Returning to my supportive group of (then) current lecturers and tutors was extremely difficult. They seemed so boring! (They were extremely supportive and they delivered us through successfully).

As a legal student, having access to Prof Turley must be like my Carl Sagan experience. Everything else is dull!

I also use the “intent” of the founders for my renderings of the Constitution in the provisions, and also the manner in which it was to be ratified (per the power of the 9th which precedes even the 10th with respect to any further “lawful” amendments to it).

I write for a blog also, http://www.backupamerica.org. Hope you will read some of what I have written also on the violations which continue to place this country and its law now under British interpretation, rather than our Constitution – and do blame the law schools also for their negligence in challenging some of the decision which have been reached by rogue courts and judges that have resulted in the fact that the courts are now just as political as the other two branches and clearly operating outside their lawful jurisdiction and duties and powers of office, many times using their own court rules to violate it.

Great reading. And keep up the good work since those judges also need to be held to the fire for their continued treason.

You’re one.

Hooray for you!!

RE: YOUR BLOG “MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKER CHARGED WITH SEX ASSAULT” (MAY 2008)

I am a lawyer and I am writing to inform you that the charges laid against Mr. Bijan Anjomi by the City of Toronto police were withdrawn by the Crown Attorney’s Office in September 2008. Your blog refers to the laying of the charges but fails to recognize or report the withdrawal of them some 12 months ago. Here is the telephone number of the Crown Attorney’s Office in the Ministry of the Attorney General of Ontario for your ease of reference: 416.327.5990 or 416.327.5917

Please remove your report of and all records from your index and archive pertaining to charges laid against Mr. Anjomi as this is misleading at best and somewhat libelous.

Please govern yourself accordingly.

Yours sincerely,
Jeunesse L. Hosein, B.A., LL.B.

Consider an article about the House bill (Senate amendment) against ACORN funding as bills of attainder.

I searched your site, but didn’t find a reference to this astonishing news. Can you weigh in on the matter?

“The Supreme Court may be about to radically change politics by striking down the longstanding rule that says corporations cannot spend directly on federal elections. If the floodgates open, money from big business could overwhelm the electoral process, as well as the making of laws on issues like tax policy and bank regulation…”

Would you please review the upcoming case Citizen’s United vs FEC? It seems that the Court has decided to extend it’s reach.

All of a sudden it’s a problem if a president wants to talk to school kids. People if you don’t see the hatred and hidden agendas of these people, make a fist and punch yourself in the face. It wasn’t enough just to vote for the President, we have to be a voice in the process. Active participants. Where are we now after the election. Virtually invisible while “Crackers gone wild” plays out everywhere throughout the political landscape. Healthcare reform is for us, about us. It is the one singular thing the president can do for us without being overtly racial. How many of us avoid doctors visits because of lack of insurance? Are we even paying attention anymore. “Crackas gone wild” showing up at town hall meetings with loaded guns, shouting down a woman confined to wheel chair and the vilest of hall, continuing to refer to the president as Hitler. Some crazy cracka just smacked a woman’s two year old at the mall because the baby was crying repeatedly. bLouis Farrakhan finally admitted that while he was not directly involved in the assination of Malcom X, he contributed to the climate that lead to Malcom’s death. The very same thing is happening right now before our eyes and we are silent. Where are all the gun toting thugs, the load mouth baby mammas, the black cops that’ll shoot an unarmed black man in the back before they’ll speak out in support of the president. Well I can’t sit by the sidelines any longer. Crackas can go wild if they want to but if something bad happens it’s gonna be a whole lot of slow singing and flower bringing.

I was hoping you could take a look at Professor Paulsen’s defense of the torture enablers: http://www.stthomas.edu/law/academics/curriculum/PaulsenSenateTestimony.pdf and see if you’d be interested in coming here to debate him or possibly them (Delahunty, although Delahunty has refused prior offers to debate).

Judge Orders Westlaw/Lexis To Remove Opinions In Klein v. Amtrak.

Amtrak agreed to a confidential settlement with two PA teens who suffered massive burns in 2002 after they climbed aboard a parked railcar and stepped too close to a live wire. Part of the settlement calls for the trial judge to vacate prior rulings in the case, and have them erased from Lexis and Westlaw.

The August 10 order to vacate, issued by US District Judge Lawrence Stengel, stated that “by separate written communication . . . the Court shall direct LexisNexis and Westlaw to remove the Decisions and Orders listed below from their respective legal research services/databases.”

How could such an order be enforced against an entity that wasn’t party to the suit, not to mention the First Amendment defenses that would save them in a contempt proceeding?

A Westlaw rep told The Legal Intelligencer [http://www.law.com/jsp/article.jsp?id=1202433145853&thepage=1] that the company automatically clears vacated opinions from the database – but that can’t be right since I’ve got a pile of vacated Westlaw cases sitting on my desk. Nevertheless, the Klein docs have been removed, so it appears they took the easy road in deciding to comply with the judge’s . . . order, request, direction . . . or whatever you call it.

As of yesterday, the opinions were still available on the Internet. Volokh links to some of them at this post, saying they should be preserved for future litigators and scholars. I’m not so altruistic. I just think the order, if anything more than a non-binding suggestion, is an absurd breach of the First Amendment. So I’ll link to them below, via the hard-drive PDFs I created yesterday, at the off chance they start disappearing from the web.

This morning I heard part of an interview you gave on one of the cable networks about the rights of protesters to carry firearms near the President. I believe I heard you say that there really was nothing that could be done to prevent these people from expressing their Constitutional rights under the Second Amendment by carrying a gun.

I would counter your position by pointing out that both major political parties have no problem truncating the First Amendment “freedom of speech” rights of protesters by forcing dissenting opinions to be expressed at distances of up to a mile away in so-called “free speech zones”, as to avoid possibly offending the sensibilities of said public officials and office holders. As obviously unconstitutional as this censoring of dissent is, there is no similar hue and cry in the corporate media to end this practice. I would hope that at some point you might point up this bit of hypocrisy in one of your regular appearances as a legal expert.

Thanks for your attention.

There is a reason George W. Bush trampled the Constitution. No, he is not a lawyer. But he wanted to be one. Bush applied to the law school at The University of Texas at Austin. He was rejected by Dean Keeton.

I enjoy your TV interviews; you slap them crooks around so elegantly. Why do I see you as “John the Giant Killer?” Because I see you maybe as the man who could really make a difference.

I want to bring the Congress to task over the mandatory use of Chemotherapy. In fact a fun thing might be an assault on the entire medical system, it could be an enlightening project for your law students.

I can prove to anyone who will listen, how to cure and prevent cancer for most all kinds, for most all people. I have deemed myself “the worlds leading cancer survival expert” because I have survived three different kinds of documented terminal cancer since 1995 and I know absolutely why and how! And I say; it is the treatment that is killing us and not the cancer!!”

But I can’t legally say “-hit!” When I look up I don’t see folks eager to learn the secret, I see a gigantic steam roller, puffing steam, and shaking the ground around me. I want to scream the truth, but the corrupted deceit has drowned the message of “anyone” opposing the gargantuan medical monopoly.

Let us say it out plain and clear;”because of the policies and the laws imposed by our congress, Human Beings or suffering immensely and dying because of the use of Chemo!” “Information is being withheld with criminal intent to perpetuate and protect a high dollar and well guarded secret, at the expense of the lives of “many Human Beings!”

Will you be my attorney? I will simply speak the truth. At least let me speak to you? Write back? I will explain in a very few words why and how we must revive our immune system “the root core of our life!” Chemtherapy is the practice of injecting poison into our bloodstream; and the immune system is the first thing to die.

Our immune system is the only thing that can do any healing; it has constructed this wonderful masterpiece, cell by cell since conception, 99.9% to a perfect blueprint with over Three Billion parts that all work together real-time with a God given positive inbred drive to survive.

Why do we think that poison can improve this show?

Regarding your item on Bush, Cheney et al in 2002. That which you fear did not take place.

Have you written or sounded off on any of the insanity that is going on in Washington that began shortly after 12 noon on January 20th, 2009?

Are you so idealogically twisted that you do not see the threat to all of our freedoms that are brewing in our nation’s seat of power right now?

I used to think you were an intelligent man; now I fear you are one of the enemy.

I enjoy your comments on MSNBC. Also on your Blog which I just re-discovered.
I do have one question: In regard to the Republicans not wanting to investigate the CIA abuses/torture, I was trying to remember if the Republicans raised any objections to the Watergate Hearings and how similar the CIA abuses are to Watergate re: Abuse of Power?
Thank you for any reply you would care to make.

Just a note to let you know that I enjoy listening to you when you are on Countdown. As a young voter, I am fairly disgusted with the current course taken concerning the alleged crimes commited by the previous administration. I believe this is the atmosphere that is responsible for a lack of younger voters casting votes. We see this lack of desire to persue these allegations based purely on politics. Had I commited these alleged crimes, I would be persued vigorously. Why do the laws not apply across the board to ALL Americans? Including those in office.

Sincerely,
John Schrader

Palin’s pregnant kid, for example, somehow became a paragon of responsible decision-making. If Barack Obama had been running for president with a pregnant-out-of-wedlock teen, he would have been eviscerated by the Christian right (who also would have absurdly denied that there were ANY racial undertones to their criticism).

cheers!

me: thanks, doll

I love the way you write! you’re funny, clear and to the point! “have at ‘em’ I say!

cheers!

me: seems that there are two new members of the christian right to join this club…. senator ensign (r-tx) and governor sanford (r-sc)
and all they have to do to be forgiven is to stand up at some RNC lunch, cry a little after going on tv to disclose and confess and get a round of applause and return to work. one wonders what the applause is for, being a successful fornicator or crying at their confession.

at least when I fornicate i do so unabashedly and with no fear of losing my job, my family, friends or self-respect.
and when I’m dead, I’ll be dead and that will be it… just another woman who lived life on her own terms whenever possible.

Mike,

You missed the point. Sex before marriage is wrong. Your angle is saying that people don’t marry for love but rather lust. This wrong. People simply don’t want commitment anymore. Just because divorce is high in the Bible Belt, doesn’t give moral right to have sex before marriage. There are consequences to these actions. Unfortnately, BOTH women and men want to play but not pay. If they are not held accountable by our country then God will hold the country responsible and yes they will be judged when their time on earth expires. “Blessed is the nation whose lord is God”

me: see, this is how it works in the real, adult world: you get to be in charge of your life. I get to be in charge of my life. this means that neither you or your religious leaders get to tell me, my sister, my nieces, my daughter or any other females what to do with our bodies. sex is only wrong when someone does not want to copulate but is forced to out of duty or religious belief or as a result of rape.
sex is fun. it feels good.
morality is an individual thing. we all get to sign up for the morals and standards that suit us best.
abortion is not only a remedy to single women who do not choose to carry a pregnancy to term. it is also a remedy for married women who decide with their doctors on a private and legal medical procedure. It’s no one’s business but hers.
don’t like it? too bad.

Paul and Silas were in jail and an angel rexcued them. Paul was not upset with the teachings of Peter but rather his hypocrisy. Peter had eyes opened from Cornelius-a Gentile then kept going back to the laws of the Jews. Works takes away from the free gift of salvation that is why it is by faith.

Finally, our founders never intended their to be a separation of church and state but rather both hand in hand. Ben Franklin began prayer in our congres which still exists today. The ten commandments are posted in the Supreme Court. The llaw only states that Congress shall make no LAW establishing a religion or preventing the free exercise there of. George Washington was a man of prayer. Don’t try to refute this by showing their imperfections because we are all imperfect people.

Mr. Boyle,
Paul was mad because James (Jesus Brother), Peter and the rest of the Jerusalem Church didn’t follow his teachings. They felt, quite rightly, that they were chosen as Jesus disciples, rather than Paul. He was someone who persecuted Jesus followers and the felt off his horse with heat stroke on his way to Damascus. Since he was annoying to them they sent him off to proselytize the gentiles. Jews had no reason to follow Paul and to be frank with you I see no reason to follow him either. I am quite satisfied with my religion. As for the rapture coming I don’t agree. Revelations was written perhaps 200 years after Jesus and never should have been put into the Christian Canon. The irony of it is that most biblical historians believe that revelations was written about the roman persecution of Christians and then a few years later the Romans took over Christianity and placed its’ predictions far into the future. This is what I believe.

As I’ve also written I don’t believe that any religion offers more than an approximation of God and so all people who are cognizant of the Golden Rule will be in heaven, if there is one. This discussion pains me though because I have no desire to question anyone’s deeply held faith, as long as they offer me the same courtesy. As you can see throughout our dialogue I’ve treated you with respect.

I fear though, that in your earnestness you are beginning to disrespect me. In truth you are showing a side of yourself that you have heretofore hidden. You are here on this site to proselytize. In your proselytizing you are being disrespectful, because none here are seeking it and most who post here have their own rather informed view of their faith, or lack of it. I have indeed studied Christianity so there is nothing you can tell me about it. I have my beliefs and you are welcome to yours. However, please do not try to impose your beliefs upon me, or upon my country.

It is in this respect that some Christians have shown disrespect for others. In America our founding fathers were adamantly opposed to blending church and state. In fact their ancestors came to America to escape religious persecution. A vocal minority of Christians in the US today are trying to erase the church/state boundaries and make their teachings the law of the land. We see the same phenomena in some Islamic lands, though with a different faith. The end result is the same: Bigotry and Religious Intolerance. Please do not assist in making our country like some in the Middle East, except ruled by the religious laws that you agree with. This would mean disaster for us and for our children.

In writing this I understand that you are anticipating that “The Rapture” and therefore care little for this planet, your progeny and the possible future. I urge you to believe as you will, but in the small (from your perspective) possibility that you are wrong about dates and for the sake of our progeny, please treat this world and you fellow human beings with the respect I’ve accorded you.

PS: Social Security is a supplement to retirement. It is too bad that most Americans use it as their only source of income. What did government do? They sided with the people who made bad decisions and now they are doing it again. Taking from one group to give to another never works!!!!

Mr. Boyle,
As a Jew I do not believe in heaven or hell. I believe, as do most Jews, that humanity’s mission is to make THIS world into a paradise. We do not believe that this world is evil since it is infused by God. The two great missions for humanity according to the Jewish Religion are to “Heal the World” and to do works of charity(Tikkun Olam & Tzedakah).
How someone behaves under these two guiding principles is how God judges them, despite the religious beliefs, or lack of same.

Now approaching my mid 60’s I have spent a lifetime trying to live up to these principles. I believe I have done so faithfully. However, the other Jewish impetus is the seeking of knowledge and that I have also done. I have studied various religions, including Christianity and my outlook on God is deistic and comfortable with the knowledge that good people of any belief are loved by God. No one religion, though most profess to, can completely explain the Deity. That is because we lack the stature as human beings to understand God’s meaning or purpose. I choose to live my life as a Jew, because Judaism resonates with me. I won’t impose my beliefs on you, if you don’t try to impose yours on me, or my country.

“Mike, Your parents may not have had a problem with your forniation but I can assure you God does.”

Au Contraire, Mr. Boyle, I can assure you that God does not!
Part of the reason for my confidence is that I have actually done a lot of reading on how Christianity came to be. Most of the principles of what you call Christianity today were set down by a Pagan Roman Emperor at the Council of Nicaea 320CE. Constantine needed the Christians to solidify his power and so hi-jacked it and molded it into a religion that was more familiar to Roman sensibility. Even December 25th was a birthday of the God Mithra, also born of a virgin and
before Mithraism (the predominant religion of the Roman Legions)also marked the celebration of the ancient winter solstice holiday of Saturnalia. This holiday traditionally was celebrated with sexual orgies.

Now as far as sex and Christianity went there were Christian Bishops, like Iraneus who was misogynist and there were the large part of the Gnostics, who believe sex was dirty. The Gnostics were eliminated, but their beliefs stayed. Misogyny
fit in well with the roman outlook and so stayed also. None of this had much to do with Jesus and/or Jewish teachings.

If there is a heaven, despite my “fornication,” I’ll be there. I wonder though how many of your fellow parishioners will be there too?

There is a God and I pray that you find him through his son Jesus Christ. God said “If my people who are called by name will hunble themselves and pray and seek my face and TURN from their wicked ways, then they will hear from heaven and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.”

Indentured servant:

FORNICATION

Forniation is sin? What is “forniation” so I dont do it without knowing? If I did forniate and did not know what it was would I be a sinner?

Please I don’t want to be a forniator without foreknowledge.

Rom: 3:23

A christian will be judged by what he has done because of his faith in Christ. An unbeliever will be judged by what they did but they are not nder grace. NO! You can’t dowhat you want and expect to God to forgive. God forgives a repentant heart. I ahve always been consistent in my message.

Mike, Your parents may not have had a problem with your forniation but I can assure you God does. This is peopl’es biggest problem. They sin frely because they don’t believe there to be a consequence. It should also be noted that when we sin, we can ask forgiveness. We however can’t lve in sin. To live in sin with no uneasy feeling is a great sign of being lost for eternity.

Thank you for beating me to this. I dated a “Christian” woman for years, and she believed (as does Boyle, I assume) that the only criterion for salvation is faith. In other words, you can do ANYTHING, either before or while believing in Christ as our savior, and still be saved. In my opinion, buying into that deal (whether it turns out to be true or not) is immoral.

Mr.Boyle,
I had lots of sex prior to my almost 3 decade marriage, where I’ve never been unfaithful or even flirted with another woman and nobody ever became pregnant. My parents, whose marriage you extol, saw nothing wrong with non-marital sex as long as their sons behaved responsibly. I agree with them and I reject your belief, but defend your right to have it. I do believe though that if you could you would impose your belief on the rest of us and to me this is not only wrong, but it is curiously anti-God. This is because in the teachings you follow people have to make choices in order to be judged. If you take away their choice, then how can they be judged?

You would of course answer that Jesus knows what is in everyone’s heart and I would respond by saying your view of the world is like that of a puppet show, with God pulling the strings. This to me would be blasphemy in the sense that the creator of the Universe would be way beyond creating a planet and humanity to watch a puppet show.

There is also a dichotomy when you state:

“There are consequences to these actions. Unfortnately, BOTH women and men want to play but not pay. If they are not held accountable by our country then God will hold the country responsible and yes they will be judged when their time on earth expires. “Blessed is the nation whose lord is God”

Didn’t you say in posts way above this one that the determinant of entry into heaven is faith, not acts. If this is so then a true believer in Jesus, no matter how they’ve acted will be admitted to heaven. This doesn’t make sense and to me trivializes God.

You missed the point. Sex before marriage is wrong. Your angle is saying that people don’t marry for love but rather lust. This wrong. People simply don’t want commitment anymore. Just because divorce is high in the Bible Belt, doesn’t give moral right to have sex before marriage. There are consequences to these actions. Unfortnately, BOTH women and men want to play but not pay. If they are not held accountable by our country then God will hold the country responsible and yes they will be judged when their time on earth expires. “Blessed is the nation whose lord is God”
