Subverting the Constitution
American Thinker, by Thomas Lifson

Original Article

Posted By:magnante, 12/31/2012 10:26:42 AM

Another line is being crossed in the campaign to fundamentally change America. The Left has long regarded the American Constitution as an obstacle to the sort of fundamental change it desires, and now the seeds of delegitimizing the Constitution itself are being planted by powerful members of the progressive establishment. Louis Michael Seidman, Carmack Waterhouse Professor of Constitutional Law at Georgetown University, is no fringe figure. He is a pillar of the left wing legal establishment, graduate of Harvard Law, former clerk for Thurgood Marshall, and notable figure in the Leftist "critical legal theory" movement.

What Constitution? It used to allow prayer in schools, and now forbids it. The Constitution as originally created no longer exists thanks to the Atheist Communist Lawyers´ Union (ACLU.)

I move we start by tossing out NY Times v Sullivan so we can sue the pants off of Big Journalism for negligence.

And then there is this:

"Americans value their children, their safety, and the right to pursue their dreams without fear -- and those "common values" trump the rights set forth in the U.S. Constitution, Education Secretary Arne Duncan said last Friday in a speech at a Washington, D.C., elementary school.

It was my belief that the Bill of Rights expresses our common values. But our Secretary of Education says I´m wrong.

It is interesting that for the radical left, the tactic is to ridicule the Constitution rather than amend it. This is because the things that they want to do- confiscate guns, regulate religious expression, penalize politically incorrect speech- would never gain support through the established legal process.

Led by Obama and his stormtroopers, they´ll push until they get pushed back. Hard. We´re headed for a showdown. It will neither be pretty nor bloodless. But we will win.

The vast majority of so-called law professors, lawyers and judges for the past decades have been educated and indoctinated in karl marx schools of law. Therfore, they feel it is their duty to do away with the U. S. Constitution and screw the American People. The same goes for the vast majority of so-called educators and journolists.

Dittos #6, #7, and #9. This could be avoided, however, if the so-called Conservative Justices on the Supreme Court took the cases where the Left is running rough-shod over the Constitution. Of course it might be a 4-5 vote since we don´t really know what Roberts would do. Kennedy is suspect, too, but he has made some statements during the Obama administration that gives me hope. Who would have thought that Roberts couldn´t be counted on?

I´m sure professor Seidman is a certifiable genius
and fully capable of running the US government,
the most powerful force the world has ever seen,
without any sort of controlling guide, limit, or law.

The question is
as always...
Will his grandson be?
When he is finished
dispensing his great wisdom
to us mere mortals,
to what angel does he think
he will pass the reins
of completely unlimited government?

It ain´t just prayer, #3, it´s any religious expression. The First Amendment has been radically changed from, "Congress shall make no law... prohibiting the free exercise of religion" to add the words "EXCEPT on public property."

If it takes a new Constitutional Convention, that Satanic "exemption" must be reversed to the original intent that prevailed Constitutionally for 200 years before Satan´s law firm, the ACLU, hoodwinked the US Suprmeme Court into denying to individual citizens that long-settled Liberty granted to us in the Bill of Rights.

What´s so interesting about 60 tea partiers protesting the IRS in San Jose, California on Tuesday, May 21st?

Lois Lerner, the head of the IRS operation that targeted Tea Party groups is being thrown under the bus by Obama. (snip) two Obama media operatives, both veterans of Journolist who were called into the White House yesterday for consultations, both called for her firing. The two are the Washington Post´s Ezra Klein and Josh Marshall of Talking Points Memorandum.

Remember president Obama´s first pitch of the MLB 2010 season at the Washington Nationals ballpark? It sailed towards the home team dugout. While he couldn´t throw a baseball within ten feet of home plate -- even if it took a double bounce on the way in -- Obama has tossed perfect incendiary strikes inside his own clubhouse, sending his entire team to the disabled list, demoted to the minor leagues, or banned from the game for life. In fact Obama´s entire liberal-progressive league has forfeited the rest of the season -- and then some.

Hey, liberals! Obama thinks you are stupid. Yeah, he really does. He knew Benghazi was terrorism before he didn´t know it was terrorism. Addressing a question about Benghazi in his press conference Monday, May 13, 2013, Obama´s "logic" really made an impression: "The Day after it happened I acknowledged that this was an act of terrorism." (snip) Leaving behind Obama´s initial certitude about Benghazi having been a terror attack, not only did he not know what had happened because it wasn´t clear

What person ever says what he really knows at a funeral? Eulogies bearing little or no resemblance to the deceased or to the facts are trotted out by people who are often bad actors, who though they know better, lie anyway. It´s almost acceptable behavior. But any truth about the deaths of U.S. Ambassador Christ Stevens and three other Americans appears to have been put six feet under as far as our current administration is concerned. (snip)Did they love Chris Stevens the way Brutus loved Caesar?

Somewhere, Andrew Breitbart is smiling. You can almost see the metaphorical light bulbs going on in bubbles over the heads of liberal media figures. Obama loyalists are expressing outrage at the subpoenaing of the phone records of 20 lines serving over a hundred AP reporters. The timing could not be better.(snip) the AP scandal´s significance entirely lies with its effect on the media´s mindset on Obama. They have been cheerleading for him for six years,

Philadelphia abortionist Kermit Gosnell was convicted yesterday on three counts of first-degree murder, not to mention a slew of other charges, including involuntary manslaughter (for the death of 41-year-old Karnamaya Mongar), infanticide, and abortions past Pennsylvania´s legal limit. (snip)in a culture dominated by the 24-hour news cycle, it will be easy for Americans to consider the abortion issue closed with the Gosnell verdict. The pro-life movement´s challenge, as [Lila] Rose says, is to keep the American people focused on how common Gosnell-like practices are in the abortion industry, and on all the unsung victims abortion

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.

House Oversight and Government Reform Committee Chairman Darrell Issa said embattled IRS official Lois Lerner waived her Fifth Amendment rights and will be hauled back to appear before his panel again. The California Republican said Lerner’s Fifth Amendment right to avoid self-incrimination was voided when she gave an opening statement this morning denying any wrongdoing and professing pride in her government service. “When I asked her her questions from the very beginning, I did so so she could assert her rights prior to any statement,” Issa told POLITICO. “She chose not to do so — so she waived.”

Is the worm turning against Barack Obama? After four-plus years of being given the benefit of the doubt by the bulk of the US media, the President now suddenly feels more vulnerable. Today both the New York Times and the Washington Post have run prominent and angry editorials and columns slamming the administration for its attempt to criminalise a Fox News reporter James Rosen for working a State Department source to obtain a story. The "Rosen Affair"--as it is now known--is poisoning the well in Washington at an alarming rate for Mr Obama, with an indignant White House press corps
