Actually, this is a case of the "give 'em enough rope" aspect of our First Amendment. The Justice's comments gave conservative/Republican fund-raisers a decade worth of sound bites.

I've been praying for years now that the enemies of America would fall into the traps they themselves have set. It worked with Haman:
"A gallows seventy-five feet high stands by Haman's house. He had it made for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the king." The king said, "Hang him on it!" So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai.

I am seeing it happen more and more every day, praise the Lord.

"The voluntary support of laws, formed by persons of their own choice, distinguishes peculiarly the minds capable of self-government. The contrary spirit is anarchy, which of necessity produces despotism." --Thomas Jefferson

Well if you agree with Libertarian principles--and you have certainly quoted the most celebrated American Libertarian--why would you make the ridiculous statement that you did in fact make, comparing Libertarians to their exact opposites, the Communists?

Incidentally, no reasonable person has ever accused Mrs. Justice Ginsberg of being a Libertarian; and the statement with which this thread is concerned, is about as unlibertarian as it is unconservative, unethical and immoral. It can only be justified or understood in terms of the far Left's commitment to promote their ends by any means available.

This malfeasance should be looked into with an eye towards the possible impeachment of Ginsburg and her judicial co-travellers....

What would you do? Post sex police in bedrooms to monitor behavior to enforce your belief? Or require all bedrooms in America to be equipped with cameras to monitor sexual behaviors to enforce your belief? What about the right to privacy? Just how far would you go to enforce your beliefs?

If you don't believe folks have a right to privacy you are in the wrong nation.

I believe the behavior wrong and immoral. But I am also reasonable enough to realize any law preventing it is not only unreasonalbe but unenforceable without having my own right to privacy violated.

Are you telling me you all the sex police or monitors in your own bedroom?

Did you live in the deep backwoods? Have you ever visited a major city? In my neck of the woods we have about every imaginable nationality represented in some number or another.

In my neck of the woods we have about 15 mosques. The bulk of the labor force is comprised immigrant Mexicans. The Canadians flock thru here enmasse in route to Flordia. I can go to any one of hundreds of Chinese, Tai, Jamaican, Mexican, Vietnamese, etc etc restaurants owned and operated by immigrants. My dentist is from Peru and my medical doctor is from India. Oh yea, it's a little late Roscoe. To believe othewise is thinking small.

What does that have to do with the Libertarian/Socialist dream of open borders and unrestricted immigration?

Our RATIFIED Constitution should restrict all rulings. Otherwise impeach and remove the rogue blackrobes corrupting our body of law.

Who would have thought Arlen McSpectre's affinity for Scottish criminal law in presidential impeachment removal from office might qualify him for SCOTUS.

Blackrobes' terms of office for "good behavior" means while obeying the Law of the Land.

Our nation is ruled by agenda driven, utopian socialist scoundrels with arrogant disregard for our inconvenient RATIFIED Constitutional Rule of Law.

Ex-ACLU Ginsie wants to lower the "age of sexual consent" to 12. Girls just want to have fun.

"Ruth Bader Ginsburg, ...deserves to be impeached, convicted, and removed from office because she obviously has not read nor believed in the Constitution under which she supposedly ought to adjudicate "

Rush was just talking about this. Obviously a direct violation of her oath to uphold US Constitutional law. SCOTUS judges are only there on "good behavior". IMPEACH AND REMOVE!!

Like I said, don't play the ignorance card with me. Pretending you don't recall the extensive debate on this forum at the time of the ruling is simply not credible.

I'm through wasting time with you. This will be my last post on the matter, at least as far as this thread is concerned. We both know what was said. Good bye!
