America has problems, but America is NOT THE PROBLEM!~
Time for LAW to RULE
Published on May 16, 2007 By Moderateman In Current Events

 For decades The Supreme Court has denied Justice to Millions of Americans.

Justices David Souter and John Paul Stevens were appointed by Republican Presidents who falsely believed they were both champions of justice for ALL Americans. However, once on the Bench of SCOTUS, they both, almost immediately, sided with the liberal faction on some very key issues.

In case after case, SCOTUS has handed down decisions that MOST Americans are very disturbed with.

In 1973 the court "discovered" a "right to privacy" which made abortion legal through out the country. and would lead America into Roe V Wade. During the thirty four years that Roe v Wade has been law some 45 million babies have been MURDERED in the womb, that's  One million 323 thousand 529 babies SLAUGHTERED EACH YEAR.That's 3 THOUSAND 626 CHILDREN destroyed each and every day.  More than we have lost in the entire Iraqi war so far, Shocking numbers considering in four years at war we have lost 3,500 people and THAT SOMEHOW enrages us. I think out values are mixed up.

In the year 2000 SCOTUS banned VOLUNTARY prayer in schools, that decision has led to prayer being banned even to after school functions, such as graduation and sporting events. Thus interfering with the first amendment, which states, in part that "Congress shall make no law respecting the establishment of religion or prohibiting the free exercise thereof..."

In 2003 SCOTUS AGAIN " DISCOVERED"  a RIGHT in the constitution for homosexuals to commit SODOMY, this decision opened the door wide for homosexuals to start campaigning for "SAME SEX MARRIAGE"

I believe with Sandra day O'Connor gone and the conservative Samuel Alito in her place maybe some of these "DISCOVERED NEW LAWS" THAT have been Legislated from the bench by a Liberal court, just might be corrected.

NO MORE LEGISLATING FROM THE SCOTUS BENCH! No more "DISCOVERIES"! Read law, put it into practice.

Prayer isn't banned in schools; it just can't be led by staff.

Abortion happened before it was legal. It's just safer now.

Right to sodomy? LOL. I will have to do some googling to figure out what you're tlaking about. We all commit sodomy.

yes it is, at least here in the 48.

Not 36 thousand a day, not even close.

Why yes, yes we do, but do you announce it for all the world to know?

I will re-check this because I'm pretty sure I'm right. Haha.

I'm sure you're right. I don't really consider very early abortion to be abortion. Many forms of BC do the same thing.

Yes. LOL.

Prayer is still allowed:

* "at any time before, during or after the school-day," as long as your prayers do not interfere with other students.
* In meetings of organized prayer or worship groups, either informally or as a formal school organization -- IF -- other student clubs are also allowed at the school.
* Before eating a meal at school -- as long as the prayer does not disturb other students.
* In some states, student-led prayers or invocations are still delivered at graduations due to lower court rulings. However, the Supreme Court's ruling of June 19, 2000 may bring this practice to an end.
* Some states provide for a daily "moment of silence" to be observed as long as students are not encouraged to "pray" during the silent period.

Besides, nothing is going to stop a kid from praying all day every day. A child who is a firm believer in his or her faith will continue to pray in a sincere manner without causing a big stir because it will be about personal belief, not being a crusading show off.

I think you need to check your numbers. I found a statistic of 3,542 per day. I think there is an extra zero there. Not that 3600 abortions a day isn't a tragedy. I don't think abortion should be illegal but I think it is a shame in a country where birth control is cheap and easily available to have so many unwanted pregnancies.

I don't think there should be prayer in public school and I have no problem with gay marriage.

I do have to agree that the Supreme Court is probably a Presidents longest lasting legacy since they serve a lifetime appointment.

It was probably a typo. I just thought it seemed incredibly high.

The school prayer issue and church and state in general have gotten much more cloudy over the last 25 (give or take) years.

The issue on the 10 commandments tablet that existed in the Alabama Supreme Court area and had to be removed wouldn't have happened 30 - 40 years ago, but with the newer court and the rulings they have made that have turned some basic understanding of the roles of government in our life, and the right for government *to interfere* in the name of non-interference things have have gotten pretty screwed up.

I would dearly love to see that area revisited and hope that is visited soon, along with issues such as "Under God" being in the Pledge of Allegiance.

On the abortion issue I have to pull out the old 'while I personally abhor abortion, I don't feel it is my place to mandate what a woman can or cannot do' (which I would continue with 'within reason....'  where reason = common sensical things).  I don't like abortion, I wish that it wasn't used so much in this country, and really wish it wasn't used as a way to make up for what someone determines later was a mistake.  I also really wish that *my tax money* didn't go to the cost of so many abortions, and would be the mean ol' S.O.B. that tells many women that their right to free abortions ends after the first (unless their life was in danger for medical reasons) and that the second one they asked for would come with free sterilization.

On the rights to privacy that would supposedly cover what many people refer to as deviant behavior for the most part I don't want the government in my bedroom or the bedroom of any one else.  I don't think we'd have that big a problem in that area if some individuals and some groups weren't constantly pushing the line, continuing to push for more and more 'rights' and more and more recognition.  Want to be recognized?  Recognize my right not to have you in my face.  What you do in the privacy of your own domicile -- provided you aren't otherwise breaking laws by raping, murdering, preying on underaged individuals, etc. -- isn't really my concern until you start advertising it all over the place and pushing me to accept that your behavior is supposedly normal.  If you push and push then sorry, I'm going the opposite direction and yes, I probably would support bans on certain behavior just so I don't have to hear about it.  And yes, I probably would continue to deny you the right to be legally recognized in the contract of marriage for the same reason.

I've said before that I think gay people have every right to be married.  Why should straight individuals have to be the only ones suffering with a spouse?   Gay people should be able to enjoy the misery of marriage just like everyone else.

boy has it!!! but the exceptions are for Muslims, now they are allowed to pray whatever number it is even while in school.. out come the prayer rugs and nobody better try and stop them. But Christians on the other hand better not even mutter GOD in school.

wish that it wasn't used so much in this country, and really wish it wasn't used as a way to make up for what someone determines later was a mistake.

When the woman asks what sex the child is before aborting, that is proof abortions are bei9ng used as convenience not some life threatening situation.

I do not believe that gays should be allowed to marry.... civil unions are fine with me. They should have all the same rights as maried couples, except to be able to use the term married.

Just a question for ya, Elie . . . what difference does it make, if the rights are the exact same, whether they use the word "married" or not?

Abortion - The right to privacy. Then why does the other 50% of the nation not have the same right (Drug use????). Actually, the ONLY right to privacy that the Supreme court has ever "found" when talking about the human body is Abortion.  All other "right to privacy" issues have been upheld when the laws were passed.

It is a personal choice I make due to thousands of years of tradition. Marriage has always been between a man and a woman.

That's a real good point doc. Where is my right to fill my body with drugs I want, after all the Government already lets me use tobacco a deadly drug {if I chose to} and booze {another deadly drug If I chose}

Why not pot? Cocaine? Heroin? Meth?

I think Roe V Wade will be overturned and it will become states that decide if they allow the continues murder of the unborn babies for no sound reason.

I can understand abortion for the victims of RAPE, orif the future mother is a minor, or the mothers life is at risk, but other wise abortion has just gone to far.

151 babies murdered an hour in America that boils down to 2 and 1/2 child a minute, right now as you have read this reply at least one baby was slaughtered in the womb, with no say so if it lives or dies.
