    Ginsburg, whose job on the Supreme Court is to uphold the U.S. Constitution, has a curious but sadly widespread disdain for that document. A recent New York Times article suggested the American Constitution is losing its allure around the world. The main reason is it does not guarantee the right to, among other things, food, health care and education.

    In other words, Ginsberg and others on the left feel the Constitution is slanted too much toward preventing the government from doing things -- like putting people in jail without due process -- and not toward requiring the government to do things -- like providing people with a whole array of social services that liberals believe it should.

    Of course the right to food, health care and education has to be paid for, meaning people will be deprived of their property for that purpose.

    Liberals complain the U.S. Constitution is hard to amend, which is why they like to rely on creative interpretations of a document they regard as "living." Sadly, it is even more difficult to impeach a sitting Supreme Court justice such as Ginsburg, even one who has so flagrantly trashed the Constitution that she is sworn to protect and defend.

    This is not from a Newsource and is a commentary on Ginsburg. But this piece is so Dead-On, and it does bring up that fact of how difficult it is to Impeach a SC Judge. Why is this so? Why can we not use Social Media Services to take people Like Ginsburg down. (Politicans, and Celbs included) Should people be all on the News media to make impeachment at the very least possible.

    Bring forth the charges and see if Ginsburg folds to the pressure of the Media, the American People, and More importantly the American Will.

    I think Ginsberg was absolutely correct (although not for the reasons she thinks). I feel our constitution has been so abused that it no longer represents what it once did. If I were to make a new constitution, I would use the old one as a guide, but obviously it does not limit the powers of government nearly enough.

    Liberals are not the only ones that like to use creative interpretations of the Constitution. Who was it that pushed the Patriot Act again?

    Whoever criticizes capitalism, while approving immigration, whose working class is its first victim, had better shut up. Whoever criticizes immigration, while remaining silent about capitalism, should do the same.

    Good to see you Az! (as I once knew you )

    I hear what you're saying. The Constitution, much like the Bible has been twisted many times in an effort to support whatever the speaker's agenda is. I don't know that the old one didn't limit the powers of government enough, I would say that later generations just ignored what always used to be fairly obvious.

    No worries D,

    We will see how long I last. I am in a political mood lately because of various reasons so your invite hit me at a good time. Nice to hear from you (and see so many of the others) BTW.
