Obama 9th Circuit Nominee: Constitution Must Adapt to Changes in the World
Even his critics describe him as “brilliant,” but President Obama’s newly minted judicial nominee — law professor Goodwin Liu — will not have an easy time getting to the 9th Circuit bench.
Not have an easy time? Is there an assumption he WILL make it to the bench?
At age 39, Liu has compiled an impressive resume: Rhodes Scholar, Supreme Court clerk, top grades at both Stanford University and Yale Law School and now law professor University of California, Berkeley.
I don’t care if he there are people who think this guy is the ‘second coming’ of Earl Warren!
Liu has also aligned himself with progressive legal groups, including the American Constitution Society, where he is chairman of the board of directors. That’s prompting opponents to argue that Liu is “too far outside the mainstream” to take a seat on a court just one step below the Supreme Court of the United States.
If you are not familiar with the American Constitution Society, you should REALLY do some investigating, especially the “Constitutional Interpretation and Change” page. Scroll down for some real interesting reading. 
“He believes the Constitution is something judges can manipulate to have it say what they think culture or evolving standards of decency requires of it in a given day,” said the Senate Judiciary Committee’s top Republican Jeff Sessions, R-Ala.
He “believes” what he’s been force fed by his fellow progressives, aka SOCIALISTS, prominent in all areas of education these days. He believes WRONG!
Ed Whelan, a one-time clerk to Justice Antonin Scalia and now president of the Ethics and Public Policy Center, echoed those concerns.
“Liu believes that judges have the authority to impose their views … using clever verbal camouflage to disguise what they’re doing.”
Unfortunately, judges have been going this route for WAY too long, and have handed up the mess we find ourselves in now. Judges have stripped away societal norms, to be replaced with the destruction of the family, life, and morality.
Others who know Liu point to what he’s accomplished, starting as the son of Taiwanese immigrants who didn’t speak much English.
Well, that’s real nice. There are a WHOLE lot of successful people who are in this country who parents, or grandparents came here speaking little, or no English at all. I wouldn’t want the majority of them sitting on the bench either.
“He embodies the American dream,” said Doug Kendall, president of the progressive Constitutional Accountability Center (CAC).
How does the embodiment of the American dream involve the destruction of that dream?
If it is within my small realm of influence, I will do everything I can to remove ANY Senator who votes FOR this man’s confirmation, ESPECIALLY those with an “R” behind their name!
