It has been a few days since President Obama threatened the
United States Supreme Court. The most
disgusting aspect of his verbal abuse was that it was done in the presence of
two other world leaders. But really,
what do you expect from the Commissar-in-Chief ?
To put it in its proper perspective it was not only a threat
but a signal for the war to begin. The
war against the court. And of course it
was done exactly on purpose to signal to all the useful-idiots that they must
take action and start their salvos against the court.
Enter Maureen Dowd, right on cue! Her shameful op-ed piece appeared in the New
York Times on April 3, with the sexist title of Men in Black.
She said of the Supreme Court, "It is run by hacks
dressed up in black robes." Do you
think this type of characterization is appropriate for describing a co-equal
branch of government that provides checks and balances on the executive and
legislative branches?
The piece appeared to be an unintelligible rambling of an illiterate
fool. The column was full of venom and ad hominem
attacks for the Supreme Court justices, more specifically the conservatives
members. She stated, "...it was stunning to hear
Antonin Scalia talking like a Senate Whip..." and later described him as,
"...often venomous Scalia." In
her description of Chief Justice John Roberts she said, "...he's a crimson
partisan..." and also noted that Justice Alito was, "...the
insufferable Samuel Alito..." And
she also commented that, "Inexplicably mute 20 years after he lied his way
onto the court, Clarence Thomas..."
A jewel of her mindless diatribe was stating that in 2000, the
court had, "...helped to purloin the election for W...." whom she goes on to slam for invading Iraq and
ignoring Katrina. If all else fails and
you have no cogent argument, attack George Bush. How typical and how predictable.
The arrogance and condescension that President Obama
exhibited for the Supreme Court was surpassed by Ms. Dowd's op-ed piece.
I would have thought that a president, lawyer, college
professor or writer would have more respect and reverence for the constitutional
responsibilities of the Supreme Court.
The framers of the Constitution and authors of the Bill of
Rights were intelligent and visionary men.
They produced a document that was timeless yet flexible.
It is a national disgrace that some very high profile people
have forgotten this. How sad, how very sad.
