Monarchy or Supreme

 While it claims to be a nonpartisan, neutral arbiter of the law,[ The Supreme Court], its conservative majority was deliberately cultivated to expand religious freedom for conservative Christians at the expense of the rights of those deemed less worthy of protection. (MSNBC)

Once again, a Justice of the Supreme Court, is in the news, for creating the news, and not for acting as an impartial Jurist. Justice Alito, a bible-thumping, conservative-leaning political figure, who somehow believes that the Founding Fathers, secretly did not intend this nation to have a divide between Church and State, had apparently confided to the Evangelical Christians associated with the Bring Back Christianity crowd at Hobby Lobby, by divulging the outcome of a closely watched religious freedom case, Burwell v. Hobby Lobby, in which the court held that private corporations can demand religious exemptions from the Affordable Care Act’s requirement that employer health plans cover contraceptives — this LEAK is the second from which both rulings were penned by Alito. The first was a leaked draft of the decision in Dobbs v. Jackson Women’s Health Organization, overturning the right to an abortion.


 I am SICK AND TIRED of this level of hypocrisy performed by the cadre of Christian Conservatives and honestly must wonder, how in the world the common citizen can survive the ever-flowing Tsunami of double standards! Sure there must be ways and means to stop this suicide of democracy, like creating a law that the Supreme Court Justices no longer serve a life term on that bench. The Supreme Court Justices actually do not have any other court from which enforcement of recusal can be mediated, as the Supreme Court is the highest court in our nation. This means there are currently NO other courts to keep a check and balance on the Supreme Court. Some higher authority needs to be implemented…or else the SUPREMES might as well be Monarchy!
