-----Original Message----- From: The Pen [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, February 11, 2010 7:21 PM Subject: So Let's Mobilize! 80% Of ALL Americans Oppose Supreme Court Edict Declaring Corporations To Be People, Bulk Bumper Stickers Available and More
In a moment, the 5th installment of our legal analysis of the various inexcusable errors in the EDICT by five Supreme Court wolves to rip apart limits on corporate influence on the people's elections. But first, a major poll released just yesterday by the Washington Post reports 80 percent of all Americans, crossing all party lines, are opposed to this indefensible ruling (65% STRONGLY opposed). Now it is our job to mobilize all those people to take real action to reverse it as a practical reality. In the first instance there must be congressional legislation (already in process) to mitigate the damage to our Constitution in the short term, while we are working on the optimum repudiating constitutional amendment as the direct long term cure. Here's a short list of things YOU can do right now to help build the visibility of this movement: 1) In response to your many requests we have set up a special page where you can order bulk quantities (packs of 25, 50 and 100) of the incredibly hot Supreme Court protest bumpers stickers for your political group, your special event, for swap meets, etc. Based on your input and feedback we have set the price as low as we can in quantity, and still to keep the initiative going. Bulk Bumper Stickers: http://www.peaceteam.net/bumper_stickers_bulk.php 2) If you just want one of the "Corporations Are NOT The People" or "Impeach The Supreme Court 5" bumper stickers for YOURSELF, remember we will continue to give them away entirely for free to anyone who wants one. Now that we have the second printing in house, all requests in so far will ship tomorrow by first class mail, so please get your request in ASAP if you have not already. No donation required, but appreciated, which is what makes it possible for us to send stickers to anyone who cannot make a donation right now. Free Individual Bumper Stickers: http://www.peaceteam.net/bumper_stickers.php 3) Help us give the bumper stickers away by putting a button on your site linking to the page above. Get the code from the section at the very top of any of the bumper sticker pages or the action pages on these issues. We KNOW thousands of you have blogs and web pages of your own of various kinds. It is so easy, just copy the short code block and paste it into your page code, and you will automatically get a courtesy link back on all our own pages. We need EVERYBODY to post these buttons. C'mon folks, let's get serious. 4) And most importantly, spread the word about the action pages so we can generate as many messages to Congress as possible. Email all your friends with the links. If you are on Facebook or Twitter use the special resource links below for them, and all aspects of the social media, to spread the word. With 80% of the entire country on the side of truth and justice we SHOULD be able to generate 100 million action page submissions on this. C'mon folks, let's get serious. Here are all the links. Corporations Are NOT The People Action Page: http://www.peaceteam.net/action/pnum1029.php Impeach The Supreme Court 5 Action Page: http://www.peaceteam.net/action/pnum1030.php The above are the regular action pages, for Facebook use these links: [Facebook] Corporations Are NOT The People: http://apps.facebook.com/fb_voices/action.php?qnum=pnum1029 [Facebook] Impeach The Supreme Court 5: http://apps.facebook.com/fb_voices/action.php?qnum=pnum1030 And this is the Twitter reply for the Corporations Are NOT The People action @cxs #p1029 And this is the Twitter reply for the Impeach The Supreme Court 5 action @cxs #p1030 5) And while we are talking about sending emails to friends, be sure to add links for any of the above to your own email "signature", to put them at the bottom of each of your own outgoing emails. If you are not sure how to do it, check out the help function of your email program, or email us and we'll provide tech help. OK then, now here we go with the fifth installment of our analysis of the worst errors in the unleash the corporations ruling from The Supreme Court 5. And we don't mind telling you we still have quite a slog to go yet, so if you are getting the impression that some law school could build an entire semester's lecture course around EVERYTHING that is wrong with this case, as an text book example of bad legal work, it is because they could. We have already covered what an abortion on the facts the decision was in so many ways. Based on this foundation of factual smoke, Kennedy, writing for the Supreme Court 5 (including also Roberts, Alito, Scalia and Thomas), then proceeds to build his castle of the preposterous by committing every sin of legal case precedent citation possible. To help you understand what is really going on here, first we must explain the concept of "weight". Simply put, when reviewing the language of previous case precedents, which are presumed to be binding on all court decisions to follow at the same court level or lower, all words in a decision are not equal. The greatest weight, indeed the only thing that is SUPPOSED to be followed is the essential heart of the decision itself, the key language that explains the logical basis for what the court actually ordered, the WHY of what they in fact did. This is known as the essential "holding". This is what is meant by a "controlling" opinion, the whole basis of stare decisis. Elsewhere in an opinion a court may comment on other matters, perhaps to suggest they might have been open to arguments that could have been made but were not, perhaps to indicate they were expressly NOT ruling on a particular alternate basis, footnotes of tangential interest, or whatever. Since the actual decision did not turn on any of these things, this is what is generally known as "dicta", the judicial equivalent of shooting their mouths off. "Dicta" is not binding on any later court decision, so while it may be referred to in a later decision as context for the state of mind of members of a previous court in a prior case, it has much less weight than the "holding". Finally, there may be separate opinions by individual or smaller groups of justices either concurring (agreeing with the majority on some part of the holding but amplifying with additional reasons NOT endorsed by the majority) or dissenting (disagreeing with the reasoning of the majority holding). Of all these things, whatever is found in a dissenting opinion carries the LEAST weight of all as far a later court should be concerned. This would be the opinion of the side that LOST, the minority, the side that would not join the majority that carried the decision, the judicial equivalent of griping. And yet, this entire decision, which every person capable of critical thinking is so upset about, is riddled with references to, and fundamentally based on, dissents and other divergent minority opinions mostly by Gang of 5 themselves. (opinion pp. 11, 15, 16, 22, 26, 27, 28, 29, 31, 33, 35, 36, 37, 38, 40, 44, 46, 47, 49). Often these dissents are deceptively not even identified as "dissent", listed only labeled as "opinion" in Kennedy's new logical hatchet job. Moreover, many were the dissents in the very cases that this new decision now so rudely presumes to overturn. And Kennedy has the utter unabashed gall to conclude his compilation of basically his own dissents and those of his cronies to state, "For the reasons stated above, it must be concluded that Austin was not well reasoned". (opinion p. 47) But all he's REALLY saying is that they were right all along, as they turn the whole concept of judicial precedent completely on its head. Well, in a sense they WERE "right" all along ... far, far, extreme, off the deep end right. And the obvious danger now is that having finally executed their long plotted judicial palace coup (three of them dissented in 2007 in the WRTL case that they should have done it then, but perhaps Roberts and Alito, still new on the bench, feared the political uproar that has in fact resulted now), now suddenly you can be sure that this decision will be elevated by them to the most sacred stare decisis precedent that ever was. If a first year law student turned in a piece of work like this, cobbled together as it is from dissents, and dicta from stray footnotes (for example opinion p. 25), from other cases, they would earn nothing but a dismissive scowl from their professor. Unfortunately these five incorrigible men are now Supreme Court justices, until the people act to remove them. Oh, but it gets so much worse, for even where Kennedy does cite from controlling opinions he dishonestly twists and misconstrues their actual holdings. For that, he would have been, and should be expelled. But for that analysis, we will have to keep you in suspense a little while until the 6th scary episode in this series coming soon to an email inbox near you.
