"We must elect (those who) refuse to enforce unlawful Court orders."

This is a paraphrase (courtesy of DUers joanski01 and savannahan) from Herb Titus, one of the speakers at the "Judicial War on Faith" conference that aired on CSPAN yesterday. Titus, who represented Roy Moore before the Supreme Court in his Ten Commandments case, is also author of The Constitutional Restoration Act of 2004, which would essentially make it illegal for the judiciary to overrule legislation based on God's law. In the law's own language: " "Notwithstanding any other provision of this chapter, the Supreme Court shall not have jurisdiction to review, by appeal, writ of certiorari, or otherwise, any matter to the extent that relief is sought against an element of Federal, State, or local government, or against an officer of Federal, State, or local government (whether or not acting in official personal capacity), by reason of that element's or officer's acknowledgment of God as the sovereign source of law, liberty, or government."


Here is savannahana's complete report on Titus' remarks (her complete report on what she saw of the conference is here:

"Why do you suppose God wrote the Ten Commandments with His very finger?" Titus intones: "It is written, it is written, it is written..." "the most efficient...solution is to elect gov's & presidents who refuse to enforce unlawful court orders. indeed, that is the 1st line of defense in the US Const... Did you know that every Fed officer & every state officer take an oath to uphold the constitution, but the president takes an oath that is different: ... to preserve, protect, & defend the Const. of the US. Pres Bush has not fulfilled his oath, because he refuses to examine, independently, federal court orders to determine whether they are consistent or inconsistent wth the law of the Const"

"he (the pres) has a duty to examine court opinions. Why? because court opinions aren't law, they are only evidence of law & if they are contrary to law, they are not law at all and should not be enforced, & the Pres has duty under the Const to take care that the laws are faithfully executed.... and that's what went wrong with Terry Shiavo. jeb Bush, under Article 4 of Fl const, has supreme... duty & authority to refuse to enforce Greer's order. That's where the responsibility was, where it needs to be.... & we need, as a people, to recognize that if we're going to have a separation of powers with const checks & balances, then we need to elect constitutional govs & presidents across this country.... & if we did, & if the pres & govs did their jobs, that would stop this judicial tyranny right now, becuase you'd be able to check the judiciary before their orders get out the door. Now. Is that revolutionary? Yes. But guess what? the only power judges have is judgement; the executive is the only one that has the authority to enforce a court order. Our executive officers have failed us, & we fail to hold them accountable for their failure to take care that the laws are faithfully executed."

exit Titus, under wobbly applause.

I don't even know where to begin.

Put more of these lunatics on TV. Use the media's tendency to give a microphone to anyone from the right-wing against them. DEMAND that this crackpot replace Dan Rather, run for president, be given the FCC chairmanship, and an hour-long program on Fox.

Yesterday, Rick Scarborough, who seems to be the organizer of the event, said on C-SPAN's Washington Journal, something like "Who do these judge's think they are, God?"

These fat headed twits don't think (because they can't think, of course) to turn the question around on themselves.
