The “rule of law” is an oft used phrase to support the contention that western civilization is superior to others. Greek philosophers called on inherent values to establish governance standards long before Twitter was around to subvert them. Indeed, our founding is based on the God given rights that were being suppressed by a government and now we see the same thing happening. When you can change the meaning of everything to suit your purpose, you can make the argument for anything. Take the latest red herring revolving around Ginni Thomas.
The political left and the Marxists among them don’t like the opinions Justice Thomas renders. He reads the text of the Constitution and clearly understands the words and what they mean and his opinions are based on those defined terms. This infuriates the left that would like the Constitution to be “interpreted” to better suit their ends. Of course, those ends are ever changing and therefore, the Constitution must also be ever changing. They believe it must be read in light of their current thinking to fit their plans. They love the term “living Constitution” as if it was not based on the inherent rights we were born with and ignore the amendment process the Founders put in place. To repeat, the Constitution codifies our rights to think and represent ourselves, to act in ways that we choose, and to defend ourselves, our family and our property against threats including those of a government that exceeds the power we accede to it.
The left, their Marxists and complicit media will howl at the notion that after 30 years of serving on the bench, Justice Thomas must now be silenced/removed. (You can bet some were hoping he never came out of the hospital.) This is just another attempt to change the court to fit its ultimate goal of total control over us. Every decision that goes against their plan is deemed another example of why the court is in need of change….to their liking.
When you attempt to redefine scientific terms like man and woman and say that it’s normal for K through 3rd graders to be taught, they may not be a boy or a girl, it provides insight into what kind of world these professed “progressives” are looking to impose. I trust that the vast majority of us wish nothing more than to live under the ideals spelled out in defined terms in our Constitution. The time for calling a spade a spade is upon us.
