(Parenthetical mine)Democrats Have No One But Themselves, And Her, To Blame for The Ginsburg Vacancy
Derek Hunter

. . . The death of Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg has given the election even more urgency than it had before. . . . Democrats have made no mystery of their plans should they ever obtain power again, and it’s not good for fans of individual liberty, personal responsibility, or just being left … alone by the government. That’s why Republicans need to move quickly and deliberately to replace her.
So much of the progressive agenda is dependent upon twisting the plain language of the Constitution . . . to the point of unrecognizability. The only thing standing between them and getting their way is the whims of John Roberts. How terrifying is that? . . .
. . . Still in shock, Democrats are scrambling to find a way to block any nomination. They don’t have one. They changed the rules under the Obama administration (with “the nuclear option”) so they could stack liberals on the courts and their chickens have come home to roost. . . .
. . . But the situation isn’t reversed. This is the bed Democrats made, make them lie in it. . . .
. . . Ginsburg shouldn’t have stayed on the court for so long. . . .
. . . But Ginsburg believed her own press, and the left built a cult around her. Books were written about her, documentaries made, and even a Hollywood production with models playing her . . . And she acted accordingly. . . .
. . . Reports of her dying wish – that she not be replaced until after the election, in the hope of a Democrat being able to do it – showed who and what she really was. Threats of violence show who leftists really are. And that one Supreme Court Justice, any of them, should hold so much sway over the direction of the country shows how far we’ve fallen from the intent of our Founding Fathers…
…Replacing RBG with that is the antithesis of her is the best hope for preserving our liberties and the very concept of limited government. . . .
. . . While the worst thing leftists have going for them is their totalitarian instincts boiling to the top for everyone to see, the best thing they have going for them is spineless Republicans who campaign as conservatives and govern like Democrats. By moving a nomination now, it’ll force a few jelly-spines to harden.
Ultimately, Democrats created this situation for themselves, they deserve a big dose of their own medicine.
Democrats were already talking about getting rid of the filibuster to ram through their bills, packing the courts to ensure whatever they pass is ruled legal, and creating new states to solidify power in the Senate, why … shouldn’t we take them at their word? When someone tells you who they are, believe them…
when the GOP uses the rules the democrats wanted, certainly.So in this instance, you believe the end does justify the means?
That’s what I believe, and that’s the way it has been, until the recent spate of riots and mob rule. We should never capitulate to threats of violence.I think everyone on this Forum, and I hope most Americans, would agree that terrorism of any sort has no place in our country.
the blood of the innocent takes it out of the realm of “personal decision”. the government should protect the child and yes it will be/is a child from being murdered.The author speaks of limited government. How limited is government really when it tells a mother whether or not she can bring her baby to term and tells people whom they are allowed to or not allowed to marry? These seem like awfully personal decisions to me.
What are you talking about here?How limited is government really when it tells a mother whether or not she can bring her baby to term . . .
There has been some of that and it is wrong.I also understand the intention of schools to instill in youth a move in the direction of tolerance so that those young people who are gay, bisexual, transgender, and intersex will one day no longer be the objects of hatred, violence, and death.
It is not OK to take a subset of people, andI am talking about the drive by some to make all abortion illegal in the United States. I am not talking about China and forced abortion, which I know little about, and which is just as immoral as eliminating a woman’s right to make her own decisions on a matter so personal to her. There is no limited government in either case.
