House of Representatives—what the Republicans in the House must do to TAKE BACK the NATION, part 3
On my January 3, 2011 post I wrote the following: “I wrote during the 2008 election (and even before that election) that the three most important political issues were:
1) Stopping the MURDER of unborn babies.
2) Stopping the homosexual agenda and reversing the ridiculous concept that a particular sinful, immoral behavior—homosexual behavior—was somehow a “civil right” to be protected by governments.
3) Stopping an out of control federal judiciary from rewriting the U.S. Constitution through judicial fiat.
The major problem with the American society and our governments is that we have and are continuing to disregard GOD’S will and GOD established values and morality. We have insanely substituted our humanist, immoral, sinful desires as we seek instant human gratification instead of pleasing the CREATOR of the universe. Of course, this rejection of GOD and elevation of self has been a constant problem throughout human history.
‘The wrath of God is being revealed from heaven against all the godlessness and wickedness of men who suppress the truth by their wickedness, since what may be known about God is plain to them. For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities—his eternal power and divine nature—have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse.
For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images made to look like mortal man and birds and animals and reptiles.
Therefore, God gave them over in the sinful desires of their hearts to sexual impurity for the degrading of their bodies with one another. They exchanged the truth of God for a lie, and worshiped and served created things rather than the Creator—who is forever praised. Amen.
Because of this, God gave them over to shameful lusts. Even their women exchanged natural relations for unnatural ones. In the same way the men also abandoned natural relations with women and were inflamed with lust for one another. Men committed indecent acts with other men, and received in themselves the due penalty for their perversion.
Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, MURDER (my capitalization—my addition), strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents, they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless. Although they know God’s righteous decree that those who do such things deserve death, they not only continue to do these very things but also APPROVE (my capitalization—my addition) of those who practice them.’ Romans 1: 18-32 (NIV)
Thus, our desire to recklessly spend the nation into oblivion is a symptom of the problem. It is not the problem per se. Therefore, the House of Representatives must attack the problem and not just the symptoms. Those Republicans who claim we must concentrate on economic issues without addressing moral values are absolutely wrong. A cancer is ended when the cancer itself is attacked successfully. Attacking the symptoms only will not end the cancer.”
On my January 3rd post, I wrote about stopping the MURDER of unborn babies. On my January 5th post, I addressed stopping the homosexual agenda and reversing the ridiculous concept that a particular sinful, immoral behavior—homosexual behavior—is somehow a “civil right” to be protected by governments. Today, I’m dealing with the political body that originally forced the “acceptance” of the MURDER of unborn babies and that declared that the SIN of homosexual behavior could not be regulated/controlled by law by we the people.
That political body was and is the federal courts. I’ve written about the tyranny of the federal courts since I began writing this blog in July of 2005. Governmentally, the federal courts have been the single greatest contributor to the moral decline of this nation than any other federal body. The courts blatant disregard for the moral character of the people MUST be stopped and MUST be reversed.
As I’ve written, the original United States Constitution gave less political authority to the federal courts than to the other two branches of government. The courts had the least power. Congress had the most power. Today, by illegally and immorally “rewriting” the U.S. Constitution without benefit of Constitutional Amendments, the federal courts have seized major authority by judicial fiat. Where they have and as they continue to do so, this nation is no longer a Republic.
Rather, we have been moving inexplicably to an oligarchy of the selected few—unelected judicial members of the federal court system. This oligarchy has been prolific in subverting the Constitutional system of this nation and prolific in fulfilling the statement of Romans 1: 21-22 (NIV) “For although they knew God, they neither glorified him as God nor gave thanks to him, but their thinking became futile and their foolish hearts were darkened. Although they claimed to be wise, they became fools ….” As a result of their rejection of GOD and GOD’S principles, “Furthermore, since they did not think it worthwhile to retain the knowledge of God, he gave them over to a depraved mind, to do what ought not to be done. They have become filled with every kind of wickedness, evil, greed and depravity. They are full of envy, MURDER (my capitalization—my addition), strife, deceit and malice. They are gossips, slanderers, God-haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents (Or, if you will, they disobey the Constitution of the United States which is the guiding force for our government just as parents are suppose to be the guiding force for the family—my addition), they are senseless, faithless, heartless, ruthless.” Romans 1: 28-31 [NIV]
Since I’ve been writing this blog, I’ve tended to concentrate on the Senate when it came to this judicial tyranny since it is the Senate which approves the political appointment of federal judges as nominated by the President. However, there are actions that the House of Representatives may take in order to stop this unconstitutional abuse of power.
First and foremost: FIRE the corrupt judges!
My post of November 5, 2010 had this heading: “FIRE the judges too! They are FIRED!” This post dealt with the 2010 election in which the three Iowa Supreme Court judges, who were up for retention and who had all ruled by judicial fiat that homosexuals in Iowa must be permitted to marry, were all FIRED by the electorate. It took a monumental effort by groups opposed to this immoral ruling but it did happen.
Unfortunately, the electorate at the federal level can not directly FIRE members of the court for their immoral, unconstitutional, tyrannical decisions. However, the Constitution does provide a means to FIRE an appointed member of the federal judiciary. Contrary to the seemingly popular belief, members of the federal judiciary are NOT appointed to their position for life. This is what the Constitution actually says:
“Article III
Section. 1. The judicial Power of the United States shall be vested in one supreme Court, and in such inferior Courts as the Congress may from time to time ordain and establish. The Judges, both of the supreme and inferior Courts, shall hold their Offices during good Behaviour ….”
The appointment is NOT for life. The appointment is “during good Behaviour!” Who decides the good Behaviour of judges and Justices? Congress does! Congress has the power and on some occasions in the past has actually used the power to impeach (by the House of Representatives) and convict (by the Senate) members of the judicial branch of government.
Certainly, it is a violation of good Behaviour to disregard one’s oath of office to uphold the Constitution of the United States. And yet, inferior court judges routinely violate that oath of office. One glaring example of this violation of one’s oath of office occurs when inferior court judges take original jurisdiction in cases dealing with a State. Two recent examples of this violation are the California case dealing with that electorate’s rejection of the California Supreme Court’s decision to force homosexual marriage upon the State and the State of Arizona’s lawful attempt to regulate and control illegal immigrants who are living within the borders of the State of Arizona.
The Constitution of the United States specifically states:
“Article III
Section. 2.
¶ 2. In all Cases affecting Ambassadors, other public Ministers and Consuls, and those in which a STATE (my capitalization for emphasis—my addition) shall be a party, the supreme Court shall have original jurisdiction. In all the other Cases before mentioned, the supreme Court shall have appellate Jurisdiction, both to Law and Fact, with such Exceptions, and under such Regulations as the Congress shall make.”
Therefore, NO case “in which a State shall be a party” should EVER begin in an inferior court. Inferior courts DO NOT have jurisdiction over State cases. Therefore, by definition, any inferior court judge who takes a case in which a State is a party has automatically violated his oath of office. Every judge who violates his oath of office should be immediately impeached by the House of Representatives.
I guarantee that if the House of Representatives started impeaching judges who violate their oath of office, there would be far fewer judges who would dare to violate their oath of office. Right now, judges routinely violate their oath of office and they know there will be NO consequences for this violation. Provide the consequences and the violations will be far fewer.
It is the RESPONSIBILITY of the House of Representatives to hold members of the judiciary accountable for their actions! It is the RESPONSIBILITY of we the people to hold members of the House of Representatives accountable for their action or lack thereof in this area of upholding the Constitution of the United States.
When Congress DEMANDS that members of the federal courts uphold their oath of office, a surprising thing will occur. Most members of the federal judiciary WILL uphold their oath of office. And if Congress has the will and the backing of we the people, those judges who violate their oath of office will be REMOVED from their position of authority for usurping that authority.
The House of Representatives just finished reading the Constitution of the United States on the floor of the House. Now, the members of that body MUST require that all members of all branches of the government actually OBEY the Constitution as WRITTEN. The federal courts DO NOT have the authority to rewrite the Constitution of the United States by judicial fiat!!!
It is past time to TAKE BACK THE NATION! It is past time to follow the Constitution as WRITTEN!! We are suppose to be a nation of laws. We are not suppose to be a nation controlled by an oligarchy of unelected judicial appointees. Why are we allowing judicial TYRANNY!?
