The Constitution is in the Balance on September 8th

The mainstream media is currently in a frenzy defending the nationally broadcast speech to our school children by Barrack Obama on September eighth. This is just one in a string of many attempts to socialize our nation. In this attempt he tried to use the United States Department of Education as a tool to indoctrinate our children, complete with lesson plans asking our children to complete exercises in support of his agenda both prior to and after his speech. These were presented in the form of lesson plan ideas posted on the homepage of the Department of Education. Fortunately, Fox News and others caught it, and despite immediate spin, the Dept. of Ed. was forced to modify their requests.

The speech is still planned and many schools and school districts are now being bombarded by the calls of concerned parents and are being forced to come up with policy in regard to the speech. Schools in North Texas will not be showing it at all. Parents across the nation have decided to make it a “Skip Day” and to keep their children home in an act of civil disobedience. The actions of these parents is keeping within the finest traditions of freedom and protecting their rights as parents to educate their children with their own ideals and not those of the state.

Unfortunately, this very important issue is not the reason that I am writing this. Although monumentally important, there is an event that is taking place on the same day, at almost the same time. It is an ordinary event that is takes place hundreds of times a day here in the United States, at least on the days when the courts are open.

In a federal courtroom in California at 8:30 a.m. PT there will be a discovery and motion hearing held in the courtroom of the Honorable David O. Carter. Judge Carter, a former active duty marine and combat veteran, is the ONLY judge that has shown any willingness  to honor his oath to “protect and defend the Constitution…”. He stated in the previous hearing that technicalities would not prevent the case from going forward and that “as a former Marine he recognizes the importance of having a constitutionally qualified president.” The case is Barnett et al v. Obama et al. Dr. Orly Taitz, attorney for the plaintiffs, is hoping for an order of expedited discovery. If granted, she stated that she would immediately head to Occidental College and then board a flight to Hawaii.

We can only hope that Judge Carter remains true to his word. We shall see by noon on Tuesday.
