Petition HERE!

Dear friend,

I write you today in the hope that you can help President Bush get his highly qualified nominees confirmed as federal judges.

My name is Gary Marx, and I run an organization called the Judicial Confirmation Network.

Last year I traveled across the country organizing citizens like you on behalf of the Bush-Cheney campaign. In every state, at every stop, I heard from people concerned about what run-a-muck judges were doing to our country. Many of them told me it was the number one reason they were voting for President Bush - because he had pledged to nominate only highly qualified individuals who knew that the proper role of a judge is to apply the law - not make up the law and impose his or her own political agenda on the people. When judges do that, they are disenfranchising all voters and robbing the people of the right to self government.

There was also great concern expressed to me over the fact that liberal special interest groups were working with certain Senators - like Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton - to keep the Senate from even voting on many of President Bush's nominees.

In November, the people spoke, and spoke loudly about who should be picking judges. And the winner was not the ACLU, nor John Kerry, nor Ted Kennedy, nor Hillary Clinton.

But the liberal extremist groups - who cannot win at the ballot box, and whose agenda is repeatedly rejected by the voters and a majority of our elected officials - know that if they can keep good judges off the bench they still have a chance to win in court what they can't win through the democratic process. How many more times must we see the ACLU walk off with another kooky court victory on an issue that the voters would never deliver to them?

Whether it is their attempt to take the word "God" out of the Pledge of Allegiance and the Ten Commandments out of the public square, protect the "rights" of child pornographers, or impose same sex marriage on the citizens of every state, the liberal extremists must count on their court allies.

You can help stop them.

If we are to protect the rights of all Americans, preserve the rule of law, and the right of the people to govern ourselves - we must continue to put good judges on the bench.

Right now, Senators who agree with the liberal extremist groups are a minority in the Senate. But they have been using an unprecedented procedural maneuver called the "filibuster" to prevent many of President Bush's nominees from even getting a vote by the full Senate. Using the filibuster, they only need 41 Senators to stop a nominee. They have turned the Constitution on its head - the minority rules - and you lose.

These Senators are failing to do the one thing that every one of their constituents expects them to do. Vote! They are refusing to do their constitutional duty in their "advise and consent" role in the appointment of judges.

The only thing that will get these Senators to do their duty is if they hear loud and strong from enough of us.

That is why I started the Judicial Confirmation Network. And that is why I am asking for your help today.

The JCN has started a petition drive to stop the obstruction and call on Senators to do their duty and vote on every nominee.

On our website we have a petition that I hope you will consider signing. We will do the work of collecting all the names and presenting the petition to the appropriate Senators. We just need you to put your name on the petition.

On our website you will also find other information about the issue and different ways you can help this effort. Please take a look at www.judicialnetwork.com.

The battle lines have already been drawn in the war over these nominees. But the biggest battle is yet to come. If we can win the fight over these filibustered nominees - then we will be that much stronger when the next Supreme Court opening occurs. That may be the biggest confirmation battle ever.

The Judicial Confirmation Network will be in that fight with every last resource we can muster. I hope you will be with us.

Thank you for considering joining the fight.

God bless America,

Gary

AMEN. We ALL are in the fight, whether we are Patriot Activist FReepers--DUmmies--or serf hostages under the UN. Take your pick. But do it soon. The plans Hillary and her Activist Sludges have for you and your "Obsolete Constitution" are NOT pretty.

Doesn't anyone remember Clinton fireing all the federal judges and putting in his own guys. Why can't Bush do that?

Those were federal attorneys -- prosecutors -- and many of them were hot on the Cli'ton Gang's tails -- and had therefore to go.

And President Bush is not a mobster.

But the present issue is with the confirmations of judges that're being held up by unconstitutional obstruction and the organizers of this petition seek to make it harder for the obstruction to be effected and/or easier for the President to see to that the Senate advises upon and consents to his nominees.

As I recall, it was U.S. Attorneys that Bubba fired.
