There are hearings on going in Washington D.C. that could change the landscape of our Nation for decades to come, and my fear is that many people do not even realize what is happening. I am speaking of course about the Senate confirmation hearings for potential U.S. Supreme Court Justice Elena Kagan.
I want everyone to understand the importance of these hearings. First, a U.S. Supreme Court Justice is a life-time appointment. Second, consider the fact that the U.S. Supreme Court is one of the three branches of the Federal Government (Executive, Legislative, and Judicial). To put this into mathematic terms, the U.S. Supreme Court is 1/3 of the Federal Government. There are 9 Justices on the U.S. Supreme Court, which could potentially make Elena Kagan could 1/9 of 1/3 of our Federal Government. To put it bluntly and in simple terms, a Supreme Court Justice appointment is a really, really, big deal.
Now, who is Elena Kagan? Elena Kagan is the current Solicitor General of the United States, and an admitted Progressive Democrat. Make no mistake about it, Progressive is just another term for Liberal. Elena Kagan is perhaps the most unqualified candidate to ever be nominated to serve as a U.S. Supreme Court Justice. Elena Kagan has never served as a Judge, and prior to being appointed by Barack Hussein Obama as Solicitor General, had never even argued a case in a court of law.
I know that some left-wing liberal loon will read this, and instantly proclaim that I am ignorant of the law because everyone knows that a U.S. Supreme Court Justice is not required to have judicial experience, or for that fact, even be a lawyer. Of course, I do realize that Elena Kagan is not prohibited from serving because of her lack of real life experience on the bench, but, I prefer that anyone that is nominated for such an important position have such a background. The reason I prefer judicial experience for a U.S. Supreme Court nominee is simple. I prefer to have a nominee with a long history of decisions that we can look at to determine where they stand in relation to their interpretation of the law and of our Constitution.
Ask yourself this, why would someone like Elena Kagan be nominated to be 1/9 of 1/3 of our Federal Government. Out of the thousands of State and Federal Judges in this Nation, why would Elena Kagan be chosen for this position? How could Elena Kagan be more qualified to serve as a U.S. Supreme Court Justice over the thousands of Judges who actually have judicial experience? The answer is quite simple, Elana Kagan is Barack Hussein Obama's friend. Elena Kagan will be a rubber stamp for Obama's liberal agenda. Elena Kagan will never go against any Obama policy.
Elena Kagan and Barack Obama go back to the early 1990's, when both worked at the University of Chicago Law School, and both also were connected at the Harvard Law School. For anyone that has been living under a rock for the last several months, Elena Kagan previously served as the Dean of Harvard's Law School. By the way, Elena Kagan was appointed to Dean of Harvard’s Law School by Larry Summers, the current Director of the White House’s National Economic Council. Larry Summers is Barack Obama’s right hand man when it comes to economic policy. During her tenure at Harvard, Kagan attempted to ban Military Recruiters from Harvard. Speaking of the University of Chicago Law School and the Harvard Law School, let's not forget another person with a connection ties to both, that being Cass Sunstein, who happens to be Obama's Regulatory Czar. Cass Sunstein's views are so radical, that he actually believes that animals should have the right to file lawsuits against people. I know one thing, this administration has not given me any confidence in Harvard educated intellectuals running our Nation.
To say that the Senate confirmation hearing for nominee Elena Kagan has been frustrating is an understatement at best. It is frustrating to watch Elena Kagan dodge legitimate questions, and talk in circles. Of course it does not matter what Elena Kagan actually says during the hearing, since most of the RINO Republicans are rolling over and playing dead for the Democrats. I have been outraged by the clown-like behavior of the idiot Lindsey Graham (R-SC), who sits there and laughs like a buffoon. Speaking of clowns at the Senate hearing, the Idiot from Minnesota known as Al Franken (Democrat) was caught sleeping and doodling while Elena Kagan was speaking. There are some exceptions though like the Honorable Tom Coburn (R-OK), and the Honorable Jeff Sessions (R-AL), both of whom are doing their best to expose Elena Kagan’s liberal ideology.
Some people will say that Kagan’s appointment does not matter since she would only be replacing the retired Liberal Justice John Paul Stevens. With an appointment of Elena Kagan to the Supreme Court, there would still be five Conservative-Moderate Justices, and four Liberal Justices. Here is the problem though, what happens if one of the five Conservative-Moderate Justices decide to retire while Obama is still in the White House? What if god forbid, something happened to one of the five Conservative-Moderate Justices that rendered them unable to serve on the Supreme Court. The thought of Obama being able to completely take over the Supreme Court through one more Liberal Justice appointment is frightening. Make no mistake, many important Supreme Court rulings have ended up with a 5-4 margin. One example of this was the recent historic Second Amendment case McDonald v. Chicago, in which the Supreme Court correctly ruled in by a 5-4 margin that individuals have a right to bear arms.
In the 5-4 ruling on McDonald v. Chicago, it was the five Conservative-Moderate Justices in favor of our rights, and it was the four liberal judges who voted to disarm the American people. Of the four liberal Judges who voted against the Second Amendment, one of them was Obama’s first appointee to the court, Sonia Sotomayor. Incidentally, during her Senate confirmation hearing, Sonia Sotomayor stated that she supported the Court’s decision in the Second Amendment case District of Columbia v. Heller. The Heller case was almost identical to the McDonald v. Chicago case. So what changed? Why did Sonia Sotomayor tell the Senate during her confirmation hearing that she supported the Heller decision, yet in an almost identical case, she went against it? The answer is simple, Sonia Sotomayor is a liberal political activist, as is Elena Kagan. The fact is, Sotomayor and Kagan both know that once appointed to the U.S. Supreme Court, they are no longer accountable to anyone.
In my opinion, any Republican who casts a vote in favor of Elena Kagan to the U.S. Supreme Court should resign in shame. Anyone who knows anything about Elena Kagan, and still supports her for the Supreme Court is not a supporter of the Constitution or freedom. Elena Kagan is a liberal activist, and would be yet another political operative placed inside the Federal Government to uphold and support the Obama agenda.
At some point in the near future, there will be a Constitutional challenge to the individual mandate portions of the Obama-Care Bill. Does anyone truly believe that Elena Kagan would be able to put her friendship and political loyalty aside, and make a ruling on such a challenge in an objective manner?
The Liberals have already hijacked the White House and both houses of the Congress. We simply cannot allow for the Liberals to hijack the Supreme Court, for if we do, freedom is going to give way to tyranny.
