A judge who rules according to the constitution and adheres to our founding fathers’ intent is labeled “right-wing” which in my view is unfair but nonetheless, those on the left think of it that way. A judge on the “left” feel the constitution is a “living” document, that the founders were writing for the times in which they lived but knew that future members of the court would have to interpret the law for the times in which they were living.
I am an originalist and believe the constitution should be strictly adhered to because our founders knew that politicians have a bent for accruing power and the Supreme Court was necessary to maintain allegiance to the original intent of the document they wrote, which is limiting the ability of those in government from gaining too much power.
Anti-constitutionalists want to abolish the constitution that we were given and replace it with one that is in constant change and flux to facilitate the whims of the state. The living translation idea does give some room for the state to exact that end and indeed the left are suggesting diluting the court with many more judges which would make it even harder than it is now for the population to deal with the rulings of rogue judges.
The old saying, “if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it” is a good rule to go by.

I think if anyone was guilty of giving people the COVID, it would be the governor of New York putting affected people in nursing homes. Being the average age of death is past 80, it is not universally as deadly as is reported. Hard to believe but old people are susceptible to death from everything.

So, although many older citizens die of COVID intermingled with other diseases, it doesn’t mean the rest of the population must give up living. The destruction of our economy (which many have determined to be of little importance) is resulting in the death of millions worldwide and sentencing millions to a desperate life of hunger.

The COVID PANIC was seen by authoritarian leaders as a chance to grow their power and control over constituents just as happened after 9–11. After that event the whole population was deemed untrustworthy, guilty first, innocent later, maybe. After COVID struck the Bill of Rights evaporated before our eyes and millions support the new normal and the endless need to monitor every citizen. The forced vaccine can’t be far down the line. The last remnant of freedom, physical money, will be removed for our “safety”. It’s dirty you know.

The pandemic is horrible but has been effectively used to push us in the direction of an all-powerful state ruled by corrupt men. The public is ignorant and encouraged by their betters to stay that way. And so the war begins.

Jesus said we didn’t need much faith to accomplish the will of God, to live the Christian life. We know that mustard seeds are small, smaller than most seeds and Jesus said all we need is that small amount of faith. Faith is what grows the kingdom of God. So if you don’t need much faith, how does the kingdom grow?

Like any seed, the place where it’s planted must be watered, weeded, nurtured. It takes many days for the seed to sprout and the secret ingredient to growing the plant is simply believing that seed will grow. Before you plant and go to all that work you must believe it will grow.

If we work diligently, it will sprout which in turn helps our belief grow. Eventually, we may have sown many seeds and have an immense crop. It is then we can expect God to do the impossible.

Attempting to do the impossible requires belief. Belief starts with the first seed planted. Unbelief stems from giving up before we see the increase. If prayer isn’t answered the first time, do it again, and again, and again…….

A quote or two from Ruth: “I said on the equality side of it, that it is essential to a woman’s equality with man that she be the decision-maker, that her choice be controlling.” In other words, a father should have no say in the murder of his child.

“It won’t happen. It would be an impossible dream. But I’d love to see “Citizens United” overruled.” This ruling gave the people who paid the most in taxes a voice in who our elected criminals are. Freedom of speech has been under assault for years. Ruth was an accomplice in the fight to destroy the first amendment to our constitution.

Donald Trump has said he will nominate a woman to fill her shoes. It would be a wise move to nominate Barbara Lagoa. In my view, it would be best to nominate in the week or ten days prior to the election as nominating a woman of Hispanic or Latino roots would be bound to throw many in that community who are on the fence to vote for Trump.

This will be a test of how much Donald Trump has learned about the political landscape that is Washington D.C. As I write this (September 22), he hasn’t as yet named anyone. Lagoa is the only logical choice; here’s hoping he makes it.

I’ve always thought of Dr. Phil as being similar to Jerry Springer but having the credentials of a P.H.D. He filled a void in the reality TV market because white women couldn’t stomach the out-of-control behavior of guests on Springer’s show and other shows like his.

Sometimes people have similar problems as those who appear on his program, but much of it is simply the airing of the dirtiest of laundry in front of the whole world. It’s entertaining gossip for the most part. My wife and I have actually known a couple of the guests that have appeared on the show. I’m hoping that was just a freaky coincidence. Yes, Dr. Schill has been on a lot in our home as my wife, how should I say it, enjoys watching it. Many of his viewers are nice people and so I’m not belittling anyone for viewing it and indeed there is the desire Phil can rescue them from themselves.

Today I came home and the old snake oil salesman was on. The good doc had a discussion going on masks, BLM, and the use of the word Karen. I’m sure he is well prepared for each episode. If that is true, I’ve lost whatever respect I had for him. The whole show was an assault on American values and openly pandering to the Marxist thug culture. How? What did the snake say?

He added his support to the notion that black men are hunted down and shot. He also allowed his guest to put forth the lie of white privilege. If there were white privilege, it’s all gone. My daughter went to school. She applied for help with tuition. Nope. You must be a minority or a single mother. My son applies for work. Ditto. So, everyone hates whites, especially white males. We’ve got programs up the wahzoo for blacks, minorities, and single mothers.

But blacks aren’t interested in living a productive life. What whites did was start a country with certain unalienable rights and that resulted in something more precious than the color of your skin. We’re prosperous because of American privilege. That is the real privilege. Being born in America is how you win the lottery. But being diligent, hard-working, and honest, among other things, is considered by BLM types as things they won’t do because that is somehow white privilege. They just don’t want to be an Uncle Tom.

BLM is a Marxist group and many people support it simply because they like the slogan. If you go to their website you’ll find what they believe and what their goals are. They are thugs. The only black lives that matter is violent criminals that our police have to deal with. Floyd was a violent criminal. On getting out of his car he swallowed the drugs to hide them from the police just as he had done on a previous arrest.

He claimed he was having trouble breathing when he exited his car. Fentanyl was the drug he stupidly swallowed and breathing problems are one of the problems with taking it. Floyd was nothing more than another criminal drug addict we’ve raised to sainthood.

So, Dr. Schill is just another in a long list of American citizens that disappoint me. Dr. Phil, like most of our betters, has joined the chorus singing the praises of those that are pushing us off the cliff to a sure dystopian nightmare.
