2.24.12: CoffeePartyUSA Rally @ Supreme Court (video): overturn Citizens Un
2012-02-24 17:07:00
Fewer than 300 people turned up at the CoffeePartyUSA Rally, several groups were represented including Boomers For Democracy ('enough is enough'!), and here you see former congressman and current President/CEO of Common Cause, Bob Edgar, speaking on our extreme need to overturn the globalism-boosting monstrosity known as Citizens United which has led to massive funding of political campaigns by SuperPACs with no public disclosure of the identities lurking behind the billions.Now foreign entities meddling in US politics isn't new, of course, and earlier US presidents fought against it vociferously for they understood its dangers--yet thanks to SCOTUS 2010 and Justice John Roberts, the practice has now been placed on steroids in Campaign 2012. Is the Silent Coup of America basically a fait accompli?To me it seems that the Supreme Court decision of January 2010 was a court overreach shoved onto the American people as if corporations and political ideologues needed help tipping the S...

Indiana Supreme Court Eviscerates U.S. Constitution
2011-05-16 19:30:00
-By Warner Todd Huston Indiana's highest court has turned against our rights and the Constitution of the United States. The Supreme Court of Indiana has just decided that the Fourth Amendment of the U.S. Constitution does not apply to the citizens of Indiana. The court has decided that Hoosiers have no right to be safe in their own homes from illegal entry, search, and seizure by police. Indiana's highest court has just said that Hoosier stormtroopers can invade any home at ay time and citizens have no right to resist because it is "against public policy."

Supreme Court Justice Breyer: Founders Were For Restricting Guns... Why Bre
2010-12-14 20:00:00
-By Warner Todd Huston On Fox News Sunday, Supreme Court Justice Stephen Breyer spoke of his dissenting decisions in the several Second Amendment cases that he heard as a Justice. He told host Chris Wallace that he thought that James Madison only included the Second Amendment in the Bill of Rights as a sop to the states and Breyer insisted that historians agreed. In essence, Breyer was saying that Madison was not interested in an individual's right to gun ownership and self-protection and for that reason his dissenting opinions against that individual right accorded well with what the founder's thought on the issue. But Breyer's assumption that a citizen's right to bear arms is not sacrosanct and his following contention...

Veteran political activist/journalist Mark Allen, founder & President of The Black Leadership Development Institute, BLDI, says that he will seek clarity from The Chicago & State Election Boards as well as those familiar witrh election law on a Supreme Court ruling (see attached section 2) which seems to state that it's a violation of a provision of the 14th Amendment to require Independent Political Parties or candidates to be required to obtain 25,000 petition signatures to get on the ballot. Allen says that there must be some later ruling after this to explain why the current Independent candidacies of William "Dock" Walls and Scott Lee Cohen for Illinois Governor are now circulating petitions to obtain 25,000 signatures in order to be on the upcoming...
Is Elena Kagan the Right Pick for the Supreme Court?
2010-05-18 15:00:00
The above question is one I've been trying to answer ever since President Obama nominated Kagan to replace Supreme Court Justice John Paul Stevens.Almost never confused with Led Zeppelin's John Paul Jones. Almost.After much deliberation regarding her positions, qualifications and overall "Supreme Courtness" I have come to the following answer: "I think so"The problem of analyzing Kagan's nomination is that there isn't really a strict set of requirements or qualifications for the Supreme Court. In fact, the President's power to appoint Supreme Court Justices is written in such an throwaway manner that you get the impression that the framers of the Constitution didn't think the whole thing was a big deal.In Article II, Section 2, they wrote the following regarding...

Gov Christie to NJ Supreme Court Justice: You're Fired!
2010-05-04 19:41:00
-By Warner Todd Huston My favorite sentiment about the U.S. Supreme Court is from that rascal President Andrew Jackson. In 1832 the U.S. Supreme Court issued a decision in Worcester v. Georgia that Old Hickory wasn't too happy with. In reply he is famous for the sentiment that the Court made its decision and proposed that "now let them enforce it."* Would that we had more Andrew Jacksons. Well, perhaps we do have at least one. I nominate Governor Chris Christie for the Andrew Jackson award for 2010 because Christie is taking an extremely unusual measure for this day and age. He's firing one of New Jersey's Supreme Court Justices and appointing one of his own, one that will...
