This may become a regular feature

In the interest of enlightenment, I create this post so that all those ignorant Lefties may see the light of reason (fat chance) and tolerance.

Here's an article on the immunity thing. Please note the date.

In its 1867 decision Mississippi v. Johnson, the Supreme Court established that the President is largely beyond the reach of the judiciary by holding that it could not direct President Andrew Johnson in how he exercised his purely executive and political powers.1 The Court stated, it had no jurisdiction . . . to enjoin the President in the performance of his official duties.2

See? 1867? Like a hundred years ago. Right after Brandon freed all the slaves with his Magan Carta, written by the two Tommies, Roe and James.

For those who need to shut somebody up, please feel free to use.

Lest you resort to violence.

On Key Conversations & Worse

 

On Storms, Microbursts & Circling Vultures

 

Last week Tuesday, a thunderstorm delivering a microburst of 70mph straight line winds moved through our area in West MI on the eastern shore of Lake Michigan.  Five huge oaks in the woods in front of our house went down, blocking our drive and street.  While the next door neighbor, with trees similar to ours, barely lost a branch, the house five lots down had 10 more huge trees toppled over or snapped off at the trunk.  As the storm fanned out, more than half of the roads in our county were rendered impassable due to downed trees and powerlines.   The randomness of the devastation and amount of damage done was amazing and awful to see.  Four days of round the clock work were needed to clear the roads and repair the power lines, with sawing and chipping continuing to happen to deal with the mounds of debris and fallen wood left behind.  

Within the span of 10 minutes, a landscape that had been part of the picture for years was permanently and irreversibly changed.  Hundreds of healthy trees capable of enduring and withstanding decades of brutal winds and icy Michigan winter weather had been pushed over as if they were feathers, left on their sides with roots exposed, unable to be righted or restored back to life again.   All it took was one seemingly isolated storm.   A microburst.

So too with the debate.  Regardless of what comes next, the landscape has been irreversibly changed, with millions viewing the wreckage,  damage control in full swing, and the vultures circling.

Not the biggest

OK, I'm going to usurp TOP's place and talk about a ruling by the Supremes.

Not much, since I'm not all that qualified, but I think it's that important we give credit where it's due. The ruling about immunity is not the biggest thing to come out today.

Really. It may underscore what common sense would tell most people is the way things ought to be, but that shouldn't have to be done. 

Unless the country is dominated by Leftist lunatics.

The biggie IMHO is LOPER BRIGHT ENTERPRISES ET AL. v. RAIMONDO because it takes substantial power away from regulatory bureaucracies and puts it in the hands of the courts, which in turn puts it in the hands of the people. Not always a win for the people, given all the Lefty hacks who wear black dresses, but at least it gives us some redress.

This is the Clarence Thomas effect. It's why he will go down as possibly the most influential Justice of all time, as well as the greatest defender of the Constitution. We've seen some of the Conservatives vote against him and I've disagreed (for all that's worth) when his opinion was based more on tradition or a moral code than anything else, but it doesn't becloud the body of his work as a whole.

Too bad Brandon isn't coherent enough to reflect on the "high tech lynching of uppity blacks". He was one of the lynchers, along with Teddy Kennedy, and now stands, his life of corruption and deviance exposed, in contrast to the sterling reputation of Justice Thomas. 

This isn't a fan letter, but an appreciation of someone whose intellectual and moral weight deserves a lot more praise than he gets.

Then again, the Lone Ranger was content to leave a silver bullet on the sheriff's desk, too.
