"the “rebranding” of the Republican Party. "

Isn't rebranding illegal, as in rustling?

‘If “rebranding” is all that the Republicans do, it will be a fraud. It will fail. It will deserve to fail. And, the nation will be the worse for the lack of any competent opposition to present trends in the US government.’

I wish I had said that!

If the Obama Administration continues on their path to destroy the Constitution. There is no “United” in United States of America.

Labels and forms will remain, but in reality the US will be nothing more than ... a tin pot dictatorship with a meaningless constitution.

It's there already.

America -- a great idea, didn't last. Too many did too little for too long.

Nice column as always, John.

It is the fundamental theory of American government, as embodied in the Constitution, that it is the business of Congress, not the courts to write or rewrite the laws.

What's truly frightening, is I didn't understand this concept until I graduated college and did a lot of learning on my own.

Unfortunately, the vast majority of folks today would rather spend that time watching Dancing with the Millionaires, than read up on history and our Founding Concepts. They can't imagine what's wrong with a "nice, smart, empathetic" judge changing laws so that the outcome makes people feel warm and fuzzy.

We all know that education and journalism are ultimately the problem. If the courts turn completely as well . . .
