Look at the heading.
Here's a bit from the body of the email I received:
They have removed the Stars and Stripes and replaced the banner with a BLACK strip with the quote. "The common law is the will of mankind, issuing from the life of the people"
This quote is from C Wilfred Jenks a Socialist, British citizen and big labor, world workers rights union supporter. In the 1930's he was a leading proponent of the international law movement including Sharia Law. His goal was to impose a global common law which backed global workers rights. Jenks was also appointed to the ILO delegation to the San Francisco conference which established the United Nations in 1945.
How interesting?
I must say it’s an appropriate change. given the present regime.
The Republican leadership is staying cool by not taking any drastic measures such as allowing a government shutdown over the budget for which a dumbed-down electorate may blame them.
So when David Gregory or aome other num-nut from the MSM asks a conservative pol, “Why do you think Obummer et al are commies?”, we can point to this as well as the Mao ornament, the WH aide who loves Mao, etc.
They make it SOOOO easy, why don’t we use this more?
At the Grimbeorn blog, the author said, “Common law (which is to say, the decisions of courts and precedents) has little to do with ‘Mankind’ or ‘the People,’ and everything to do with judges and lawyers. It is their will, in other words, insofar as it is ‘will’ instead of the interpretation of positive law. Insofar as it is ‘will’ in the judicial sense, American ‘common law’ should be entirely guided by our constitutional law.
It is the Constitution that is the expressed will of the People - not ‘Mankind,’ which includes a lot of folks who are not part of the American ‘We, the People.’”
