Weak Leaders

There is not a perfect Constitution.  All of them, including ours, are dependent on honest and trustworthy men and women if they are to survive, over time, the trials of men of devious character.  Our Constitution is not an entirely original document.  Much of its brilliance was handed down to our "Founding Fathers" who, with much thought and debate, shaped it into the extraordinary document that it is. 

Being a justice of “The Supreme Court” is a responsibility that should only be entrusted to those who can separate their personal philosophy from the duties of interpreting the Constitution of the United States.  Regarding the recent "Hobby Lobby" decision, the dissenting arguments by the female justices and the one male justice whose blood supply seems to contain more estrogen than testosterone, is proof that the ladies are not up to that responsibility.

Thomas Jefferson

 Thomas Jefferson said:  “On every question of construction [let us] carry ourselves back to the time when the Constitution was adopted [and] recollect the spirit manifested in the debates, and instead of trying what meaning may be squeezed out of the text or invented against it, conform to the probable one in which it was  passed.”

Kagan

Ginsburg

Sotomayor

Breyer

It is a noteworthy fact that three of the four dissenting opinions were from the only women on the bench!  I would like to remind Ginsburg, Sotomayor, Kagan, and Breyer that their task is not to interpret the Constitution to make it fit their own personal leanings, but to interpret it in the spirit of the original designers: the founding fathers.
