What we “hated” was your legislation from the bench and lumps like Sotomayor who are there only for that purpose while you have kept actual legal talent like Robert Bork( possibly the most giant legal scholar of our time) from that court somehow.

Of course those who don’t agree with you are not wanting to face this vitriolic backlash.

But I don’t care at all about that and only covet the expository “character revealing” of those who immediately turn to that sort of bombastic response as a reflection of who they really are, deep down, who would trade in some sort of political discourse for that, with the greatest dispatch.

So simply put gay marriage should have never been an issue in need of a decision by the Supreme Court but because of a discriminatory government it was in fact necessary for folks to fight tooth and nail for the same RIGHT afforded straight couples.

May I introduce you to the Constitution of the United States of America:
"The enumeration in the Constitution, of certain rights, shall not be construed to deny or disparage others retained by the people."
Spoiler

The Federalists contended that a bill of rights was unnecessary. They responded to those opposing ratification of the Constitution because of the lack of a declaration of fundamental rights by arguing that, inasmuch as it would be impossible to list all rights, it would be dangerous to list some and thereby lend support to the argument that government was unrestrained as to those rights not listed.1 Madison adverted to this argument in presenting his proposed amendments to the House of Representatives. “It has been objected also against a bill of rights, that, by enumerating particular exceptions to the grant of power, it would disparage those rights which were not placed in that enumeration; and it might follow by implication, that those rights which were not singled out, were intended to be assigned into the hands of the General Government, and were consequently insecure. This is one of the most plausible arguments I have ever heard against the admission of a bill of rights into this system; but, I conceive, that it may be guarded against. I have attempted it, as gentlemen may see by turning to the last clause of the fourth resolution.”2 It is clear from its text and from Madison’s statement that the Amendment states but a rule of construction, making clear that a Bill of Rights might not by implication be taken to increase the powers of the national government in areas not enumerated, and that it does not contain within itself any guarantee of a right or a proscription of an infringement.3 In 1965, however, the Amendment was construed to be positive affirmation of the existence of rights which are not enumerated but which are nonetheless protected by other provisions.
The Ninth Amendment had been mentioned infrequently in decisions of the Supreme Court4 until it became the subject of some exegesis by several of the Justices in Griswold v. Connecticut.5 The Court in that case voided a statute prohibiting use of contraceptives as an infringement of the right of marital privacy. Justice Douglas, writing for the Court, asserted that the “specific guarantees in the Bill of Rights have penumbras, formed by emanations from those guarantees that help give them life and substance.”6 Thus, although privacy is not mentioned in the Constitution, it is one of the values served and protected by the First Amendment through its protection of associational rights, and by the Third, the Fourth, and the Fifth Amendments as well. The Justice recurred to the text of the Ninth Amendment, apparently to support the thought that these penumbral rights are protected by one Amendment or a complex of Amendments despite the absence of a specific reference. Justice Goldberg, concurring, devoted several pages to the Amendment.
“The language and history of the Ninth Amendment reveal that the Framers of the Constitution believed that there are additional fundamental rights, protected from governmental infringement, which exist alongside those fundamental rights specifically mentioned in the first eight constitutional amendments. . . . To hold that a right so basic and fundamental and so deep-rooted in our society as the right of privacy in marriage may be infringed because that right is not guaranteed in so many words by the first eight amendments to the Constitution is to ignore the Ninth Amendment and to give it no effect whatsoever. Moreover, a judicial construction that this fundamental right is not protected by the Constitution because it is not mentioned in explicit terms by one of the first eight amendments or elsewhere in the Constitution would violate the Ninth Amendment. . . . Nor do I mean to state that the Ninth Amendment constitutes an independent source of right protected from infringement by either the States or the Federal Government. Rather, the Ninth Amendment shows a belief of the Constitution’s authors that fundamental rights exist that are not expressly enumerated in the first eight amendments and an intent that the list of rights included there not be deemed exhaustive.”7

That’s why y’all losing your shit over Amy Barrett because she is committed to studying the law and ruling on whether or not what she is reading as law is coherent with the case in front of her.

You want her to forget the law, ( when convenient for you politically) and adhere to your policy proscriptions and further affect change to that law.

If your point is that there exists a school of thought that is contrary to both the plain words and plain intent of the Constitution, I ain’t arguing against that. There may be a school of thought that believes the Constitution is actually a recipe for peach cobbler, hell if I know. Shit, you may interpret it as saying TTom can do as he wishes, and the feds must back him up no matter what. I have no ability to stop people from having shitty takes.

Doesn’t make them any less wrong. There’s plenty of wrong interpretations of statutes, the constitution, etc. There are a lotta people who think we faked the moon landing, and that JFK jr is still alive. It’s still wrong and foolish.

It’s just fascinating that the “small government, I’m a super conservative” are also so going ho for a powerful federal government and sharply limited rights of the people. Lotta cognitive dissonance.

Fair enough. And respectable considering your work within the legal system as your chosen path , I have no doubt that your opinion is grounded in career and very personal life experiences, as you come across as a guy who gets more than an arms length attachment to your cases/clients.

In fact, reading and actually learning from your posts in these communities has actually taught me more than a little bit.

So. In your view. (This is where we detach, because no matter how you answer this, no -insults from me are going to be considered much less offered). In your view. Is there any bedrock foundational code/law/system ethics/ scripture/bingo card. Anything that the rest of that very complicated system of jurisprudence had been built upon that is not malleable in anyway, particularly for the reasons of current political climactic pressures?

I seem to remember your adherence to some sacrosanct idea of “prosecutorial discretion” as one of these.

Not sure if that’s still your stance, but either way ....Is this Constitution - in the the form it’s written in and as (not some “White Board” utility for use in each election cycles’ committee hearings) perhaps a solid “bedrock” foundation from which any shot at unity might start?

All laws are just a handshake agreement. Seriously. The rule of law is that fragile. As soon as someone or a group of someones who is powerful enough refuses to play by them, they’re dead. So there are no “bedrock” principles.

And as for the Constitution, it is not a foundational document. Rather, it is built on a foundation of enlightenment ideas and ideals - the rights of man, natural law, all sorts of concepts along those lines. But it’s all about what you believe. Do you believe that men have inherent rights? Do you believe that rights are only granted by the powerful? Do you believe that the only rule is the rule of might? All are constructs that people have believed.

Our system here is completely fragile. All it takes to kill it is to refuse to play by the rules and norms the system has established. The constitution is a piece of parchment, only as powerful as the willingness of the powerful to be bound by it.

I oppose the current effort to kill it, so I oppose Trumpism. It’s an easy call for me, it was before he was even nominated.

Legal scholars on the conservative side of things call it Natural Law.  

Thomas Hobbes wrote about it in Leviathan and De Cive. 

[wildcat09 29146]

Robert Bork’s contribution to legal scholarship was the rewriting of antitrust law to completely turn it on its head, neuter the ability to use it against monopolistic business practices, and expand its use against organized labor. I can’t think of a better or more destructive example of what legislating from the bench actually looks like.

Of course TTom would cite him as our greatest legal scholar while bitching about how liberal judges are bad because they legislate from the bench.

I actually agree with this. The 1st and 2nd amendment mean nothing if they are regulated and excepted out of existence.

All you had to do was nominate somebody who could plausible pretend to be a moderate left of center guy. And you would have won easily. Instead you nominate somebody who is corrupt even by Washington standards of corruption. Somebody who picks as his running mate a politician who is  somehow left of Bernie Sanders.  This is going to be a close election because you guys have picked a guy who spent his vice presidency vacuuming up millions of dollars from Russia, China, and the Ukraine and using his drug addicted son as the bagman.  And selling out America in the process.  If you guys lose, you have nobody to blame but yourself. Your candidate stinks and your platform has been hijacked by the far left,  and has zero appeal to the middle class. And if you win, you haven't won a great victory, you have just elected a guy who will continue Washington corruption as usual.

Somebody who picks as his running mate a politician who is  somehow left of Bernie Sanders.  This is going to be a close election because you guys have picked a guy who spent his vice presidency vacuuming up millions of dollars from Russia, China, and the Ukraine and using his drug addicted son as the bagman.  And selling out America in the process.  If you guys lose, you have nobody to blame but yourself.
