How far from the Constitution must we get before we step up and defend it from our appointed and elected officials? When will we act in our own defense?

With a Supreme Court with elitist attitudes and an almost God like set of powers the meaning of the Constitution and the powers it gives has become no more than opinion. The Court itself rules without fact on issues like abortion where a beating heart and functioning brain is known to most to mean life, they say it is not life until you can see it and condone murder as Constitutional. They give rights under the Constitution to foreign citizens even on foreign soil, and believe they have the power to go against the Constitution and overturn laws passed by a 2/3 majority of voters in a state.

Until we band together and pass a Constitutional amendment allowing for the removal of Supreme Court justices who fail to uphold and defend it’s integrity we can expect no less than what has become the norm in Washington to apply un-checked to politicians as well as the courts.

I stand firm in my belief that no agency that polices the people should police themselves and that includes the highest court in the land. We have created gods among men and must undo it through the vote of the people. Problem is the Supreme court will rule it as un-constitutional.

We do have some good in Washington, but as is the rule of the day they must often compromise their core values in order to garner support for issues of greater value. As long as the game is black mail and hand washing our only method of stopping it is through the power of voter referendums and laws we pass through signature petition, but so few will step up and stand out on a cold day or hot summer morning collecting signatures to make things happen. Instead we turn to forums like this to gripe and moan about what we ourselves are not doing.

The right of the people to propose and pass into law by referendum and popular vote still exist but is seldom used on a national level. Why are we not pro-active and yet expect others to be?
