-Caveat Lector- Dear Brigade, "It was a Republican Supreme Court that recently upheld a ban on certain semiautomatic weapons. It was a Republican Supreme Court that recently outlawed students from praying at football games. It was this same Republican Court that recently outlawed students from choosing a classmate to give a prayer at high school graduations. And it was this same Supreme Court that recently upheld the suspension of a Kansas youth for (gasp) drawing a picture of a Confederate flag...." Don't be fooled again America! GO PAT GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Linda ---------- From: "Chuck Baldwin" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "[EMAIL PROTECTED] " <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Subject: Chuck Baldwin's Food for thought Date sent: Tue, 10 Oct 2000 6:54:5 -0500 Republican Appointments: Nothing to Brag About by Chuck Baldwin October 10, 2000 One argument used by the Republican faithful for voting for Mr. Bush is that he will certainly appoint conservative, pro-life justices to the Supreme Court and other conservatives to important positions. However, the record of Republican appointments (including W’s) doesn’t necessarily bear that out. Republican appointments have dominated the High Court for nearly thirty years. It was a 7-2 Republican majority court that legalized the murder of unborn babies back in 1973. Still today Republican appointments hold a 7-2 advantage on the Supreme Court. And yet the court’s liberal decisions continue. It was a Republican Supreme Court that recently upheld a ban on certain semiautomatic weapons. It was a Republican Supreme Court that recently outlawed students from praying at football games. It was this same Republican Court that recently outlawed students from choosing a classmate to give a prayer at high school graduations. And it was this same Supreme Court that recently upheld the suspension of a Kansas youth for (gasp) drawing a picture of a Confederate flag. The Supreme Court has continued its penchant for liberal rulings, a majority of Republican appointments notwithstanding. And it’s not likely that a Bush White House will change much in this regard. In the first presidential debate, Mr. Bush told the American people to look at his Texas Supreme Court appointments. I did. I found that in their first ruling on the state’s new parental notification law, Bush appointed justices decided a teen-age girl could have an abortion without informing her parents. I also found that contrary to Bush’s claims, his appointments are anything but exemplary. One of Bush’s appointments to the Texas Supreme Court, Al Gonzales, said, "He [Bush] never asked me my position on any particular issue." The Texas Lawyer newspaper supported Gonzales’ statement. It concluded that Bush’s approach to appointing judges "isn’t quite what one might expect from a conservative Bible-Belt governor and tort reform champion." "Bush doesn’t question would-be appointees about abortion or school prayer, affirmative action or guns … and this may speak volumes about the men and women he’d tap for the most powerful courts in the nation if he becomes president." Indeed. His four Supreme Court appointees are widely viewed as moderates that consistently side with big business. Other Bush appointments are even more disturbing. His first appointment was a Democrat to the insurance commission. His next appointed was a militant pro-abortion Democrat as commissioner of health and human services. Just recently Bush appointed a long-time supporter of abortion and gay rights, Martha Hill Jamison, to the 164th district court. From a conservative perspective, this is hardly a record to brag about. If conservatives would pay more attention to what they are voting for instead of what they are voting against, the nation might turn around! As it is, all we get is more of the same, Republican labels notwithstanding. ---------- If you wish to send me an E-mail please use: [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.chuckbaldwinlive.com. --------- end ---------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ On the Trail.... with Pat Buchanan and Ezola Foster http://www.buchananreform.com/trail/trailmain.asp ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Internet Brigade Headquarters http://www.buchanan.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ BUCHANAN-FOSTER 2000 HQ 1-800-GO-PAT-GO http://www.buchananreform.com ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a Prelude to War! *COPYRIGHT NOTICE** In accordance with Title 17 U.
