clinton fired every federal prosecutor, and issued a statement that essentially called them all crooked. I am still waiting for any sort of a comment or even a blurb to be reported on this.
About 6 months ago, I started noticing stories about the wife of Justice Clearance Thomas. She is a career woman who works for the Heritage Foundation. The Heritage Foundation is a political and economic think tank with a conservative bent. They also pride themselves on the accuracy of their facts. They researched the Obamacare Law, and reported on some factual discrepancies. They also editorialized against it. On this flimsy basis, Democrats began screaming about Justice Thomas’ possible role in the SCOTUS decision regarding the eventual Obamacare arguments in front of the court. After all, if his wife works for people who are against it, how could he possibly remain impartial? Something happened two days ago which made this preposterous stance all too clear.
As it turns out, there is real evidence now that Elena Kagan, the newest member of the court, was the person responsible for developing the White House’s legal defense for this Law. Some points of interest here. Kagan was asked about this very thing while giving testimony during her confirmation hearings. She flat out lied about it. Elena Kagan is not supposed to be a politician who lies with such ease and the low expectations that come with being a professional campaigner. She is supposed to be representative of the highest court in the land, and an example of unimpeachable integrity. Kagan also stated that she would not recuse herself from the case, when it eventually makes its inevitable trip to the court.
That this Law would eventually be headed, as it is, to the Supreme Court was never in doubt. Obama had the chance to pick a vote which would go his way, regardless of all other factors. He had the chance to pick the very person for the court who wrote the argument she will now listen to and adjudicate. This is beyond cynical, it is outright criminal. Lying to Congress is also a criminal act. I am still waiting for the slightest reaction from the main stream media on these facts. When elected, President Obama promised, “to pick people for the court who would use their empathy to determine social justice as well as legal justice. ” It is a shame he refused to use actual knowledge of the Constitution or a personal integrity standard for his criteria. An officer of the highest court in the land is now a felon, as is the President of the United States. (Obama is also included in the felons club for his role in Pigford.)
