		<description>Debbie,

How wonderful to hear from you -- one of the brightest listeners to call my radio show!

Your comments on your law professor are chilling!  At least he had the guts to verbalize his judicial philosophy.  Yes, everyone who feels that judges or justices should be allowed to impose their will, should have to sit in a court of law and see what happens when unelected judges who feel they are not bound by law or the Constitution are not reigned in.  

I am so flattered that I had a part in your decision to study law.  I can only imagine how the Lord will use you in the future.</description>

		<description>Dear Jane,

It is so very obvious our judges (most) are totally out of control and have self-appointed themselves "God": These judges obviously have no clue as to the content of our Constitution, Bill of Rights, etc. 

Point in case: 
Recently the California Supreme Court took it upon themselves to bypass the will of the majority of the voters by legalizing gay marriage. How is this even possible and why do we let it continue?

Another point in case:
Terri Schivo (sp?)). A judge ordered her to die...be murdered. He referred to the "rule of law" in this decision. I am a nurse for 25 years. This woman died a inhumane and barbaric murder. I never dreamed I would see the day this happened. OK, take the NG tube out but allow her to eat! They would not so much as let her have a moist cloth to her lips! This woman hung on for days, much longer than expected, why? She wanted to live. An autopsy was performed and those in the know....medical experts, doctors, whatever.....declared her brain was shriveled up and obviously could not function normally. Any human body starved to death will have a shriveled up brain at the time of autopsy. WE WOULD NOT DO THIS TO A DOG! Can you just imagine the horror which would occur had we imposed this death sentence on an animal?

I am a law student. One of my judge instructors on the first days said the following, these are not his exact words but enough to get the point I'm trying to make:

".....IF YOU WORK HARD AND MAKE IT PAST THE BAR, YOUR LIFE WILL CHANGE! IF SOMEBODY EVEN LOOKS AT YOU WRONG YOU TAKE EVERYTHING THEY HAVE AND THEN THROW THEM IN JAIL......" 

Jane he was serious. My main purpose for law school is to prove that integrity can stay intact post-bar and that somehow I can be a part of changing the direction of our judicial system which has definitely become "vision anointed" believing they are the appointed few   (the only) who can play God.

 Have you ever been in family court? Never in my wildest dreams would I have believed the injustice imposed daily on the family going through divorce....that is if you have a big bank account. The judges here have unbelievable power to do as they choose. Of course their decisions are based on money, whom the attorney is, evaluation after evaluation by so called specialist in the field, dragging out the proceedings month to month to month putting a lean on your home to secure funds; its all about the money. There is absolutely no concern whatsoever for the children involved whom go to school and read about our wonderful judicial system, government check and balance through the division of power, etc. Through the course of divorce these children see the reality of the situation. I firmly believe that either knowingly or unknowingly there is an agenda in our family law courts, that being the destruction of the family as we know it...the way God designed it.

History is not being taught in schools. There is a purpose for learning history; don't repeat the same mistakes over and over. History is being repeated again, one which ultimately leads to destruction if not corrected early on or at least prior to our destruction. Our presidential candidates seem to think we can hold hands with the rest of the world singing the little coke jingle all smiling and looking at one another with looks of true endearment. NOT. A large part of the world would like to see us blown off the face of the earth and will promise anything, sign any treaty or do whatever it takes to deceive us minute by minute as they prepare for our ultimate destruction. 

WHERE ARE OUR LEADERS? Most likely aborted. 

I believe it is high time our church leaders communicate with and educate their congregations with the facts of reality here. Christians have got to make a stand.  If we don't make a stand now, it won't be long before it will be against the law to even say a prayer in a public place. Churches...forget the tax exempt status, there is much more at stake here, not to mention the fact we already give over 50% of our hard earned money to the government in the form of taxation whats a little more money when so much is on the line? In time they will get that money anyway so fight the battle now reduce taxes and eliminate the IRS and most government organizations when we win the battle.

II Chronicles 7:14 ...my favorite verse.

Jane I have worried about you.  I miss your three hour radio broadcast in southern California. You are responsible for awakening a passion inside me which is huge. How can we get you back on the radio? Please email me ...I won't take much of your time.

		<description>Ms. Chastain,

Loved the article.

I think doing it “For the children”, really means doing it “To the children”.

Keep up the good work.</description>

		<description>Alberta,

The role of the Supreme Court is to determine whether federal, state and local governments are acting ACCORDING to the Constitution of the United States.

We are guaranteed equal protection under the law by the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. Under the Constitution justice is blind to race, gender or economic status.  Blacks and women got the right to vote because of the 15th and 19th Amendments to the Constitution.</description>

		<description>One of the the roles of the Supreme Court is to protect the oppressed or vulnerable in our society-those that either because of their numbers or age or circumstances are unable to defend themselves.

This does not mean the court is instructed to vote in favor of the person with the smaller house. That is ludicrous and saying such stupid and misleading statements only serves to invalidate your other points.
Unfortunately with the Bush court, we’ve seen examples of justices forgetting their roles of serving justice, equality and other values to “screw” the individual in favor of big business (case decided in favor of the employer in which plaintiff sued for gender equality in wages) or in favor -of all things, of religious values (recent ruling on abortion case). This in a country where we supposedly have freedom of religion-ah, but maybe not of religious dogma infecting our government.
In any democratic and humane society, someone must speak out for those that cannot defend themselves. A supreme court should put those values above all others.
How do you think blacks and women ever got the right to voteF? These are the types of injustices that only the Suupreme Court can correct. APG</description>

		<description>Jane,
If you don't like the current options for president you should join the Vast Right Wing Conspiracy and help select someone most of us can agree on. There is still time to identify a write-in candidate. (See Letters to the Editor - Worldnetdaily.com 5/22 and 5/14.) Once this is done word must be spread to the Right Wing that absentee ballots must be obtained so a write-in can be accomplished (can't do it on electronic voting machines). "None of the above" must not be an option or we hand the Left 8 years to destroy both freedom and America.</description>

		<description>Jane,

I agree whole-heartedly with your angle on the issue of Supreme Court justices. Unfortunately, your home run hit a steep gust from the left-field bleachers just prior to clearing the fence. You refer to our Founding Fathers as "framers". Ish!

This is a purely leftist term that plays right into the hand of the "Play-Doh Principle". Please refrain in the future from using this term in regard to the Founders, unless of course you're poking fun at liberals. The words we use do matter.

After all, if you call them Founders, that implies a foundation, which is tougher to tinker with. Frames are much easier to play with and shape into your own ethical image.</description>

		<description>"Obama has given us a clue as to the type of justices he would appoint. He admires Breyer, Ginsburg and Souter – three of the biggest activists on the high court." 

Jane,  McCain voted to confirm all of the above!  Regardless of what his website says, it is just buying votes from conservatives.  His record says otherwise.  

In 1856, a new party was formed, and in 1860, that party's candidate won the presidency with only 39% of the popular vote.  That party died some time ago, but it is still nominating candidates to carry its label.  Today, Americans have an opportunity to recognize a third party that still carries the mantle of the people, but because the media won't recognize them, they seem destined to fail.  Bob Barr is seeking the Libertarian Party nomination.  He is a true conservative, and a constitutionalist.  He and Chuck Baldwin will be the only true constitutionalists in the race this November, but will not be as fortunate as Abe Lincoln, a no name from Illinois was in 1860.</description>

		<description>You  conservatives  are  always  complaining
about  so-called  liberal  judges  who  are
supposedly  trying  to  impose  their"liberal"
agenda  on America.As  if  conservative  judges
have  never  tried  to  impose THEIR  conservative
agenda  on  America.  The  founding  fathers  never
intended  that  the government  pry  into  people's
bedrooms. Or tell  them  what  they  may  read  or
view  in  private. And  the  notion  that  they
would  have  insisted  that  women  be  forced  to
bear  children  against  their  will  is ludicrous.
  Abortion  was  non-issue  at  that  time.
  If  one  of  them  had  even  brought  up  abortion
at  meeting,let  alone  making  it  illegal,
the  others  would  have thought  he  was  out  of
his mind.</description>
