As our Supreme Court is into looking to foreign courts for their rulings we finally have one they might be able to turn their backs on. Although…
A judge in Saudi Arabia has decided it is okay for husbands to slap their wives if they over-shop. Whoa!!! What??? The Supreme Court has GOT to love that one!!! I wonder what amendment they can stretch all to hell to make that one fit??? Come on, slapping your wife for overspending?? $540 for tennis shoes?? WHAT??? Bam, an open faced slap to the face. Then we can have stories for a month about how it’s good for men to get back to the values that made this country great. Thank you, Mr. President.
And what about the guy who was stoned in Iran for adultery!! Huh?? Darn, where was that rule about ten years ago??? Of course, if WE had that rule what would we do for good Lewinski jokes???
That’s the problem with the Supreme Court, they like to pick and choose what fits their personal agendas.
There are so many GOOD laws to choose from in the world, why not bring the ALL here. We can have canings for parking violations, whippings for speeding. We can behead homosexuals and stone women who refuse to take out the garbage. Ah, one of my personal favorites is keel hulling for a multitude of sins maritime sins. That’s the one where a rope is run from the bow to the stern of a ship and the offender is tied to the rope and dragged the length of the ship along the barnacles. It chews the flesh right off their bones. Wow, those guys knew how to have a good time!!
What, you probably are asking, does all this have to do with the Constitution of the United States??? You would have to ask the Supreme Court. They’re the ones who want to look beyond the Constitution for laws that fit their agendas. I’m sure they would say something about common sense dictating they not use laws like these, but... Why not?? There’s nothing to do with common sense about the ones they ARE using!! Their job is to see if a law fits to the framework of the Constitution. That’s it. Not all this political pap. Does the law fit the Constitution or not. Simple. If not, kick it back to the legislature from which it came and let them rework it to make it fit.
It’s a simple concept, but one that seems to be lost on the people who sit on the highest bench.
