Goodwin Liu was nominated for the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals by President Obama. Liu’s such an extremist that even a considerable number of Democrats opposed the appointment. As a result, Liu’s nomination went down in flames on Wednesday.Let’s go to Senate majority leader Harry Reid for a comment via NetRight Daily:

 

 

Liu was nominated by Obama in 2010 and again in 2011for a seat on the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals. The Senate Judiciary Committee had approved him by a vote of 10-8. Had Liu been confirmed by the Senate, many expect that he would have eventually been promoted to the Supreme Court.

 

As Harry Reid noted of Goodwin Liu after meeting with him, “The court of appeals is where law is made, and we need the finest minds in the world for that.”

 

We’re looking for volunteers. Who’d like to tell Harry that the courts are supposed to interpret the law and the legislature is supposed to make it?

What a moron.

“The court of appeals is where law is made, and we need the finest minds in the world for that.”

 

Well this comes as no surprise. The biggest threat to liberalism is elections and when you shift law making power from elected officials to unelected officials it allows for the rampant implementation of ideology without consent of the American people. All the elected officials have to do is pass vague laws and allow them to be interpreted by their stacked courts in a way that fits their agenda. Constitutional or unconstitutional, it does not matter.

 

This is another example of why it’s not just about putting Republicans in office, but rather putting people in office that will fight to give power back to its rightful owners, the American people.
