-Caveat Lector- WJPBR Email News List [EMAIL PROTECTED] Peace at any cost is a prelude to war! Dear Brigade, "There in a nutshell is the mindset of the judges who now rule over us: 'Gay marriage good; religious schools bad.' Without the consent of the American people, a social revolution is being imposed upon them from above by unelected judges appointed for life and answerable to no one..." GO PAT GO !!!!!!!!! Linda ------------------------------- PJB - Official Press Release - December 21, 1999 Buchanan Decries 'Judicial Dictatorship' Denounces Vermont Gay Rights, Cleveland Vouchers Decisions Today, Pat Buchanan released the following statement: "Yesterday, the American people were given a brute demonstration of how their constitutional right to govern themselves has been usurped by an imperial judiciary. They may also see today just how far that imperial judiciary has gone in repudiating the moral order, as Western civilization has always understood it. "The Vermont Supreme Court gave advocates of homosexual marriage what they have repeatedly failed to win before the bar of public opinion. The court unilaterally ceded to homosexual liaisons all the legal benefits of married couples, and declared outdated and obsolete the Judeo-Christian idea that traditional marriage deserves special consideration. The Vermont judges have thus, in an afternoon, overturned thousands of years of tradition and law that defined marriage as a sacred bond between a man and a woman. This is judicial dictatorship. "On the very same day, a federal district judge in Cleveland ruled that a voucher program passed by the Ohio legislature was unconstitutional, because parents used the vouchers to send their children to religious schools. There in a nutshell is the mindset of the judges who now rule over us: 'Gay marriage good; religious schools bad.' Without the consent of the American people, a social revolution is being imposed upon them from above by unelected judges appointed for life and answerable to no one. "We, the people, are, with little protest, ceding control over the most basic aspects of our public life to such judges. The pseudo-conjugal arrangements endorsed by the Vermont Supreme Court would likely never have won the support of Vermont's people or even of its generally liberal legislature. But the voucher program struck down in Cleveland was supported by the people of Cleveland and their representatives. When Americans are no longer able to decide, through their elected officials, the most fundamental questions of their public lives, they are no longer living in a democratic republic. "I condemn these two illegitimate judicial decisions, as I condemn Roe v. Wade and other decisions where federal and state courts have ruled in unconstitutional and immoral ways. It is time the American people took back from these arrogant judges the right to make the decisions that govern their daily lives." -------------- end ---------------- ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ T H E I N T E R N E T B R I G A D E Linda Muller - WebMaster Post Office Box 650266, Potomac Falls, Virginia 20165 Email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Web: http://www.buchanan.org ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Have You O F F I C I A L L Y E N L I S T E D Yet? http://www.buchanan.org/form-enlistment.html ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ The One and Only B R I G A D E Email List!
