In light of the resulting drain on social services, increased crime, school crowding, and economic impact of illegal immigration, the time to end so-called “anchor babies” is long overdue. However, on his Aug. 4 program, liberal talk show host Bill Press became unhinged over U.S. Senators who questioned the modern interpretation of the 14th Amendment.

U.S. District Judge Susan Bolton blocked most of the new Arizona enforcement law from taking effect in what is being described as a victory for opponents (read pro-illegal immigration).
Arizona Gov. Brewer called Bolton’s decision halting the law “a bump in the road,” and her spokesman said they plan to appeal to the 9th U.S. Circuit [...]

Elena Kagan: Stealth Candidate and soon-to-be Judicial Activist

The media is fond of portraying any judicial candidate as “moderate” when nominated by a Democrat, yet always apply the “[very] conservative” label to any nominee from a Republican president. But as Brent Bozell correctly points out, “…before Sotomayor voted with the gun-controllers in the Chicago gun-rights case; before Sotomayor voted for allowing public universities [...]

Obama’s Supreme Court Nominees are Inexperienced With Life

When considering someone for the Supreme Court, Obama said he wanted a nominee who could “relate to the real world and how the law affects ordinary Americans.” He supposedly wanted a champion of the “little guy,” yet he nominates the exact opposite.
People with lives in academia and perpetual paychecks cannot understand “the little guy”, or [...]

If Obama Nominated Elena Kagan, Then Her Views Are No Mystery

The media is putting up a smokescreen with depicting Elena Kagan as a “moderate” or of “unclear ideology.” Some have even gone so far as to suggest she may be “conservative,” which is a bizarre claim considering who nominated her. Why else would Obama choose her if not for the fact that she shares most, [...]

Inside the Eric Holder Justice Department

Roger Kimball has written an excellent overview of the Eric Holder Justice Department, and one can reach no other conclusion other than the inmates have taken over the asylum. Everything from apologists for Islamic extremism to rabid anti-Americanism can be found in the backgrounds of the prominent players. It strains credulity to expect Holder to [...]

With the confirmation of Sonia Sotomayor to the Supreme Court, the media and president Obama are hailing it as something to celebrate. But the truth is, they are happy about another very liberal justice, not so much that she is Hispanic. First and foremost she is on the political left; her race matters very little [...]

Filed under Government, Judicial Tyranny, Legal, Second Amendment

In Maloney v. Cuomo, Sotomayor joined a three-judge panel concluding that the Second Amendment right to bear arms does not apply to the states through the Fourteenth Amendment. She also argued that the right to bear arms is not a “fundamental right.”
In a very brief opinion, she cites Presser v. Illinois as the basis for [...]

Sotomayor Confirmation Hearings: Behind the Mask

Filed under Government, Judicial Tyranny, Legal

Now that we’ve had some time to hear her statements and responses, we can safely surmise that she is being deceptive.
She tried to make excuses for her “wise Latina ” comment and downplay it. Just ask the simple question of whether or not a white male could have made a similar comment and got away [...]

The White House released this picture of Sotomayor in her Princeton yearbook quoting a leading socialist.
I am not a champion of lost causes, but of causes not yet won.
-Norman Thomas
Norman Thomas is also quoted as saying, “The American people will never knowingly adopt Socialism. But under the name of ‘liberalism’ they will adopt every fragment [...]
