In the next few days, the Senate will confirm a racist, social engineer to become a member of the United States Supreme Court. Though she denied it during her sworn testimony before the Senate, the trail of her history on the Appeals Court betray her to be an 'activist judge'.
What is an 'Activist Judge'?
For starters, an activist judge is much smarter than you or I. They know what is best, and see it as their responsibity to use the power of their role and position to achieve their personal aims, regardless of what the Framers of the Constitution actually intended, regardless of laws that Congress passes, and regardless of what the people have voted on.
An activist judge is a judge who can find rights and meanings in the Consititution and laws that are not actually written there, and one who can fail to find rights, limitations and meanings that are cenumerated and learly spelled out.
An activist judge is a judge who 'makes law' from the bench. The activist judge is an un-elected super judical legislative functionary who believes that they are enpowered to shape society as they see fit; a super-judicial legislative functionary to solve our problems for us and who is appointed for life.
A activist judge is a judge who doesn't see their mission as the persuit of equal justice all. A activist judge is an advocate for a point of view, and will use their position to advance that point of view regardless of the provisions of the Constitution and the actions Congress.
Now, we have an Activist Judge testifying in Confirmation hearings and about to become member of the United States Supreme Court.
The most damning thing about the Sotomoyor confirmation hearings is that she is lying under oath. It is obvious to everyone on both sides of the isle in the Senate. The good judge knows that her her radical judical history would, in the minds of most Americans, disqualify her for the Supreme Court. Honest and fair minded people want justice based on the facts and the law, and not on their skin color or ethnicity. Judge Sotomoyor knows this, otherwise she would not have denied racist and manipulative past in her testimony.
Her racist comment about a 'wise latina woman' making better decisions than a 'white man' would have disqualified anyone else. Anyone else would be run out of Washington, and probably lose their Appelate Court position. Can you imagine if a white man had said that a 'white man' would make better decisions that a 'wise latina woman'? Several years ago, Senator Trent Lott said nice things to a 90 year old retiring collegue, and was stripped of his Senate post by jackels screaming 'racist'. Where are the jackels now? They are about to confirm Judge Sotomoyor.
Call your Senator. Tell them to oppose this person. This woman isn't really a judge. A judge applies the law. She is an activist. Her interest isn't justice. It's advancing her particular ideology. Is that what we expect from a Supreme Court Judge, or even a municipal judge?
Apparently, justice depends on the color of your skin.
Welcome to The Imperial Court in Obama's World.
