What Happened To The Constitution and The Oathes Sworn To It?

ARE THERE ANY DEFENDERS OF THE CONSTITUTION LEFT?

(Sep. 3, 2011) — On the grounds that Justice Thomas’s wife is involved with the Tea Party movement, Jeffrey Toobin of The New Yorker recently demanded that Justice Thomas recuse himself from sitting on a  case challenging the constitutionality of Obamacare’s “individual mandate,” the lynchpin of the health care leviathan.
True to hypocritical liberal form, Toobin studiously neglected any mention of Justice Elena Kagan’s conflict of interest occasioned by her having worked on the issue in the Justice Department before her appointment as Associate Justice.  Another case of selective lib indignity.
The liberal strategy is embarrassingly obvious: eliminate conservative judicial threats to their activist agenda before the case is reviewed.
For me, such deceitful attempts to manipulate the court underscores a much greater concern–a more fundamental concern–that being the menacing power and corruption of the Supreme Court itself..

Lisbon has the same situation with two councilors. Pomelow and Mason have demonstrated their total lack of respect for the Constitution and the Town Charter. Both signed their Oath of Office with the full knowledge they were in violation of the Town Ordinances but allowed their ego's to take over instead of doing what is right. There is no honor or integrity when you knowingly violate what you have swore to God to obey.
