Day #4 : Obama's disrespect of Scalia keeps him away from the funeral, and why ? Simnple. First, he hates the conservative white population.
His first decision as president, even before moving into the WH, was to return the bust of Winston Churchill against the wishes of that government.
He attended and approved of a church that preached Black Liberation Theology, which included a rejection of the White Jesus, replacing him with a Black Jesus, but more than this, a theology that reject the founding of this country by "white slave traders," and the documents they authored. His disdain for the High Court as a body of shared ideologies is palpable. In his first State of the Union Address, he took time to rebuke the Court, something never done before in a State of the Union speech. His success rate in defending his radical ideas, has been around 47%, far far less than any other president . . . again demonstrating his disdain for all things Constitutional.
His refusal to attend Margaret Thatcher's funeral was an equally egregious decision . . . . . a fool in a world of giants.
And today, his contempt for Justice Scalia. Some will remind us that Obama and his rebel wife attend the church yesterday, "paying tribute" to the justice . . . . . . . . for an entire two minutes.
Just know this: anyone, and I mean ANYONE, who gives honor and respect to Al Sharpton, is, himself, worthless as one who pretends to be an unity, and vile as the heart of black Occupy movement.
All of the above is the first consideration . . . . Obama's hate for the Right.
Secondly, and perhaps the larger reason, is the fact that this funeral upstages how the people feel for Scalia versus any thought of sadness at the death of Obama. If the tables were reversed, I would go golfing in memory of the Slickster . . . . me and millions of Americans . . . . . and I am not a golfer (but neither is Obama).
Now you know.
Scalia deserved NO respect. He was corrupt and an asshole. It’s now been revealed that the luxury hunting ranch vacation Antonin Scalia was on when he died was a gift from someone who Scalia indirectly helped with a recent Supreme Court decision. And this isn't the first time Scalia has accepted favors for his 'work'.
ReplyDeleteIn late 2015, the Supreme Court declined to hear an age discrimination suit (Hinga, James V. Mic Group, LLC) against a subsidiary of the manufacturing company J.B. Poindexter, which is owned by John B. Poindexter. Poindexter also owns the 30,000-acre Cibolo Creek Ranch in Shafter, Texas, where Scalia was vacationing when he died last weekend. According to the Washington Post, Scalia didn’t pay for his flight to the ranch, or for his room at the luxury ranch. His food and beverages were also free.
Justice Ginsburg disagrees withour assemsment of Scalia, as do I and I happen to be the owner of this blog. Here is here comment about Antonin Scalia:
DeleteStatement of Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg:
" Toward the end of the opera Scalia/Ginsburg, tenor Scalia and soprano Ginsburg sing a duet: “We are different, we are one,” different in our interpretation of written texts, one in our reverence for the Constitution and the institution we serve. From our years together at the D.C. Circuit, we were best buddies. We disagreed now and then, but when I wrote for the Court and received a Scalia dissent, the opinion ultimately released was notably better than my initial circulation. Justice Scalia nailed all the weak spots—the “applesauce” and “argle bargle”—and gave me just what I needed to strengthen the majority opinion. He was a jurist of captivating brilliance and wit, with a rare talent to make even the most sober judge laugh. The press referred to his “energetic fervor,” “astringent intellect,” “peppery prose,” “acumen,” and “affability,” all apt descriptions. He was eminently quotable, his pungent opinions so clearly stated that his words never slipped from the reader’s grasp.
Justice Scalia once described as the peak of his days on the bench an evening at the Opera Ball when he joined two Washington National Opera tenors at the piano for a medley of songs. He called it the famous Three Tenors performance. He was, indeed, a magnificent performer. It was my great good fortune to have known him as working colleague and treasured friend."
Re: the Anonymous comment: I find the comment to be pejorative in its very creation and intent as opposed to a serious and intellectual commentary. Your Anonymous puts forth the notion that she opposes the "corruption" of Scalia (a free flight and a free soda ??) while, no doubt, supporting Hillary Clinton ($675 million for three 20 minute speeches, her Libyan to Syria gun-running ideas, her refusal to heed the pleas from Ambassador Stevens leading to his tragic death, and the criminal FBI investigation currently under review) . . .b . or, Barack Obama (280 days of free golf, millions and millions of dollars of free multi-national vacations for his wife and kids - somewhere close to 35 such vacations, his scheme with Eric Holder to put guns in the hands of the Mexican cartel as a path to influencing anti-gun legislation, His charge to the IRS to refuse 360 conservative requests for recognition as 501 3c organizations, his illegal immigration program, his weaponization of the EPA and all those gay rumors).
ReplyDeleteProgressives such as Anonymous could not be more hypocritical in their criticism of men such as Scalia, nor more dangerous in their support of the current level of corporate and legislative corruption.
