Justice is Blind ! ! |
A fourth century B.C. noted
philosopher concluded that there were two truths. One was eternal truth, the other was temporal.
Eternal truth was the deep,
actual truth while temporal truth was a reflection of the eternal but was ever
changing somewhat like situation ethics.
There have been many
embellishments of this philosophy down to today and is still going on.
We find that some on the Supreme
Court view the Constitution of the United States in a like manner.
While they see the document as absolute, it is passé.
It must remain the rule of
law yet be considered a living document that can be interpreted as they see
fit.
The problem with this is it
allows them to actually make law instead of applying the law which is an
intrusion into the legislative branch of government.
When judges can make the law
(as we have seen happen in California )
it puts a price tag on judgments or in other words judgments for sale. It is a
kind of judicial Ebay.
Justices on the court are as hard
to get rid of as the itch and President Obama may be allowed to appoint one or
two more justices while he remains in office.
Because of his concept of
change I feel there is a real need for concern. This President considers
himself above the law and the Constitution subject to his interpretation.
At last we have one who is
worse than Nixon.
