Supreme Ignorance
posted by The Sailor @ 5:21 PM PermalinkJustice Thomas talked about his own school days, reminiscing fondly about seeing “a flag and a crucifix in each classroom.”Sorry Clarence, we already have a Constitution and a Bill of Rights.
[...]
The event, on March 31, was devoted to the Bill of Rights, but Justice Thomas did not embrace the document, and he proposed a couple of alternatives.
“Today there is much focus on our rights,” Justice Thomas said. “Indeed, I think there is a proliferation of rights.”
“I am often surprised by the virtual nobility that seems to be accorded those with grievances,” he said. “Shouldn’t there at least be equal time for our Bill of Obligations and our Bill of Responsibilities?”
And the 'Bill of Obligations' and the 'Bill of Responsibilities' were not included.
There has been no 'proliferation of rights', there has only been the eroding of them.

You buys you ticket and take you chances. Thank goodness when several justices retire (I think at least two or three justices have hung in there much longer than they intended because the thought of gwb appointing their replacements scared them spitless) Obama can appoint judges who actually know what the Constitution is, what it represents, and that it is the last firewall for defending the rights of us all.
