How did we get here? How did America so tragically betray its sacred promise to the world as a beacon of freedom symbolized by Lady Liberty standing proudly, holding her lamp aloft and beckoning the world to come to her majestic shores? To come to America for economic freedom, religious liberty: Give me your tired, your poor, Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free …
I remember the event like it was yesterday. It was the evening of Oct. 28, 2009, and my colleagues and I had just concluded a very important and successful two-day International Legal Conference on Freedom of Speech & Religion at the Congressional Auditorium in Washington, D.C., sponsored in part by my dear friend attorney Ann Fishman, founder and president of The Liberty Legal Project International.
U.S. Supreme Court Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg visited Cairo, Egypt, in late January for four days of discussions with judges, law school faculty, law school students and legal experts to “listen and learn.” While there she suggested Egyptian revolutionaries not use the U.S. Constitution as a model post-Arab Spring. Ginsburg words were spoken with the full understanding that Egyptian military officials were preparing to send to trial 19 American democracy and rights workers (including Sam LaHood, son of Ray LaHood, Obama’s secretary of transportation).
It is impossible to fight against a revolution that wars against, that undermines, that incessantly seeks to destroy everything you hold most dear (e.g., God, family, country) when you don’t even realize that you, your parents and your grandparents were born right in the middle of a vicious, perpetual war of ideas – Progressivism vs. […]
Desperate people do desperate things. What would you do for your daily bread? How low would you go for gainful employment? What religious, ethical or constitutional principles would you disregard to allow the government under a demagogue leader, a cowardly Congress and corrupt courts to enact policies and laws that in effect steal money from […]
Did white guilt + black victimhood = Obama in ’08? Will white guilt + black victimhood = Obama in ’12? When Rush declared on Inauguration Day 2009, regarding the presidency of Barack Obama, “I hope he fails,” the liberals went wild in a fascist mob frenzy, equating Rush’s statement of affirmation essentially as a racist […]
Abstract: This article is a substantive analysis tracing the legal, philosophical, social, historical, jurisprudence and political backgrounds of juvenile law, which is an outgrowth of the so-called Progressive movement – a popular social and political movement of the late nineteenth and early twentieth century. I also trace how this socio-political cause célèbre became a fixture […]
[U.S. Supreme Court Justice Benjamin Cardozo, commenting on the perversity of the exclusionary rule, contemptuously remarked—“The criminal is to go free because the constable has blundered.” Cardozo understood that “fidelity to law” meant having law practically apply to real life situations. In this article the author argues that in a post-9/11 world one can no […]
Last week I identified anti-Christian phenomena I called the Molech paradigm and demonstrated how this totalizing philosophy based on the ancient pagan idol Molech is used by utopian socialists and progressives to promote education atheism, infanticide, humanism and an anti-Christian worldview. Today I will expand my analysis to include cultural, political and legal considerations. The […]
When Machiavelli Comes to Town: The Dangers of Opportunistic Consulting
“It must be considered that there is nothing more difficult to carry out, nor more doubtful of success, nor more dangerous to handle, than to initiate a new order of things.” ~ Niccolò Machiavelli, The Prince (1532) “Unencumbered by government oversight, McKinsey is accountable only to its clients, who expect that their vulnerabilities, mistakes, […]
“The corruption, crime, and incompetence of the D.C. government has been an embarrassment to our nation’s capital for decades. It is long past time that Congress restored the honor and integrity of George Washington to the beautiful city which bears his name.” ~ Senator Mike Lee (R-UT), speaking on the BOWSER Act “It is […]
Fifth Circuit’s Ruling against “Nasdaq Board Diversity Rule” Safeguards Meritocracy Over Mediocrity
