President Obama nominated Elena Kagan to the United States Supreme Court.  Let’s see, she is a lesbian, anti-military, tree-hugging, radical socialist from Chicago with zero judicial experience.  Perfect!  What’s pathetic is that she is probably the most acceptable appointment we could even hope to get from Obama.  Since she is already 50 years old, we only have to put up with this nonsense for about 30 to 40 years.

What is really sad is that all of the above is well-known by the main stream media, including Fox News, but it is being ignored.  They are all afraid to have anyone think that any of this matters.  The following excerpts from her college thesis are enough to justify denying her appointment to any judicial position:

This is not denied it is just dismissed as irrelevant.  Really?  Read the following and it becomes clear that Kagan is another extreme radical determined to transform this country.  Sadly, if Republicans do not squash this outrageous nomination, she will be given ample opportunity to do exactly that: 

 “Through its own internal feuding, then, the SP [Socialist Party] exhausted itself forever and further reduced labor radicalism in New York to the position of marginality and insignificance from which it has never recovered. The story is a sad but also a chastening one for those who, more than half a century after socialism’s decline, still wish to change America. Radicals have often succumbed to the devastating bane of sectarianism; it is easier, after all, to fight one’s fellows than it is to battle an entrenched and powerful foe. Yet if the history of Local New York shows anything, it is that American radicals cannot afford to become their own worst enemies. In unity lies their only hope.”

So what if she tried to ban military recruiters from Harvard.  So what if she is openly gay.  (The two are related: one of the primary reasons she opposed the military was because of the “moral injustice” of the don’t ask don’t tell policy.)  Even Ruth Bader Ginsburg decided against Kagan on this one!

So what if she has never decided a case and there is no documentation of her thought process regarding major judicial decisions.  In the deluded minds of the liberal left the only true value is political correctness.   Our traditional values are irrelevant to the few, the proud, the chosen, intellectual elite. 

The following article from Jewish World Review demonstrates that Kagan is a secular humanist who will forgive anything if the person’s world viewpoint is politically correct:

The plagiarism in this case was not an isolated incident, it was pervasive.  Ironically it involved a book about the liberal left’s successful strategy to deny Robert Bork’s appointment to the Supreme Court, because he could not pass the liberal litmus test. 

Republicans need to take a stand against allowing this radical a life time appointment to the Supreme Court.  We need to demand that they resist this just as strongly and just as effectively as the Democrats resisted the nomination of Robert Bork.  I suggest we borrow from the strategy used by Ted Kennedy:

Here is what Kennedy said:

“Robert Bork’s America is a land in which women would be forced into back-alley abortions, blacks would sit at segregated lunch counters, rogue police could break down citizens’ doors in midnight raids, schoolchildren could not be taught about evolution, writers and artists could be censored at the whim of the Government, and the doors of the Federal courts would be shut on the fingers of millions of citizens for whom the judiciary is—and is often the only—protector of the individual rights that are the heart of our democracy… President Reagan is still our president. But he should not be able to reach out from the muck of Irangate, reach into the muck of Watergate and impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans. No justice would be better than this injustice.”

None of what Kennedy said was true about Robert Bork or his position on any issue, but, sadly, all of the following is very true with regard to Elena Kagan.  Here is the speech Republicans should give now: 

Elena Kagan’s America will be a country we no longer recognize.  It will be a country where gay marriage will be imposed by an activist judiciary that believes its own moral value system is the only one that matters.  It will be a country where freedom of religion primarily means freedom from Christianity.  It will be a country where the capitalism that made us the most prosperous nation on earth will be replaced by a socialist redistribution of wealth.  It will be a country where political correctness is more important than abiding by the law or well-established ethical standards.  President Obama is still our president, but he should not be able to reach out into the cesspool of his radical past to impose his reactionary vision of the Constitution on the Supreme Court and the next generation of Americans.  

Kennedy got it right.  “No justice would be better than this injustice.”
